With all excursions included in the fare, the cruise highlights on this relaxing holiday feature a tour of historic Venice; The Naval Museum and the Pavilion of Gondolas; dinner ashore at the 17th century stately home Villa Ca’Zen; a private visit to the wine cellars of Villa Widmann-Borletti; and a visit to Mantua with its magnificent Ducal Palace.
And all this while enjoying gourmet cuisine - prepared by a gourmet chef - and fine regional wines. Typical dishes include Fegato alla Veneziana; Risotto al Prezzemolo; Fegato; Lagoon Seafood accompanied by Lagrein Rosso Allegrini; Lugana Col Vetorax; and Prosecco Spago.
The 20-passenger La Bella Vita - as with all European Waterways’ vessels in the fleet - is fully crewed with a captain, gourmet chef, hostesses and a knowledgeable tour guide and offers comfortable accommodation in air-conditioned, en-suite cabins, with a spacious sun deck and loungers.
