What do you want to know? We sailed out of Venice on another line.
We didn't sail out of Venice on DCL, but that is the most beautiful place to sail away from that you may ever see. You cruise right thru the channel and the scenery is amazing. We stayed several days in Venice before our cruise. It is very easy to get around if you do some homework. I think 2-3 (maybe 4) days would give you ample opportunity to see everything there. Great walking city. I would recommend getting the St. Mark's reservations ahead of time if you can still do that. We had our tickets in hand and walked right by a very long line of folks waiting to get in. Beautiful city, best sail away ever. Have fun.
Does Anyone have info or tips regarding sailing out of Venice. . .

We love Venice, and have been there twice, staying three nights each time. We sailed into Venice last week on another cruise line.Good hotel per for pre cruise and not to miss places in the city. . .

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Locanda Orseolo near St Mark's Square. It's a charming place with the nicest staff. It gets high marks on TripAdvisor.
Be sure to visit St. Mark's Basilica and go on a guided tour of the Doge's Palace.
