On an Italy cruise, a stop in Venice is a decision you will never regret. This canal-filled city is equal parts gritty and romantic, known as a fishermen’s town turned cultural hub. Venice is popular for honeymooners and international tourists alike, filling the elaborate, sinuous system of canals with the buzz of activity. Like Rome and Florence, there’s a magic to the city’s energy that sweeps you up in it, whether you’re exploring St. Mark’s Square on foot or enjoying a gondola ride along the Grand Canal before sailing on one of our cruises from Venice.
The historic beauty of Venice dates back to the Middle Ages, and ever since, it has captivated the public consciousness in a way that cities like Paris and New York do. Art buffs, foodies, historians, and laid-back beachgoers will all find something to love in Venice. If you’re craving time away from the crowd, head to the Lido sandbar for a little rest and relaxation. Ideally, find one of the city’s signature red rooftops and take a panoramic shot overlooking the water and the city all in one. Fresh Adriatic seafood and copious amounts of pasta, wine, and gelato are called for, if not a mandatory part of, a Venice cruise.
