Your High-Speed Train Adventure Begins

Meet your tour leader at Rome’s Termini train station and embark on a comfortable journey to Venice aboard a high-speed train. Traveling at speeds of up to 300 km/h (186 mph), you’ll reach your destination in just a few hours, allowing you to maximize your time in this enchanting city.

Exploring Venice’s Iconic Landmarks

Upon arrival, receive a one-way pass for Venice’s waterbus transportation system. Board a Vaporetto (waterbus) with your guide and marvel at the city’s captivating landscape as you glide along its iconic canals. Your first stop is St. Mark’s Square, the heart of Venice, where you’ll be captivated by the stunning architecture of St. Mark’s Basilica.

Free Time to Discover the Magic of Venice

After visiting St. Mark’s Square, enjoy some free time to explore the city at your own pace. Wander through the labyrinth of narrow streets and romantic alleys, indulge in a leisurely gondola ride, or treat yourself to an authentic Italian coffee in a picturesque piazza.

Crossing the Bridge of Sighs

Rejoin your tour leader to cross the famous Bridge of Sighs (Ponte dei Sospiri), one of Venice’s most cherished and photogenic landmarks. The bridge connects the Doge’s Palace to the former prison, offering a unique perspective on the city’s history.

Before heading back to the train station, indulge in a quintessential Venetian experience: the aperitivo. Join your tour leader at a local bàcari, where you’ll sample an array of savory cicchetti (small side dishes) accompanied by a refreshing Venetian Spritz.
