Florence in a Day: Hidden Gems & Top Attractions
Trastevere, Rome in a Day: Hidden Gems & Top Attractions
Hey guys, Sean here from The Roman Guy.
We’re here in Roma Termini station, it’s 6:05 AM and we have the 6:15 AM train for a Rome to Venice day trip.
We generally suggest you spend at least one night in Venice, but not every vacation has time for that. We understand so we’re going to show you how to see Venice in a day.
Venice is made up from 118 island and is home to over a quarter million people. The historical center itself and what we call the main island, is home to just around 55,000 residents.
With an average of over 30 million visitors per year, it’s a great idea to plan your day well.
Venice is about 15 times smaller than Rome, and all the top things to do are within walking distance from one another.
Venice is in the Veneto region of Italy, on the Adriatic Sea. By train it’s about 3.5 hours from Rome, 2 hours from Florence and 2.5 hours from Milan. Don’t get off at Venice Mestre, Venice S. Lucia is your stop!
From Venice Santa Lucia train station you can either take an expensive water taxi which is really cool, or the vaporetto which is like a boat version of a bus. You can take number 2 which will take you straight to St Mark's Square.
You can buy your tickets right outside the train station, and a single journey will cost you 7.50 euros as of 2018. Remember to validate the ticket before you get on board. The ticket is good for 75 minutes after you validate it and you can hop on and hop off as you go. The trip to St Mark's Square takes about 30 minutes.
St Mark’s Square is one of the most important and most recognizable squares in all of Italy. If you’re planning on going inside St Mark’s Basilica, you can either buy tickets online or book a guided tour to skip the line. Don’t show up without a ticket, or you’ll spend your day in Venice waiting in line.
Remember that entering St Mark’s Basilica, you’ll be entering a holy place, so make sure you have your shoulders and knees covered.
On the right hand side of St Mark's Basilica, you’ll find the Doge’s Palace. The special itinerary tour takes you to the once famous cell of Casanova and you also get to go across the Bridge of Sighs which is super cool!
You can visit the Doge’s Palace every day from 8:30am to 7pm April through October or until 5:30pm November to March.
This clock has been keeping time in Venice for over 500 years and built in the late 15th century.
Venetian legends hold that when the clock was revealed, it was so beautiful that the Doge had the clockmaker blinded so he could never create anything to rival it.
If you’re a lover of great views, definitely check out the Campanile or Bell Tower, open only April through to October.
Most people just think it’s the Libreria Acqua Alta is just a quirky store with gondolas inside but there’s actually a method to the madness. The name translates to the Library of High Water, most books are protected in bathtubs or even a gondola. This is because the canals flood and it’s the best way to keep the books protected.
Now we’ll head for a casual lunch at Osteria al Portego. In Venetian bars they sell something called Cicchetti, different mixed foods; fish, meat, all kind of fried items…
The Rialto Bridge is one of the most recognized attractions in Europe, let alone Venice. It was actually first built as a pontoon bridge in the 12th century. Later they rebuilt it out of wood but it burnt down a few times and collapsed on even more occasions. Finally they completed what you see today in 1591.
Nino & Friends is a cool little shop that we happened to stumble upon, they had the best cookie I’ve ever eaten in my life.
This city is a fishing village, so definitely walk through the fish market, which is a great picture of the local culture.
The Jewish Ghetto in Venice is the oldest Jewish ghetto in the world. It was created here in 1516.
In the Jewish Ghetto neighborhood you can find many cicchetteria and restaurants such as Mezzopieno, Bacaro dai Morosi and Birreria Zanon.
At this point, check your watch, see what time it is and start making your way back to the train station.
Venice Italy - Tour the Hidden Parts of Veneza Italia
Tour Some of the Hidden Parts of Venice Italy on our Venice Tour of Italy. Our Veneza Italia tour travel guide features some hidden parts of the city of Venezia, Italia as well of some of the mainstream Venice attractions. Venice highlights include the gardens of the Biennale Exhibition of Modern Arts, Palladio’s Church of San Pietro in Castello, the Naval Museum with a model of the Bucintoro (Doge’s Boat) and the Pavilion of Gondolas housing Peggy Guggenheim’s own vessel.
Venice Guide
The Veneto, the mainland province around Venice, takes its name from the Veneti, the pre-Roman inhabitants of the region. The region bore the brunt of fierce and destructive barbarian attacks that began in the 4th century. Fleeing the Goths, the people of the Veneto sought refuge among the wild and uninhabited islands of their marshy coast.
Building on a patchwork of more than 100 low-lying islands in the middle of a swampy lagoon they formed villages and the city of Venice rose in 421 AD. By the 13th century Venice ruled Byzantium. At its height, Venice was one of the greatest military and commercial powers on earth. In population it was four times the size of Rome and London combined. In 1508 the Pope, the kings of France and Spain and the Holy Roman Emperor joined forces to stop the advances of this powerful empire.
Venice Tour Video
Although her expansion was halted, the city of Venice continued to dominate the eastern Mediterranean for another 200 years. In 1846 Venice lost its isolation when a causeway joined the city to the mainland and the Italian rail network. The region's architecture, paintings and way of life reflect the splendor of Venice and the impact she had on the world. In addition to being home to magnificent art and architecture, Venice and the Veneto are laced with an exceptional network of navigable canals and waterways. In the lagoons and canals of Venice, one sails past colourful waterfront houses, under Renaissance bridges and close to magnificent historic sites such as St. Mark's Cathedral.
Known to Venetians as Canalazzo, the Grand Canal weaves its way through Venice's six districts or sestieri following the course of an ancient river bed. The two-mile-long Grand Canal serves as the city's main thoroughfare. Its average depth is 9 feet and the width varies from 120 to 228 feet. On its borders are some of the finest palaces of the Republic
Our Cruise in Venice, Italy
When it comes to river cruises, Italy is a country seemingly designed to host them. Its beautiful canals and rivers pass through diverse landscapes and nature en route, from picturesque lagoon islands with their colourful houses, to wild beach dunes and pine woods with an abundance of birdlife.
These waterways were once the ancient trade routes used by the Romans and the early Mediterranean settlers before them, and cruises around Italy are perfect for gaining a real insight into the many cultures - including Roman, Etruscan, Istrian, Byzantine and of course Renaissance - which have influenced the arts, architecture and history of the region over many centuries.
Throughout the season the 20 passenger La Bella Vita provides Italian river cruises that encompass the romance and architecture of Venice as well as the captivating lakeside setting of the Renaissance city of Mantua. Venice is, of course, the crowning jewel of most Italian river cruises, but Mantua, in central northern Italy, has also been (and still is) a hub of art, culture and music for centuries. The route inland takes you along the River Po and the Bianco Canal through the Po Valley.
Delicious seafood, local culinary specialities, fine wines and attentive service complete the experience of this fairytale adventure, and explain the appeal of our boutique Italian river cruises. Luxuriating in a friendly and relaxing boat environment, travellers have an opportunity for a unique perspective on some magnificent Italian cities.
La Bella Vita is a stylish twenty-passenger vessel offering comfortable, fully air-conditioned accommodation. She has two upper deck junior suites and eight lower deck staterooms, all offering en suite facilities, and a bright, spacious dining room and bar area where delicious Italian specialities will be served. Louvre doors open to the side to give a perfect view. Above, there is a huge sun deck with comfortable loungers to relax on with a drink and a good book, or just watch the world go by.
What is hotel barging?
Despite the growing popularity of cruising, especially on large river vessels, hotel barging is still a little known niche concept. Most hotel barges started life as cargo vessels but have since been painstakingly converted to offer luxury boutique accommodation for small groups of up to 20 passengers.
Guests enjoy an intimate atmosphere, high levels of personal service and immersion into the culture, history and gastronomy of regions.

RAD RACE Tour de Friends Munich - Venice
A film by Hendrik Thul, Etienne Heinrich and Benny Zurek. With additional footage from Francis Cade.
The official aftermovie of the RAD RACE Tour de Friends 2017.
A team stage ride with 400 riders from Munich to Venice. Road bike, fixed gear or cross bike – your choice. 600 km divided into 4 stages. Block party every evening for all riders on the piazzas along the trip with local treats. Included were equipment transport, accommodation, and busses back to Germany. All you need to arrange is how to get your bike and bags to Munich. A mix between a stage ride, group ride and LONG DISTANCE alley cat.
Since this was a team stage ride you have to ride together to find your way along the cycle path #MUCVCE to the stage destination. To participate in the clocking you need to have at least three people in your crew. The more people the better – but only the third time in each crew counts.
There is already a waiting list for the 2018 edition here: rad-race.com/rad-race-tour-de-friends/

Walking Tour & Food of VENICE - A Classical Masterpiece in ITALY
About Venice | Italy : Venice, the capital of northern Italy’s Veneto region, is built on more than 100 small islands in a lagoon in the Adriatic Sea. It has no roads, just canals – including the Grand Canal thoroughfare – lined with Renaissance and Gothic palaces. The central square, #PiazzaSanMarco, contains St. Mark’s Basilica, which is tiled with Byzantine mosaics, and the Campanile bell tower offering views of the city’s red roofs.
Venice has always been a place which I dreamt of visiting. Atlast the dream came true when I visited this time in Italy. All you heard about Venice was always true, the Romance and the feel was truly around. I was around the place for 2 days, but it was worth it. Its a place where there is no cars or any public transport except the Running Boats from the main Railways station and stopping in-between and of course there was the #gandolas which was a epitome of beauty in the beautiful city of #Venice.
Unfortunately post my visit the same place had been affected by floods which had impacted the tourism industry very badly and the clipping which was available in all News Channels and Youtube was indeed very horrifying to see thus beautiful city getting submerged into water. I deeply feel bad for the residents as well as those Tourist who had visited this time. I pray to go that the same become normal as soon as possible. This place is truly Devine and deserve to be seen and experienced by many.
Few pics just for your reference :

Venice: City of Dreams
Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide | After sorting through the monuments of Venice's powerful past, we'll trace its decline from Europe's most powerful city to its most hedonistic one. We'll cruise the Grand Canal, luxuriate in a venerable café, and savor fresh fish canal-side with Venetian friends. Becoming as anonymous as possible in this city of masks, we'll be dazzled by masterpieces of the Venetian Renaissance and get intimate with the city of Casanova...on a gondola in the moonlight.
