Aspettate sul ponte e tenere un occhio per le barche e le istruttrici con il logo Row Venice sui cappelli e t-shirt.
Troverai la batela e l’istruttrice al Row Venice Meeting Point, sul ponte al di fuori del cancello di ingresso della marina della Darsena Sacca Misericordia (vedi la mappa e le immagini sotto). Si trova nella parte nord di Venezia, alla fine della Fondamenta Gasparo Contarini, vicino alla Chiesa della Madonna dell’Orto.
Nota bene: Il Meeting Point non è un ufficio, abbiamo solo barche. Ci sarà qualcuno solo all’inizio e alla fine delle lezioni già programmate. Invece, scrivici qua.
Non troverete alcuna insegna “Row Venice” al meeting point, dalle foto potete evincere di essere al posto giusto. Aspettate sul ponte, la vostra istruttrice vi verrà da prendervi lì.

ROW VENICE opera in una zona tranquilla della città dove possiamo aiutarti a provare a vogare in un ambiente tranquillo. Potrebbe volerci un po’ di preparazione da parte tua per capire come arrivare al meglio. Quindi:
- review the maps carefully. Make sure you allow enough time to arrive traverse the city without hurrying and still to arrive a few minutes before your appointment. We will likely have another lesson following yours, and we want to make sure you get the benefit of your entire lesson.
- keep our contact info handy and make sure we have your en route contact should you be delayed, become lost, or in case there’s is a turn in the weather. Text messages work best, but phone calls and e-mails are fine as well.
- Make sure to keep our contact info hand and get in touch by text or email if you get lost or delayed—we need to know you’re on your way. Your instructor will wait only 30 minutes if we don’t hear from you.
- Note that between lesson start times there will be no one at the meeting point. Wait outside the boat marina or on the bridge, your boat and instructor will arrive at the appointed time.
We look forward to rowing with you in Venice!
