Fine Art University Tour to Venice
Example study tour
A university required a group travel package to facilitate the students’ attendance at the Venice Biennale exhibition. This exhibition offers students the opportunity to experience one of the biggest and most inspirational art events in the world, with some of the university’s staff and student works proudly being displayed amongst the exhibits.
StudyLink created a 5-day study tour package to Venice, enabling students to explore the pavilions within the two locations of the event; the Giardini and the Arsenale.

After boarding an early afternoon flight to Venice, the group was met by our representative and coach provider for coach and Vaperetto transfer to their accommodation.
Their accommodation for 4 nights was the Casa per Ferie la Pieta Bed & Venice in the historical district of Venice. The group was perfectly located to local restaurants and within minutes of the Bridge of Sighs and St. Mark's Basilica.
Free time was scheduled in the evening for students to explore the nearby area and taste the local cuisine.

The Generator Venice
Generator Venice stands on the waterfront of the island of Giudecca, one short stop on the Vapporetto from Piazza San Marco. The hotel is a 200-year old Venetian Palazzo that was used as a grain house in the 1800s, and the building blends its history and character with contemporary design features.
