Advice from my Italian father: Get ready to see a lot of laundry and bring your own toilet paper. My advice? Do not miss the elevator ride to the top of the bell tower at St. Giorgio Maggiore. Enjoy the most unique city in the world - before it's gone or too expensive for the likes of you.
Treviso is a great spot near Venice with airport as well. You can find a great apartment like "palazzina trevigiana" or "chiarano home" near the train station and then go by to Venice easily because are only 25 minute of train. Treviso is a super cool city as well, so I think is the best way to visit 2 great city in one trip 🎉
Just back from Venice and I can endorse all this excellent advice. There were no wretched cruise ships but plenty of people. It is still possible to wander off and avoid the crowds in the back streets - you may get lost but it's fun. And we just took the ordinary water taxi to Burano - all included in a three day water bus pass, ate well, drifted around, paid a visit to Murano late in the day, and enjoyed the ride back.
That's great, we are happy that you had a good time! What did you enjoy the most in Venice? 😍
How long was the boat ride to Murano and were there boats coming and going quite often? I won’t have very much time but would love to get over there even for a few minutes!!
@@sallyamiller4337 the ferry would take around 20 mins, however if you have the chance I would suggest you to go to Burano (around 45 min instead).
@@ItalybyItalians oh really? Why would you choose that island instead? Would love to hear!
@@sallym2066 it's the most peculiar island with all the little coloured houses. Also it's bigger so you have more streets and places to explore 😊
We will be spending 3 nights in Venice before heading south to Ravenna for a cruise. Thank you for these great tips.
Thank you for the video! Wonderful advice. I'm on my way soon... I will be traveling to Milan in June by myself to celebrate my 50th birthday 🎉 i plan to visit Venice, Florence, and Lake Como.
Great plan!

Outstanding
Thanks 🤗 are you planning on visiting Italy this year?
@@ItalybyItalians I might have tours this season. I ' m a tour guide who does overland bus tours in America and Canada for Europeans. How about you ? Are you a tour guide in the business?
@@donjarrett1068 that's fantastic, no we are not a tour operating business, however we take some tours when we travel and recommend the best ones ✌️
You would make an excellent tour manager leader either Italians or European Union English speakers to the USA
@@donjarrett1068 thanks! 🥰
Se scaricassi il tuo video tredici cose da sapere prima di andare a Venezia. Grazie per questi preziosi consigli.A Venezia visiterò il Palazzo Surian Bellotto dimora del cardinale Bernis nel 1758.
Cool, enjoy Venice and let us know after your trip how you liked it 😊
I want to visit vanis this time
Sadly due to the ongoing pandemic I don’t think that I will be able to make a trip in 2021. But looking for maybe in 2022. Most likely in la primavera.
One thing I would love to know about is places to hear concerts. What could be better than listening to Vivaldi than in Venice! Or maybe a video on some parks and green spaces in Venice.
hey James, we hear you, really! ❤️ Hopefully we can soon leave this pandemic behind us 🍀
You are right, a concert in Venice is definitely a unique experience! Here below our suggestions for you:
1. La Fenice Theatre: checkout the program of this amazing theatre in Venice, or take a tour of it (link-> bit.ly/3wDTUcj), it's worth it!
2. Musica a Palazzo: fantastic Opera performance in a historical palace (link -> bit.ly/3ftroEI)
3. Interpreti Veneziani: concerts in a old church in Venice (link -> bit.ly/3fRD42X)
We hope these are useful and that you're able to travel SOOON to Venice 🇮🇹 Let us know if you have more questions!
if you want to see green San Erasmo island (the so called crop garden of venice) or Santa Elena (biggest park in Venice) are good options. there is not so much green and parks there. next to saint marks place there is a beautiful little park to. if you stand with facing the lagoon, walk right.

Venice is the city of art beauty and the civillizattion ! Also , venice was a strong and a glorious duchy in Italie
And the city of love too ❤
Yes, everybody identifies Venice as the city of love, but it's actually so many things! For example, it's the longest republic ever existed 😃✌️
@@ItalybyItalians nice to hear that !
I am visiting venice to take part in a painting program for two months starting two weeks from now! Thank you for your videos they are so helpful to learn how to best respect and engage with this sacred land! Do you have any extra tips?
Hey Angie, that's fantastic, we hope you'll have a great time in Venice 🥰 if you haven't done it yet, we suggest you to watch our video about Venice hidden gems ua-cam.com/video/9m0HaWAa35o/v-deo.html
Hi Angie... please tell me about this 2 month painting program! We did som e Urban Sketching while there in May but TWO MONTHS sounds like my idea of a bucketlister! Do share! ;)
Great tips, I can also recommend a quick visit to Lido, is a beatifull place and with a very different vibe that the other islands, with its own personality.
I agree, thank you for your suggestion!
Hi! Love the video - just another thing, how would we get from the airport to Venice as we land at 11pm? And the best way to get to where our hotel will be that night?
hey Gareth, thanks! You have a couple of options:
1. Water taxi: it would bring you directly from Marco Polo airport to your hotel in Venice (book in advance) --> here: rb.gy/ivqaap
2. Bus to Venice and then you'd need to take a water taxi or walk to your hotel --> rb.gy/xrmxgb
Let us know your experience there 🥰
Nice videos. With the train from the main land to Venice, what time do the services start and end for the day?
Trains depart from 5 am until midnight so they cover pretty much the entire day!
@@ItalybyItalians Grazie!
your vlog was amazing, we are going next September ., Where do you recommend we stay to absorb all Venice has to offer ,. we will be staying for 3 days in this region
Hey Steven, thanks! Our suggestion is to stay in Venice, not in Mestre, so you'll be able to get the most out of your stay ✌️😃 let us know your experience!
I am going to Rome, florence and Venice Jan 1-19 any advice is appreciated...
Great video . Is early September a good time to visit Venice ? I guess if you only have 3 or 4 days it’s better to stay in the city . Any recommendations for good quality medium priced hotels ? Thanks .
Hi! Yes, September is quite a good time. Even for 3-4 days also Mestre can be a valid option if you want a cheaper hotel as it is quite easy to reach the lagoon everyday by train.
We do not suggest nor sponsor any hotel or restaurant sorry!
I’ve been to Venice in June, September and October. September was the best weather of the 3 visits. We always stayed off the Island. It is only about 30 minutes to get there. We took a bus from outside our AirbnB.
Can you advice on where to stay. And where to eat that is not touristy
Hello 👋 we don't give suggestions on hotels however here you can find our tips on non-touristy things to do ua-cam.com/video/9m0HaWAa35o/v-deo.html
Hi Giulia, thank you so much for your videos they are so helpful!
I was just wondering do you know how late the trains run until in Venice? My family and I will be doing a day trip here during our stay in Florence. Aside from wandering around and enjoying Venice, we'd also love to visit Burano and maybe Murano as well. I booked a 5 hour tour to visit both places, but now I'm worried we might be too rushed around to enjoy it so was debating on doing it ourselves.
• Do you know how long it would take to get to each of those places by boat?
• Is it possible to take a boat ride from Murano to Burano or do you have to go back to Venice first ?
• Where would we have to get on the boat in Venice to go to Murano or Burano?
Sorry for all the questions, thanks for your time !
Hey Tina, you can check the trains schedule on Trenitalia.it to plan your trip.
In 1 day you won't have much time to visit Venice, I personally would not suggest doing the Islands tour because they would take up a long time. However if you want to go, maybe you could try to go with public transport and only visit Murano and Burano, however you won't be able to do so in less than 4 hours.
Your video was very informative. Thank you
I am curious about transport from Venice to Merte. Is there trains/buses during night time ? Thank you
Hello! The best option would be by train, you can check the overall schedule on www.trenitalia.com 🚆
If you had 24 hours in Venice, I know I know, too short. But what would you do? I want to see the main sights of course, but definitely want to see some of the more hidden gems. Any advice on what to pack in on a 24 hours stay in Venice? FYI, my hotel is in the city center in order to maximize my time. Would love any advice, tips and suggestions!
That's an almost impossible mission! Definitely book a guided tour or ticket to Doge's Palace and st. Mark Basilica in order to skip the lines, then I would stroll outside St. Mark's area and then have aperitivo somewhere in Campo Santa Margherita or Cannaregio area ✌️
@@ItalybyItalians Thanks! I figure 24 hours in Venice is better than 0 hours in Venice! 🥰 I will do as much as I can do!
👍🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
I am spending 4 days in Venice, probably going to Murano and/or Burano too. Which transportation should I buy?
Also, where can I buy the tickets in advance for the monuments? Grazie!!!
Hi Moni, here you can buy the day trip to Murano and / or Burano and the attractions tickets in advance: rb.gy/oztc6d
For the public transport tickets you can check out this link: rb.gy/g3yfcq
Let us know your experience in Venice!
We will be visiting Venice in Dec. Do we need to prepare any special shoes for the high tides?
Hi! Well winter shoes are ofc preferable but in the main sites of the city they put boardwalks so you should be fine 😉
Can we visit Venice in August ? And how the temperature there ? Thank you 🙏🏽
Of course you can but I wouldn't advise it as it's really really hot and there are also many tourists around. The temperature would be around 32° and it's a humid weather so you really feel hot all over your body.
@@ItalybyItalians thanks for your reply 🌸
How do we commute in Venice between the hotel and sightseeing locations etc…..
Walk
Hi
I have booked a ticket to Venice in mid of September.
I am confused about buying a ACTV Vaporetto pass.
Is the pass works for every boat?
Can I go to Murano and Burano Island using ACTV PASS?
Thanks
Hi Mohd, yes ACTV is the public transport company in Venice: if you buy a Pass it will work for all the Vaporetti ACTV (they account for the largest fleet) and you can also reach Venice islands. In the video description you can find the link to purchase the Pass 😊
@@ItalybyItalians Thank you very much..
Much appreciated 😀
Da veneziana mi piacerebbe vedere citati anche altri luoghi oltre a San Marco e Rialto. Perché non citare il museo Correr, le Gallerie dell'Accademia, il museo Fortuny, Ca'Rezzonico, il museo Guggenheim, la casa di Goldoni e mi fermo qui, ma c'è molto altro.
Ciao Rosangela, hai ragione, purtroppo però molte persone visitano Venezia in pochi giorni e non hanno tempo per visitare molto. In ogni caso abbiamo provato a dare visibilità ad alcune cose meno note di Venezia in questo video: rb.gy/nt8rxn
Facci sapere che ne pensi!
hello. im thinking to visit Venice. i’ll arrive there by bus and bus station’s name is Viale Staizone. and I’m planning to stay in Anda Venice Hostel, or Generator Venice Hostel. first day i want to see city center and next day i am planning to see Burano Island. But i dont know which hostel is more comfortable and close for my plan. Can you help me with this, please? Also, when I want to go Burano Island, is there a certain hour for the transport? or i can go and come back whenever I want?? I’m asking this because I have to catch my flight 😅 thank you
hey, thanks for your message! If you don't have much time, I'd suggest you to stay in Venice city center, and not in Mestre. There are many tours departing for Venice Islands, you can find them here: shorturl.at/sBZ13
Please note that many of them include also Murano and Torcello: be mindful of their duration and of the time you'll need to go back to the airport. If you are flying from Marco Polo Airport, consider as well a boat transfer to the airport: shorturl.at/lFPQ7
Let us know how it goes!
Can yo rent scooters in venice
Hi what is the best month of the year to be there ❤
Hello, in the video we suggest March to April or October, to avoid the cruises and the hot weather 😉 are you planning to go this year?
@@ItalybyItalians haha by December yes I have to get travel Visa for Italy .. tell me a week is sufficient to visit main places there?
Ciao, I hope this email finds you well. I work for a NFP Italian Club in Melbourne Australia called The Veneto Club. We have our anniversary dinner coming up and have recent restored our Gondola. We will be presenting it to our members on the night and would love to show you video. Can I please have permission to use it?
Guido
Hello Guido, that's great!
If you want to reproduce it from UA-cam yes, sure, it'd be an honour, thank you for asking!
Have a great party 😉
@@ItalybyItalians thanks you very much. Total legend
😂😂.. biscuits and tea / coffee..how much? 😊
7.50 Euros is expensive for you guys? I guess if you do it too often it adds up, but I read that you can take a ferry for just 2 Euros. Speaking if which, I'm now reading that you need to make a "reservation" to visit. Is this true?
Great story on the Bridge of Sighs
Hey Brian, yes from January it may be necessary to pay to access Venice, and the price will vary depending on how much people are already inside it, we'll update you as soon as it's official! 🤗
🇲🇦🇲🇦🌷🌷❤❤
So we are not going to mention Peggy Guggenheim.
Hi mam
Your content is so good but the volume on your music is WAY too loud & it drowns you out.
Inapropriate music

Perché? È una battuta?

Why? Is it a joke?
