Description

Enjoy a day trip to Venice from Rome. Admire the enchanting Venice from its Grand Canal. A private driver will pick you up at your hotel in Rome to get an early train to Venice, where a private boat will be waiting for a peculiar cruise.

Explore Venice islands most authentically by sailing in a private boat on the most magnificent waterway on Earth. The cruise will lead you to the lively colors of Burano and Murano, the isle of the glass artworks world-famous for its chandeliers. Admire the details of the characteristic Gothic palaces. Explore St. Mark's Square and its surrounding area before returning to the rail station.

This day trip from Rome to Venice includes an unforgettable tour with private transfers by boat. Sailing on the most magnificent waterway on Earth, you will enter the lagoon and reach three of the more than 100 islands where inhabitants of the mainland sought refuge from the invading Barbarians.

Your driver will pick you up at the exit of Venice rail station. Murano is world-famous for Venice glass. You will have the chance to see a glassmaker blowing into a tube to create whatever he wants, even one of those whimsical chandeliers. Burano is picturesque, with its colorful houses along the canals. It is a paradise where inhabitants welcome you with flowers on their balcony and the art of “merletto” (a delicate lace).

At the end of the Venice Islands Tour, your driver will stop in St. Mark’s Square. You will have 3 hours to visit the marvelous city center. The main highlights are St. Mark's Basilica, the Doge's Palace, and the Bell Tower (visit from outside). You will discover other fascinating sites like the bridge of Sighs or Rialto area, a picturesque area of Venice with the ancient fish market shadowed by the majestic Rialto Bridge. Jewelers and other shops display their goods on the sides of this marble monument.

If you want a gondola ride, your guide will organize it at the last minute; remember to bring € 90.00 cash for the gondolier. Your private guide will assist you at the rail station. Upon arrival at Termini station, your driver will bring you to the comfort of your hotel.

  • Kindly share all full names as in your I.D.s; train tickets are nominal.
  • Select your preferred option: with tickets included or with tickets to buy at the best price with the local agency's help if needed.
  • Kindly inform us if there are CHILDREN UNDER 4 YEARS. If you agree, they can take this tour for free, sitting on your lap.
  • We suggest having a snack during the trip to optimize your precious time in Venice. The trains always have at least one restaurant/bar wagon or vending machines. Every wagon has its toilet.
  • Because of small docks and lots of traffic, private boats cannot wait more than 3-5 minutes for your embarkation. Drivers require maximum punctuality to guides and guests.
  • If you enter museums, we remind you that big bags or backpacks and big umbrellas are not allowed (regular bags, backpacks, and foldable umbrellas are permitted).
  • Cover knees and shoulders inside every Church in Italy.
