Kae ? ? ? ??? ?? ? ?June 25, 2012Venice is renowned for the beauty of its setting, its architecture and its artworks. The city in its entirety is listed as World Heritage Site, along with its lagoon.
Amit GaharwarMay 27, 2017Take a public water boat. Sit in the open area (if not available, wait for the place, take day tickets so you don't need to get down). Sit, relax, soak in and enjoy Venice's essence.
Oliver SearsJuly 2, 2013If in Venice for romance, think about taking a gondola ride around some of this fascinating network of canals. If not, take the public transport to get around - less costly but still the same beauty!
- Crescentrating Halal Friendly TravelApril 23, 2013Most of these buildings date from the 13th to the 18th centuries and pose a Venetian-Gothic style. The best way to see these beautiful buildings is to travel by the vaporetto, the water bus. Read more
Ru GalievOctober 25, 2018Unlimited pass for 1-3 days on vaporetos is the best investment during the stay here. Also it allows you to swim over to the other neighboring islands
VegebundoMay 2, 2018To do: take the No.1 vaporetto ACTV linea 1 from Piazzale Roma to Piazza San Marco. To avoid crowd: Go in the late afternoon, as at this time of day, most people travel in the other direction.
Aleksandr TretyakAugust 15, 2018Boats work 24H. You can ride in the evening and in the night. It’s very special atmosphere here) Make sure to take warm clothes.
Andrew RobertsonMay 3, 2018Beautiful and picturesque. Some new and amazing round every corner. Great place to chill and people watch. Friendly staff great food.
- Crescentrating Halal Friendly TravelSeptember 19, 2011Locally called as Canalazzo. The best way to see the beautiful buildings along the canal is to travel by the vaporetto, the water bus. There are a few halal kebab and takeaway outlets. Read more
Yuri van GeestApril 9, 2018Just relax and enjoy the stunning architecture. Sit outside to feel the energy.Upvoted Feb 17
... 😁Abdullah...July 26, 2016Take the gondola ride in the canal . It is a must. Expensive: yes, cost 80€ before 7pm and 100 € after 7pm
DHR.comSeptember 29, 2011A Venice trip won’t ever be complete without going to the Grand Canal where you can ride water taxis. Have the best time riding vaporettos and gondolas (you can bargain w/ rates). Best during sunset.
MegOctober 17, 2018The main tourist spot for Venice, with Rialto bridge and waterside restaurants. Be careful because you’ll be charged extra in these parts ;)
Amal MusadJune 10, 2015I like it so much❤️, but when I went there it was summer, so it was too hot , it was a horrible..So when it summer and you want to go there, I recommend to not go, I hope I visit it one time in winter- amanda longdenApril 21, 2014A bit too commercial nowadays,also very dirty and graffiti everywhere,very expensive especially when the cruise shops are in.no more haggling gondola prices it's €80 fixed rate per boat!!!!
Lizzie PAugust 10, 2012No trip to Venice would be complete without a Gondola ride on the Grand Canal. Be sure to haggle the price!
Tom BrdMarch 26, 2019Wonderful to take the water bus line 1 and go along all the canal with all the beautiful houses, churches and palaces.
Chantel SnyderJune 17, 2013The best way to enjoy is take a personal boat this way you don't have to be on a larger one with wall to wall people. They all looked like sardines. :)
Stephen CrockerMarch 27, 2015A great way to get around. Note that it can be a bit choppy when you get close to the ends but it's normally pretty smooth.
EceMarch 8, 2016If it's windy, that much boat trip and sea may make you feel a little bit sick 😅 but great view though, the houses are really really in the sea!
A FaraJuly 27, 2017Love this city, the small and grand canals and the whole wandering around by gondola and vaporetto!
SilverseaDecember 5, 2011Countess Lelia Passi offers cooking classes in her beautiful kitchen at Palazzo Tiepolo. Built in the 16th century, it's located on the Grand Canal between the Rialto Bridge & San Marco Square.- drew tarvinMarch 16, 2015The best way to see it is via the water bus. Unless you can walk on water, then just do that, Jesus.
Asma ♡January 28, 2017No words can explain how beautiful is it !!! See the pictures !! In fact you need to come see it and feel it ❤️❤️❤️
Door2TourMay 9, 2014For a trip along the full stretch of the Grand Canal, hop aboard the No. 1 or No. 2 Vaporetto. Beautiful.
- Door2TourMay 9, 2014Catch the No. 1 or No. 2 Vaporetto to get a trip along the full stretch of Venice's Grand Canal. Beautiful.
Güneş BayırSeptember 4, 2017it's very nice, take a vaporetto tour of it but this is not the only beauty of venice, visit other less populated areas.
Worth getting the river bus at night for a magical journey
- SaraJanuary 4, 2023Gondola rides come out here if you want a closer look. Much better than a water taxi, however it’s 80€ cash.
Julia KryvomazAugust 14, 2017Great place to visit. And the water transport is great option to look around the city
RoutineFebruary 16, 2015You can have a beautiful trip on the full length of the canal on a vaporetto.
Otel.comFebruary 12, 2014There are over 170 buildings on the Grand Canal including restaurants, hotels and entertainment venues.
