Irene met us at the apartment and explained where and how everything worked. Irene’s English was good and communication to arrange private taxis for us to and from the apartment was clear and smooth. This worked well for us although only having back packs and in theory, not far to walk, the heat was not us. We enjoyed the views from the water taxi without having to queue in the heat or jostle crowds on a full public taxi.
As our time in Venice was short, we enjoyed walking the streets, watching people looking at vistas and the half day tour of the outer islands. Wonderful. Lovely apartment to come back to which worked for our party of two couples.
