  • Discover a different Venice: Jean-Paul Morselli chose Venice to be his home town, and now offers tours of the lagoon city in historical boats. Here, he avoids the tourist spots - taking you instead to see some of his personal favorites. One of Europe’s most popular travel destinations, the Italian city has been heavily affected by the coronavirus, and restrictions to contain it. Jean-Paul hopes that sustainable tourism will give Venice a chance to recover after the pandemic. Join him on his tour!
    Please note: This video was filmed in fall of 2020.

    There was the time when this city was flooded with tourists, but now it's all deserted. Hope everything gets normal soon

    Thank you for this look inside Venice! I went there in 2016 and felt that it was a very touristy place and didn’t get a real sense of who the locals were and what life is really like there without tourism. Thank you for sharing this side of it - I’ll have to go again when it is safer to.

    Thanks for a nice little tour of your city. We were there several years ago with too many tourists. We were part of the problem. I hope we get back without the crush but certainly not vacant either. I like the small electric motors similar to Amsterdam. Good wishes for recovery!

    Whenever I see old buildings I wish I could take a tour inside. I want to see the back stairs and places not put on display. I see so many doors and passageways from the water and I wonder what the transition is like to the dry indoors. How do they keep the water from seeping up and in? This is my first time here, but I will look around. If you don't have things like that, then how about a tour of a house (or 100) entered from the water?

    Sustainable tourism is important, I believe. Mass tourism doesn't benefit small and local businesses. I saw that first hand when I visited Venice my first time. I basically hid at my hotel and my local cafe during the daytime because ship after ship of tourists were invading the city. After sunset, Venice came alive and I was able to really enjoy myself. No cruise ships anymore, please!

    The last I want to see when I spend time in Venice or other neighborhoods there are skateboards.

    "Napoleon, that little guy from France".... He was from Corsica, where everybody is named with Italian family names and speak this language 95% similar to standard Italian..... He was born Bonaparte

    So the Venice you like to participate in will now become a tourist trap because of your video.

  • @andrejpisut974
    @andrejpisut974 Před 2 lety +2

    I think this video should have been an interview with some real local, not a hipster company director who basically shows a brief look at his boats and random venice canals. Imagine being approached by him in a bar american style and guy starts to rant about his pretentious SuStainable company, and how he can't scateboard through historical plazas. Honestly as a company director he probably just sends and recieves emails, prolly meets with rich clients, for which he surely does not need to live directly in the expensive af. Venice but rather in Mestre. And a 12$ value meal? Thats some heavy venice markup.

    It would be a nice short video about an expat running boat shop in Venice but instead it was called for some unknown bewildering reason "Venice for independent travelers". Which part of this is going to help travelers is not clear, it's more of a clumsy commercial in the end. Not cool.
