WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1. Stazione Roma Termini
Meet your tour leader at Roma Termini railway station for a hassle-free check-in. Board the high-speed train for a journey of a little over 3 hours to Venezia Santa Lucia Railway Station.
2. Piazzale Roma
Once in Venice, take a short walk from Venezia Santa Lucia railway station to the nearby vaporetto stop. Enjoy a scenic waterbus ride (one-way ticket included!), absorbing the beauty of Venice's waterways.
3. Basilica di San Marco
The place to be, St. Mark’s Square, lies at the heart of Venice. Discover the splendor of St. Mark’s Basilica's façade, delve into the network of alleys, and explore the city's iconic bridges.
4. Ponte dei Sospiri
A symbol of romance and history, the Bridge of Sighs connects the Doge’s Palace to the prisons. It's said that prisoners would sigh at their last glimpse of beautiful Venice through the window before facing their imprisonment, hence the evocative name. Its white limestone architecture and enclosed bridge, featuring windows with stone bars, have made it a must-visit landmark and a favorite backdrop for couples.
5. Canal Grande
Venice's labyrinthine canals are the arteries of the city, bustling with gondolas and vaporettos. These waterways have served as the primary means of transport for centuries, reflecting the city's unique architectural wonders. Spanning these canals are over 400 bridges, each with its own history and design, allowing pedestrians to wander the city's winding pathways, immerse themselves in its charm, and savor its timeless beauty.
6. Cannaregio
Before heading back to the train station, rendezvous with your tour leader to savor a traditional Venetian aperitivo or 'cicchetto.' Refresh and reminisce about your Venetian adventure.
7. Stazione di Venezia Santa Lucia

8. Stazione Roma Termini
Your final stop, marking the culmination of your Venetian adventure. From here, the eternal city of Rome spreads out, ready for your next exploration.

Good experience and first with this company. Got to Venice at Noon. Lost guide at Rialto Bridge. Caught up at 2pm to eat.. food place was not great at all… we went rogue after as we didn’t like the fast pace and not having time to take in sites. After going rogue we went on gondola ride, shopping and even sat down for coffee. We then met group at end of day for Happy Hour. Happy Hour place the spritz was wonderful and so was the appetizer. The train ride 4 hours to Venice and 4 hour’s back can be harsh. Too little time to squeeze things in.

Loved this trip. Venice is truly breathtaking and our guide Autonella was very knowledgeable and personable. She connected with nearly every group member and gave a very detailed history on the city and all it has to offer. She was the best. The food we had was some of the very best that Italy has to offer. Highly recommend this tour.

Like a lot of others have said in the reviews, I could’ve done the same trip myself for a lot less. It was a little confusing getting everybody together to get on the train, and then I was the only one that had a seat in a different car. To me this defeats the purpose of traveling in a group. on the way back I was with the rest of the tour group. I personally found both the train stations in Rome and Venice very easy to navigate so you are slightly familiar with train travel in Europe, you may want to do this yourself and save the money . The train ride was long but comfortable, and it was nice to have the tour guide to give us an overview of what to expect in Venice. Venice was extremely crowded on the main streets and squares . Our tour guide did recommend where to catch a gondola that would give us a little bit nicer tour and keep us out of the main canal. While it seemed like the amount of time we had in Venice would be enough, it took considerably longer to walk around simply because of the crowds.

I completely enjoyed the day trip to Venice. It’s a wonderful place. You can experience it in one day. The tour guide was okay. The meeting place instructions were not good. The tour is over priced for what you get. The guide lead us around the winding streets of Venice not really providing much information and wasting precious time. I would suggest catching the train to Venice on your own and and explore the city with your partner.

Should visit Venice once in life but not my favorite place in Rome. Our tour guide was was nice Jacob. Without him we never would have managed the train system. It is overwhelming.

My tour to Venice from Rome was simply, overwhelmingly wonderful. I had the absolute best guide, Antonella, was PHENOMENAL; she is very knowledgeable and made the tour so enjoyable. This trip was everything. I truly enjoyed her expertise and Venice was super amazing! I was able to cross a gondola ride off of my 🪣 list with this trip. I'm feeling beyond blessed! 🙏🏽
