Activities to Do in Venice During the Day
Here are the must-see places in Venice for a day trip:
The Grand Canal, which is 3 km long and 30 to 60 meters wide, featuring the iconic Rialto Bridge in its center and stunning palaces along its banks.
St. Mark’s Square, home to the Gothic-style St. Mark’s Basilica, and the Doge’s Palace, the former residence of the government of the Venetian Republic.
A guided walking tour, possibly with a specific theme to explore a unique aspect of the city, such as workshops of artisans practicing traditional crafts like locksmithing, foundry work, or mosaic creation.
The Venice Ghetto, the oldest in Europe, where you can take an outdoor tour and discover its synagogues and rich culture.
A Multi-Day Trip to Venice with school
Explore Venice’s islands, including Torcello, Murano, and Burano, each with its own unique charm. Torcello is home to the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, known for its impressive mosaics. Murano is world-famous for its glass blowing tradition—be sure to visit a glass factory to watch the artisans at work. Burano is renowned for its brightly colored houses and lace-making heritage; take some time to wander its picturesque streets and perhaps pick up a lace souvenir.
You can also visit lesser-known islands like Lazzaretto Nuovo and San Francesco del Deserto, which are rich in history. Lazzaretto Nuovo was once a quarantine island and offers a fascinating glimpse into Venice’s past with its ancient graffiti and archaeological findings. San Francesco del Deserto is a tranquil island with a Franciscan monastery, providing a serene escape from the bustle of the city.
Discover the Naval Museum at the Arsenal for an immersion into Venice’s maritime tradition. This museum offers a comprehensive look at the city’s storied naval history, showcasing everything from ancient ships to modern naval artifacts.
Go cycling on the Lido and Pellestrina. It’s a great way to combine physical activity with exploring the Art Nouveau style and history of these islands. On the Lido, you’ll find wide boulevards and beautiful beaches, while Pellestrina offers a more traditional and rustic vibe with its quaint fishing villages and stunning views of the Adriatic Sea.
School Trips to Venice: Where to Stay?
Venice attracts numerous tourists and is known to be expensive, including accommodation costs. To determine where to stay, consider your budget and the trip itinerary.
Accommodation costs vary depending on whether you choose to stay in the historic center or on the mainland, such as in Mestre. In the historic center, we’ve selected hostels or hotels in neighborhoods like Cannaregio, Giudecca, or some nearby islands.
If you want to save money, consider staying in Mestre or in other mainland localities like the Riviera del Brenta.
Finally, consider your transportation options for the trip. For instance, think about whether you’re arriving by train or if you’ve rented a bus for getting around during your stay.
