Itinerary

Venice
300 min

Venice is a unique city, built on more than 100 islands connected by canals and bridges, offering a romantic and timeless atmosphere. Its architectural wonders include St. Mark’s Square, St. Mark’s Basilica with its golden mosaics, the Campanile, and the Doge’s Palace, all symbols of the Serenissima's history. A must-do in Venice is a gondola ride, an unforgettable way to explore the city from the canals. Gondoliers skillfully navigate the boats, offering views of iconic landmarks like the Rialto Bridge, the Bridge of Sighs, and historic palaces reflecting on the water. Beyond gondolas, Venice offers a rich cultural and culinary scene. You can explore artisan shops, try cicchetti in traditional bacari, and visit the islands of Murano, famous for glassblowing, and Burano, known for its colorful houses and lace-making. Venice’s narrow alleys and bridges, like the Rialto and Bridge of Sighs, tell the story of a city like no other.
