     VENICESCAPES publishes a wide range of original reference materials developed for use with the guided itineraries. They include reference guides with historical maps and architectural descriptions, timelines, and anthologies which allow individuals to participate more fully in the tour and place the topics discussed into a broader historical context.

     Singular keepsakes included with the itineraries, these unique reference guides and timelines are also available at select bookshops, museums, and art galleries in Venice.  In addition, they can be acquired independently of the itineraries through VENICESCAPES.
