Day Trips & Excursions in Venice

Venice is a city known worldwide for its rich historical, cultural and artistic heritage. What many tourists ignore, however, is that even its surrounding area offers many things to do and lots of interesting places to discover. With our day-trips you can go and come back within a few hours, without having to worry about public transport and organization of the tour.
 
A few kilometers from the centre of Venice are indeed beautiful places not to be missed: the Dolomites, a mountain range universally-known for its magnificent beauty, its pristine valleys and the lakes out of time: the ideal place for an unforgettable tour! And always staying in the theme of "nature", do not miss an excursion of Valpolicella, a charming hilly area a few kilometers from Venice, where not only you will have the opportunity to admire the breathtaking landscape, but you can also taste the famous local wines.
 
But with our day trips, you can also reach some amazing cities of north Italy, such as Bologna and Padua, famous throughout the world for their artistic and cultural heritage.
 
If you do not want to limit yourself to visit Venice and you would like to make your vacation even more complete, take a look at our day trips and discover the charm of the many attractions just a few miles from the city

Worth every penny!

We did not have much time but wanted to cover a lot of area. Adriana was our guide for the entire weekend and she was incredibly knowledgeable and went at the pace we set. Booking a private tour aloud us to choose specific times that suited us and we weren't lost in a group of people. Adriana was considerate to the three generations present in our group and answered all of our questions and gave plenty of options on where to go to eat and visit after our time with her had ended. Our experience with Adriana has prompted us to seek future travel specifically to Venice and we will be sure to request Adrianna.

Fun Boat Trip, Great way to see Venice's Neighboring Islands

My mom and I had a great time on the boat trip. It was a very relaxing ride between the islands. We stopped at the glass factory in Murano which was amazing to watch. On Burano we skipped the lace factory tour and instead wandered around checking out the different colored fisherman's houses and cute shops. Torcello was neat to see the oldest civilization in the estuary. We grabbed a Coke Light and Bag of Bruschetti all'olio di oliva al gusto pomodoro e basilico and propped our feet up on the side rail for the ride home...enjoying our snack with a beautiful sunset over Venice. Highly recommended. Just long enough to get a good flavor of the area, without being excessively long. The guide did a great job, narrating in 6 different languages.
