What to do in Venice
To the question "What to do in Venice?" here at VivoVenetia we like to answer that Venice is more to experience than to simply visit. Certainly St. Mark's Square with St. Mark's Basilica and the Doge's Palace, the Grand Canal, the Bridge of Sighs and the Rialto Bridge are worth a visit, especially if this is your first time in the city. Our advice is to go a step further; the city has much more to offer, experiences to live, people to know and hidden corners to reach.
Discover the best things to do in Venice with our tourist guide for lovers of Venice. VivoVenetia offers a wide range of bespoke experiences, food tours and cultural activities.
Venice tours
We believe that it is the emotions and encounters that nourish a trip and, more generally, life! In addition to the many things to see, there are also many things to do and, most importantly, people to meet. To excite you and connect with our amphibious city, we have created several Venice tours and experiences to enjoy a direct contact with locals!
Venice islands and lagoon
The Venice lagoon is a precious archipelago of large and small islands with a thousand stories.
You can follow the classic tourist itineraries or choose to take lesser-known, wilder routes. We offer both organized boat tours and private boat rentals to discover the islands of Venice at your own pace: motorboat, sailboat, bragozzo. You can admire the splendid islands of Murano, Burano and Torcello, or opt for hidden islands, far from the crowds, that are well worth a visit.
Come and discover them with us!
