The shores of the River Brenta are home to some of the Veneto’s most impressive villas, built by the Venetian nobility between 1550 and 1700.  These stately villas were constructed as summer residences and their incredible beauty is a testament to the wealth and power of their owners.  Collectively, they are known as the Palladian villas, after their famous architect, Andrea Palladio.  We will visit five of these remarkable villas, the luxury and elegance of the interiors is matched only by the breathtaking gardens and parks outside.
