FORMAL DINNER: GALEONE VENEZIANO II
Address: The ship will take place at Fusina harbor
Have you ever been able to sail through the Venetian Lagoon in an historic boat launched by the Serenissima Republic? After an intensive meetings day, with the excellent on-board service of the supreme culinary arts of the Sirocco food workshop, and a truly enchanting atmosphere, the Venetian Galleon will lead you in discovering these sublime views.
This year’s Convention wanted to turn an ordinary dinner into an exciting and emotional one. But this once in a lifetime experience does not only involve having dinner while discovering Venice, but also you will have one hour to visit and have a nice walk while discovering the Calli Streets of Burano. Are you going to miss it?
