Join Kairos in Venice, Italy and spend a few days sailing and exploring this beautiful floating city and its protective island of Lido.
Starting in the city of Venice is a truly spectacular way to start a wonderful cruise onboard Kairos. This ancient city is built on 100’s of small islands connected by bridges, waterways and canals. with not a car in sight, take romantic trips on the famous Gondolas, visit streets packed with museums and galleries and dine at a plethora of bars and restaurants.
This weekend is also the annual Carnival of Venice where this floating comes to life in a sea of colour and celebration. Originally dating back to 1162, the Carnival marks the start of Lent, forty days before Easter and is famous for its beautifully elaborate festival masks.
Escape the tourist hustle and bustle with the tranquillity of your own boat to explore this fabulous part of the Mediterranean. Anchor away from the tourist’s eye in the Venetian Lagoon and visit the thin strip of an island named Lido, a natural barrier that protects Venice from the Mediterranean Sea. A seaside island, Lido is home to a long stretch of sandy beach, scattered with art nouveau architecture and, of course, numerous waterways.
