Rediscovering Venice with The Frugality

Venice is well known as a picturesque, romantic city with gondola-filled canals. The distinctive Venetian architecture and the hub of St Mark's Square are images that are known the world over. Yet there's more to this city than meets the eye. So when Alex Stedman of The Frugality said she wanted to rediscover Venice having last visited a decade ago, we knew we had to help her plan a memorable trip.
