What you can expect

Fancy a day trip to Venice’s water canals, sunsets, and multi-colored buildings

Set off with us on this day trip from Rome and reach Europe’s most romantic city in just a few hours by high-speed train

Your tour leader will be with you all the way from Termini train station, escorting you to the platform and on board, explaining the highlights of Venice and handing you your one-run ticket for Venice’s waterbus transportation.

After reaching Venice in little more than 3 hours, you will enjoy your one-ride ticket for the Venetian typical public transport, the waterbus, or vaporetto. It will be a fantastic opportunity to get a first glimpse of this magical city and its breathtaking views.

Get to St. Mark’s Square, the heart and soul of Venice’s historical centre: from the waterfront, turn left and breathe in the magnificence of the western façade of St. Mark's Basilica.

Did you know that Venice is composed of 118 islands that dot its lagoon, but also more than 400 bridges that cross its canals

From St. Mark's Square, take the opportunity to go shopping or to sip a good Italian coffee in one of the historic venues in the center, to get lost in this insanely romantic alleys labyrinth.

You definitely cannot miss the Bridge of Sighs (Ponte dei Sospiri), among the city's most beloved locations and a source of highly popular Instagram shots

On the way back to the railway station, you will find your tour leader there, to have a fantastic aperitivo, or cicchetto, as the locals call it: a mix of small savory side dishes typically served in the so-called bàcari and accompanied by the famous Venetian Spritz.

What better way to relax and recharge your batteries before heading back towards the Eternal City

Incredibly amazing tour! I fell in love with Venice. Our tour guide Graziella was just amazing. She was knowledgeable, helpful, and really friendly. Graziella gave great recommendations on what to do and where to eat in our free time. She was very communicative, especially during our free time, so we knew our way. I would highly recommend this tour. It would be helpful to know that it's a long ride to get there to Venice but it was worth it.

I thoroughly enjoyed this day trip. It is a long journey and requires leaving very early, but it's worth it. I still had a good 6 hours to enjoy Venice on my own and see all the sites, experience all the thrills like the gondola ride (extra $) and terrific shopping and food. Our guide was very knowledgeable on the history of Venice and the buildings. She gave us a walking tour through the main street and showing us the lay of the land before we set out on our own. I think it was a tremendous addition to my trip to Italy using Rome as a home base. Definitely worth it!

Easy way to see Venice from Rome. The guide was helpful in locating the train and gave a tour of Venice when we arrived. He ensured that we all knew where to meet to be on time for the trains, explained the boat system and how to navigate Venice. The tour included a drink and small food item from a local bar that was a nice way to end the day.

Lunch was not good. Asked for salami and they were out but didn’t come ask for what wanted different. Just sent Mortadella which I don’t eat. No questions no waiter return. Too short. Should take the earlier train as not enough time to shop etc after guide walks down to square. Had an hour.
