We'd really like to visit the Antico Cimitero Ebraico on The Lido in Venice. From what we've read, it sounds like you must book through the Jewish Museum in Venice. Has anyone done this? Is it worth a trip to the Lido? We'll only be in Venice a few days, although we've been there before. Would this likely be a private tour? This would be Sunday or Monday in late May. We're wondering if it's very hard to arrange. Margaret in Toronto
