Top 11 Tourist Mistakes in Venice, Italy (and how to avoid them)
UPHOTO: Unless you travel light, pick your hotel's location carefully. Mistake 2: Staying in the wrong location.We often get e-mails that read like these paraphrased examples: "My 80-year-old father and 76-year-old mother, who uses a cane, have booked a prepaid room at a two-star hotel near the Rialto Bridge. Is there an easy way for them to get to their cruise ship's shuttle bus at the Piazzale Roma without walking?"
"We have a 6:30 a.m. flight from Marco Polo Airport. Will we have a problem reaching the airport from a hotel on Giudecca at that hour?"
Don't let a travel agent who's unfamilar with Venice make a booking decision for you, and don't choose a hotel just because the rate looked good on Orbitz or Expedia.
