Your Own Venice

If you've never been to Venice, you may find it more than a little confusing. If you've already been to Venice, you may wish you could know it better.This is where I come in.

My name is Erla Zwingle, and after nearly 20 years here, I speak not only Italian but also the Venetian dialect.  I am also the author of the National Geographic guidebook to Venice.

Whether you're a newcomer or an old hand, whether you are here for business or for pleasure, I can help make your trip memorable, easy, and fun. Just tell me what you like to do and I will make it happen. Even if you only have a couple of hours, I will help make them the way you want them to be, without the stress, confusion, or wasted time and energy that can often spoil what ought to be a wonderful experience.

I want to help you discover the Venice that appeals to you, the one that belongs to you: Your Own Venice.
