6 days in Venice Itinerary

Virtually unchanged for the last six centuries, Venice is actually a group of islands made famous by a series of canals, bridges, monuments, piazzas, and narrow pedestrian lanes.

Kids will enjoy Doge's Palace and Piazza San Marco. Explore Venice's surroundings by going to Chiesa di San Valentino (in Bussolengo), Padua (Palazzo delle Debite, Scrovegni Chapel, &more) and Verona (Piazza Bra, Arena di Verona, &more). There's still lots to do: contemplate the waterfront views at Canal Grande, take in the views from Ponte di Rialto, take in the architecture and atmosphere at Basilica di San Marco, and explore the world behind art at Museo Correr.
