Take a book or munch on a Gianduiotto di passeggio from the Da Nico gelateria in the summer.

Wistful in winter: take a midnight walk in the freezing cold and take in the sound of the Giudecca Canal.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/3826 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/2911
Still, people complain about high prices in Venice, even the Venetians. I think the British are lucky on any trip, because there is no way you'll pay coffee and sandwich prices that we do over here! Just have a 'toast' (ham and cheese toasted sandwich) and a coffee and you'll pay 3 Euro depending on where you go. Even my Milanese friend couldn't believe prices in DuChamp on Camp Santa Margerita ("But how is it possible? I don't understand. HOW is it possible?") So, don't always believe the myths.

Also, hotels often decrease prices significantly in low season, and while often freezing, it is worth it for a deserted San Marco, and a real look at Venice.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/2911 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/2910 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/2910 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/2908 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/2908
