Venice is unlike anywhere else — a city built across more than 100 small islands, held together by winding canals and countless bridges. No cars, no rush, just narrow streets, grand old palaces and water at every turn. 🌊 It's the kind of place that's genuinely hard to compare to anything else in Europe.
Early in the morning, we depart by bus from Ljubljana towards Punta Sabbioni, where we board a boat across the Venetian lagoon straight into the heart of the city, St Mark's Square. 🚌⛴️
From there, you'll have free time to explore at your own pace — wander past the Doge's Palace and the Bridge of Sighs, step inside St Mark's Basilica, or walk over to the Rialto Bridge and the market around it, one of the best places to get a feel for the everyday atmosphere of the city. Keep your camera ready — Venice photographs beautifully at almost every corner. 📸
Take some time to walk along the Grand Canal too, Venice's main waterway, lined with grand old palaces and crossed by some of its most famous bridges. And if you want the full Venetian experience, hop on a gondola for a slower, closer look at the city's quieter canals and hidden corners. 🛶
For those who want to see more, we also offer an optional boat tour to the islands of Murano and Burano (extra cost, payable on the trip). Murano is known for centuries of glassmaking tradition, and we'll visit a workshop to watch artisans shape glass by hand. Burano, meanwhile, is famous for its brightly coloured houses lining the canals — one of the most photogenic spots in the whole lagoon. 🎨🏠
In the late afternoon, we say goodbye to Venice and head back to Ljubljana, arriving in the evening. 🌅
