it’s must have especially while in Venezia. Easy to Reedem for a printed pass by going to a big yellow machine and entering your code. It makes it easier to explore on your own without having to pay exuberant amount money on tours. I was able to explore the island of Bruano and murano on my own. And saw the the most gorgeous sunset while in the ferry.

Easy to use, app is simple and provides good info on train routes etc. A bit pricey at first, but you if you don’t have definite plans and prebooked train tickets months before, will recommend getting this to avoid variable prices.

Upon leaving Venice Airport, you'll see self-service ticket machines for ACTV and Alilaguna at the exit. However, in my experience, if you purchase through Klook, you'll receive a voucher. I recommend going directly to the Alilaguna service counter, where staff can immediately exchange it for a physical boat ticket. It's great that Klook offers this service.

This place is awesome and super easy to get tickets for. The sights are absolutely breathtaking. I only had time to check out the main building, unfortunately. I really hope they start offering tickets just for that part in the future. It would be great to be able to visit again without having to buy a full package.

Greeted by the uniformed staff friendly once arrived at the meeting point. everything was smooth. We had a VR introduction on the Gondola history before taking a short walk to the pier. The Gondola experience was great that we got the chance to tour around Venice slowly on the boat. The price on Klook is very reasonable when comparing to onsite appointment. Highly recommended!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolute must-do experience in Venice!Booking via Klook made the entire process completely seamless. Finding the designated meeting point was straightforward, and redeeming our mobile voucher took less than two minutes—no haggling or long queues required! Gliding down the quiet, charming side canals and out onto the Grand Canal was magical. Our gondolier was friendly, skillful, and gave us plenty of time to take pictures as we drifted past historic palaces. Tips for future bookers:Arrive 10–15 minutes early: Gives you plenty of time to locate the meeting point hassle-free.Sunset slot: Highly recommend booking the late afternoon/sunset slot for incredible light and photos.Would definitely recommend booking through Klook—it’s much more convenient and cost-effective than arranging it on the spot!

After meeting at the tour office, we received our tickets and headphones. Our English-speaking guide then led us on a walk to St. Mark's Basilica, explaining both its exterior and interior architecture. St. Mark's Basilica is incredibly beautiful inside, and a visit to the interior is an absolute must!

Highly recommend this tour package for those who wish to explore the beautiful Dolomites as a daytrip from Venice. Our tour guide, Chiara was friendly and great. She ensured that the itinerary was fulfilled in a timely manner and provided interesting background for each site we visited. In total, the entire tour lasted from 8am-6.30pm including the commute to the sites which can be challenging but our bus driver, Sergei did an amazing job maneuvering the pathway without making anyone sick and loved the relaxing playlist!

What to know before visiting Venice

Top Attractions in Venice

Doge’s Palace (Palazzo Ducale)

​Doge's Palace is a Gothic masterpiece that was once the seat of the Venetian Republic’s government. Inside, you’ll find grand halls, historic paintings, and secret passageways. Don’t miss walking across the Bridge of Sighs, which connects the palace to the old prison!

Basilica San Marco (St. Mark’s Basilica)

Located in Piazza San Marco, St. Mark's Basilica (Basilica di San Marco) is one of the most beautiful in Italy. Its golden mosaics, domes, and marble floors reflect centuries of Venice’s wealth and art. Climb to the balcony for great views of the square.

Peggy Guggenheim Collection

If you enjoy modern art, don’t miss the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, one of the top modern art museums in Venice, Italy! The building itself was once Peggy Guggenheim’s home, giving it a cozy, personal feel.

Canal Grande (Grand Canal)

The Grand Canal is Venice’s main waterway, lined with palaces and bridges. Hop on a vaporetto (water bus) for a scenic ride through the heart of the city, passing landmarks like the Rialto Bridge and Palazzo Contarini del Bovolo.

Piazza San Marco (Saint Mark’s Square)

Known as Venice’s living room, St. Mark's Square is filled with history, music, and stunning architecture. Visit in the early morning or evening to enjoy it with fewer crowds. You can also visit Mark's campanile to admire Venice from above!

Ponte di Rialto (Rialto Bridge)

The Rialto Bridge is one of Venice’s most iconic bridges. It’s a great spot for photos, souvenir shopping, and watching gondolas glide beneath. Visit at sunset for the best light over the Venetian Lagoon.

San Giorgio Maggiore

Across from St. Mark’s Square, this peaceful island is home to a church designed by Andrea Palladio. Climb its bell tower for a quiet view of the Venetian Lagoon and the red rooftops of the city.

Palazzo Contarini del Bovolo

Famous for its spiral staircase, this small palace offers one of the best rooftop terraces in Venice. The climb is short, and the view over the canals and San Marco district is worth it.

Santa Maria della Salute

Santa Maria della Salute sits at the mouth of the Grand Canal and can be seen from almost anywhere in Venice. Inside, you’ll find impressive paintings by Titian and stunning domes that shine in the sunlight.

Tips before visiting Venice

1. Visit early or late to avoid crowds

Venice can get crowded, especially around San Marco and Rialto Bridge. Plan to visit main attractions early in the morning or later in the evening. You’ll enjoy a more peaceful experience and better photos.

2. Bring comfortable shoes

You’ll walk a lot in Venice since there are no cars. Wear comfortable shoes for walking tours along narrow streets and bridges. Water-resistant footwear is handy, especially if visiting during high tide.

3. Use public transport wisely

Water buses (vaporetti) are the easiest way to explore the Venetian Lagoon and reach Murano or Burano. You can also use Google Maps to check routes and schedules.

To make your trip even smoother, book your Venice Pass through Klook for easier access to public transport and top attractions around the city!
