Which? Recommended Provider: Time Out Guides is rated top guidebook brand by Which? Survey, for level of detail, photography, quality of maps, ease of finding information and value for money. With the inauguration after ten years of the newly expanded Accademia gallery, Venice’s grandi maestri are fighting back against the lagoon city’s slew of cutting-edge contemporary offerings. And while lambent madonnas continue to preside in the ageless gloom of any number of ancient churches, the modernist jewel of Carlo Scarpa’s Olivetti showroom in St Mark’s square has been returned to the public after loving restoration.
Time Out Venice’s team of local experts gives the lie to La Serenissima’s reputation as unchanging museum. Charting new openings and major revamps in a city where it pays to look beyond the tourist-trade veneer and take a peek its own unique way of life, the guide leads you to restaurants where Venetians dine, shops where the glass really is blown in Murano and exquisite corners where the visiting hordes seem light years away.
