Venice & the Lagoon
Venice is not only St. Mark's and the Grand Canal but a city-and-lagoon system of historic neighborhoods, working waterways and distinct islands, where thoughtful pacing can connect celebrated landmarks with quieter Venetian life.
See more than the headline sights.
Bon Voyage treats a destination as a connected world: history, neighborhoods, food, nearby escapes and the port or route that brought you here all belong to the same journey.
Venice became a maritime power by turning islands, canals and lagoon knowledge into one urban system.
UNESCO describes Venice and its lagoon as an inseparable whole whose settlement grew across 118 small islands. Founded in the fifth century and established as a major maritime power by the tenth, the city developed an extraordinary network of canals, architecture, trading connections and island communities shaped by the ongoing relationship between people and the lagoon environment.
