Lucio was a great host! He kept in touch with us via WhatsApp prior to our arrival to coordinate a time to meet at the Vaparetto stop. Once we arrived , he was there as promised to guide us to his Airbnb! He provided a map and took the time to circle landmarks to help us navigate the city and explained the water bus schedule which was useful for our departure. This location is a short walk from San Marco square but is far enough away from the tourist hot spots which will give you a true Venetian experience!
