Itinerary Photos

A trip to Veneto, from the sea to the mountains, to fall in love with two world famous symbols of Italy : Venice, a magical, labyrinthine and intricate city, seemingly extending from a dream suspended between the earth and the Adriatic, the West and the East, and Cortina d’Ampezzo, surrounded by the sublime cloister of the Dolomites, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site for their immense geological and landscape value, which boasts one of the greatest ski and winter sports areas in the Alps but also offers numerous opportunities for exploration during the summer months.
