Things to do in Venice

It was basically a self-guided walk after the glass-making demonstration. It wasn't as lively as I had expected, and you can tell that both towns are slowly declining as these traditional artisan industries struggle to survive. In fact, very few young people want to learn these crafts anymore because the work requires years of dedication. In Burano, only about 20 women are said to still possess the traditional lace-making skills. Despite that, the museum is well worth a visit, as it provides valuable insight into the history of Venetian craftsmanship and helps you appreciate these remarkable artistic traditions.

We wanted to ride as a couple, and since the cost was about the same as taking a gondola directly, we booked here so we could choose a specific time. The initial VR experience gave us a little touch of Venice's history. Afterward, we walked through the maze-like streets of Venice and boarded the gondola. We thoroughly enjoyed everything from the narrow canals to the Grand Canal. As for safety, we often wear life jackets when getting on boats, but this time there were no jackets provided, and I thought it would be dangerous to fall into the Grand Canal or other waterways. However, without ruining the atmosphere, I suppose this is just a part of everyday life in Venice. A gondola ride in Venice is a must!

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.

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!

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!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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!

WHat an absolute beautiful tour of the Opera House. It was breathtaking and hope to one day return and attend an event. Booking was very simple and once in the Opera House the staff were very polite.

We had an amazing day exploring the Dolomites! The weather was absolutely perfect, and the sunshine falling over the majestic mountains and beautiful lakes made the scenery even more breathtaking. Our driver and guide, Marco, was incredibly friendly and showed us so many beautiful photo spots along the way. His interesting explanations and thoughtful guidance made the whole experience even more enjoyable.

We booked a day trip from Milan to Venice and overall it was a very good experience. The tour was well organised and easy to follow, making it a convenient way to see Venice within a limited timeframe. As expected with a day trip, time in Venice was quite limited, so the visit felt a bit rushed. However, we still managed to explore key areas and enjoy the unique atmosphere of the city. There was also some free time to browse and shop in the small traditional shop houses, which added a nice local touch to the experience. It is advisable to carry cash when visiting, as some of the smaller shops may not accept card payments. Overall, a worthwhile and enjoyable tour, especially for travellers short on time.
