After our hour of photography through the narrow streets and canals, Piazza San Marco, and the Rialto Bridge, we'll go on a gondola ride together (a private ride reserved just for you), where you can be photographed among the small canals and bridges that make this city unique. My service is high-quality (I've been published three times in National Geographic and have exhibited my photos in Milan, New York, London, and Paris), which is why I only work early in the morning, as the light is perfect and there are no tourists. You'll have a unique and unforgettable memory of your trip.
