Venice is an unfathomable experience. This glorious city, built on an archipelago of more than 100 islands, traversed by 200 canals, spanned by 400 bridges, continues to rise above the waters of the lagoon and the flowing tide of visitors. With over 20 hotels, from the traditional favourites to smaller family-run discoveries, no one offers a wider choice than us. Our unique Kirker Guide Notes will lead you to some excellent restaurants off the beaten track.
One of the most recent introductions to our programme, the Kirker Venice Walking Tour, takes place every Tuesday morning and is offered exclusively for any of our clients whether they are aficionados or first time visitors. The two hour tour with an experienced guide costs just £10 per person (winter) £20 (summer) and is a wonderful way to see Venice from the perspective of a local expert. Participants range from just two to a maximum of 15.
The stunning ‘Palazzo Ducale’ was the residence of the Doges and is the richest symbol of Venetian cultural, military, political and economic history. The tickets will allow you to avoid the lengthy queues and gain access to the Museo Correr and the National Archaeological Museum. If you have visited the Doge’s Palace before, we would be delighted to provide tickets to the Guggenheim with its modern art collection or the Accademia Gallery instead. See our advice on how many days to spend in Venice.
La Fenice is one of the world’s most historic opera houses. Originally built in 1790 it has twice burned down, in 1836 and again in 1996. It reopened in 2003 and has been sensitively restored to retain its original appearance. Tickets are hard to come by as most are sold to subscribers – however, we are able to source ours from recommended local agents and will arrange delivery of tickets direct to your hotel. Prices include the local agent’s handling fee plus just £10 per ticket administration charge and
so will be higher than face value. Please contact the Kirker Concierge on 020 7593 2286 for details of the performances, prices and availability.

May is a wonderful time to visit Italy, the weather is starting to warm but is still pleasant to stroll around during the day and the sun seems to be shining everywhere. I had the pleasure of visiting…
