In this episode of Passport to Everywhere, Melissa Biggs Bradley takes you on an unprecedented look at Venice through the eyes of two residents that have experienced the city in an intimate way. First Melissa transports you to Venice as she welcomes Countess Bianca Arrivabene, whose family operates and lives in the iconic Palazzo Papadopoli, an Aman Hotel. The Countess describes her day-to-day life in the city, how over-tourism is putting the magic of the city at risk, and the deep roots that her family has in Venice. Then Toto Bergamo Rossi, Director of Venetian Heritage, joins Melissa for a discussion about his organization’s work to preserve Venice’s rich history in the arts and his tireless efforts to celebrate the history of the city with his restoration work. Melissa closes out the episode with Destination Hacks, highlighting the most fascinating and beautiful spots in Venice, from where to eat to where to shop and sightsee.

Their story is now a legend in the world of luxury travel, and no one tells it better than Mary Celeste. by Passport to Everywhere with Melissa Biggs Bradley
