What did the city on a lagoon look like 600 years ago? You’re about to find out! Travel back in time with canals, delicious food and walkability…there’s so much more than romance in The Floating City. But go ahead and finish that last chapter in the romance novel you’re reading while your plane taxis to the gate. We won’t tell anyone!
There are vaporetti (water buses), water taxis and gondolas galore, but not a lot of vehicles until you get to the outskirts. The good news is A) water taxis and gondola rides are awesome, and B), the city is super-walkable. The Rialtine Islands make up the main part of the city, and it’s just an hour’s walk from one end of them to the other. So pack comfortable shoes and a backpack for flights to Venice.
If your flight lands in the morning, head to St. Mark’s Square, where you can spend the rest of the day visiting some of the city’s best museums, including Doge’s Palace and the Correr Museum. When Wotif’s Venice flights land in the afternoon, why not pig out on some of that famous Italian food like polenta or risotto with a cuttlefish ink sauce? Yes, we know why you’re really here. The best eats can be found away from touristy areas, so keep your eyes peeled! If you land at night, there’s nothing like watching the city lights reflected in the canals, so take the long way around to your accommodation in Venice.
Have you ever run a marathon? How about on water? In the Voga Longa, you don’t have to be Jesus—you just have to bring or rent your own human-powered vessel! All Venice packages should include at least a gondola ride, though, which you might enjoy more than the Voga Longa if your legs need a break from all that walking.
The magic of Venice is priceless, but that doesn’t mean it has to cost you an arm and a leg. When you book cheap flights to Venice right here on Wotif, you can score all the fun without putting a dent in your savings. Plan your dream getaway to Venice today!
