Instead of a main street, the city is crossed by about 100 canals, with the Grand Canal serving as the main artery, stretching an impressive 4 kilometers in length and 70 meters in width. According to the flight schedule, you will travel with the guide to the center of Venice by public transport for your first introduction to the city.
