Venice Tour – 3 Day sample itinerary | A demo for enjoying your vacation

Venice, the city of water. Where you’ll be free from the honking noises and emissions from the automobiles. The majority of transits happen with the help of boats often referred to as gondolas. Being the most beautiful and unique city, Venice is the very first option for tourists while visiting Italy. Every corner of the city will make you grab a camera to freeze the moment you enjoyed. A simple 3 days trip to Venice from our Italy Tour Packages will be a perfect plan to cherish the moment for a lifetime.

Quick Tip:

Off-season is the perfect time to visit Venice because the weather will be bit cold and the prices will be more reasonable than the peak season. We personally suggest you guys to visit Venice between March and May, or September and November.

Sample 3 Day itinerary for Venice Tour

Day 1

Check out Ponte di Rialto (Rialto Bridge)

Start your day at 6:30 AM and stroll down to Venice’s oldest bridge crossing, the grand canal – Ponte di Rialto. And, proceed to the square at Sotoportego de l’Erbaria which is at the other side. A delicious espresso and croissant can be enjoyed outside in the early morning sunshine.

The view from Fondaco Dei Tedeschi

Venice’s rooftop is one of the best places in the city to catch a spectacular sunset. It is located on top of a shopping mall and is open to the public. However, they allow 40 persons once. Reservations neither can be made on-site or online.

Italy’s coolest bookstore

Libreria Acqua Alta, located off the beaten path in a quiet neighbourhood. The store name itself mentions the book store over high waters, the books and other stuffs are differently stacked in the bathtubs, mini gondolas instead of book shelves and racks to prevent the books getting damaged by flood water.

Get lost in the little streets

Walk around the canals, cross bridges and observe folks enjoying their coffee break. One of the nicest things to do in Venice. The main tourist areas might get incredibly crowded, but you can easily find a quiet spot for a well-deserved break.

Gondola ride

As said earlier, Gondola ~ the only mode of transport in and around Venice. A ride through Venice’s canals in the gondola, is a distinctive and romantic way to experience it once in a lifetime while you’re in a Venice tour. The locals charge 80 EUR for a 40 min ride in gondola around Venice, that is worth every penny.

Day 2

Palazzo Ducale & Bridge of Sighs

After spending some of the sweetest moments with the Venice’s canals and stores, spending some of the time for historic buildings would be much appreciable. Starting the day at the Doge’s Palace by 08.00 A.M. would be a perfect plan. This palace is built in the gothic venetian style which makes it as a must visit one.

Saint Marco Basilica

The Saint Marco Basilica is a must-see for its magnificent architecture and mosaics. You can have a look at these beautiful squares from the top of the cathedral. Also schedule a visit quite earlier to avoid long queues.

Piazza San Marco

Venice’s St. Mark’s Square, also known as Piazza San Marco, is the largest square in the Italian city. The Saint Marco Basilica, the Campanile (bell tower), and the Palazzo Ducale are some of Venice’s most well-known structures.

Day 3

Scala Contarini del Bovolo

A distinctive structure is hidden in one of Venice’s winding streets. You can get a bird’s-eye view of the city by ascending the building’s spiral staircase (Scala). From there, you can see the Saint Marco Basilica.

Basilisk Santa Maria Della Salute

Walk through Venice’s Dorsoduro, a neighborhood popular with students, after crossing the Ponte dell’Accademia bridge. Go to the island’s tip and turn toward Santa Maria Della Salute.

Sunset on the canals

Watch the sun set along the canals to cap off the day. Find a spot on the pier that is all your own, then take in the orange and purple hues of the Venetian canals.
