Creator's Key Takeaways

the historic part of Venice has a population of around about 60,000 permanently the bigger are area has about 250,000 but the city gets between 50,000 and 60,000 tourists a day

be extremely careful because you might find having a round of coffees between three or four of you could cost you €100

one of the best ways to get a great experience out of Venice is to get lost don't just stick in the main tourist areas

be an early bird and a late bir as I mentioned you know cruise ships come in and you know a lot of people get up late so actually if you want to really have benus to yourself
