What people love about Italy Tours from Venice
- Italia Amore Mio (Small Group)
Great sites,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
- Taste of Italy with Sorrento - 10 Days/9 Nights (9 destinations)
This was by far the best tour we have been on. Diana was a great tour director and the itinerary was first class. CIE took care of all the details and we just enjoyed our vacation. I highly recommend this tour.
- Highlights of Italy
Enjoyed Highlights of Italy tour this August. Especially enjoyed Venice, with its spectacle of grand piazza's, canals and inviting shops of amazing masks and general festive atmosphere. Found our tour guide Inga, both engaging and professional with many tales of interest. Cinque Terra, was also very memorable with it's beautiful mountain top towns and vivid blue seascapes, walking the trail was unforgettable. With a great bunch of fellow travellers this was one of the most enjoyable tours i have booked. Only disappointment was arriving in Mestre to Hotel Mondail and the associated Hotel.açcross the road, this put a damper on the start of the trip, but fortunately the standard of hotels improved as we travelled throughout Italy. Overall fantastic trip.
What our customers ask about Italy Tours from Venice
Which areas of Venice are most tours based in when starting their journey?
Venice tour starting points cluster around three key neighborhoods. The San Marco district puts visitors steps from the iconic square while the Santa Croce area near Piazzale Roma and Cannaregio district by the train station offer convenient access points. Accommodations range from the canal-side Hotel San Cassiano in San Polo to the practical Hotel Villa Rosa near Santa Lucia station and Hotel Mercure in mainland Mestre. A TourRadar traveler mentioned: "Our hotel location near St. Mark's Square was perfect for exploring Venice's main attractions."
What transportation options are available from Venice Marco Polo Airport to tour starting points?
Private water taxis whisk travelers from Marco Polo Airport to Venice hotels in about 45 minutes offering an introduction to the city's waterways. Those arriving at Piazzale Roma should expect a 700-meter walk to their hotel as Venice's streets are car-free. Hotels like Mercure and Delfino provide straightforward airport access. One TourRadar traveler noted: "The water taxi transfer was seamless and gave us our first magical view of Venice."
What's included in the first days' sightseeing in Venice?
Day one typically features a guided walk through the atmospheric Cannaregio district followed by visits to St. Mark's Basilica and Doge's Palace. Many tours include a climb up the San Giorgio Maggiore bell tower for city views and a Vaporetto pass for water bus travel. One TourRadar traveler shared: "Our initial walking tour helped us get oriented and the Doge's Palace visit was a highlight."
What's the best time of year to start a tour in Venice?
Venice welcomes tour groups from April through October with the busiest period falling between June and September. Local hotels maintain consistent service standards year-round including the well-positioned San Cassiano and Mercure properties.

What are the best day trips from Venice included in tours?
Day trips from Venice focus on three main destinations: Murano's centuries-old glass workshops Burano's rainbow-colored fishing houses and the rolling hills of the Prosecco wine region. The "Venice & Jewels of Veneto" tour covers all three islands plus less-visited Torcello. As one TourRadar traveler shared: "The Murano glass-blowing demonstration was fascinating and Burano's colorful houses were a photographer's dream."

Venice tour accommodations typically feature 3-4 star properties like the Hotel Continental or Hotel San Cassiano in central locations. Some itineraries include unique options such as stays aboard the S.S. La Venezia river ship. As noted by a TourRadar traveler: "The hotels were in excellent locations making it easy to explore the city even during free time."
