Discover Venice's romantic allure: Unbeatable fares, historic sites and more

Venice is a uniquely captivating city. Whether you're planning a one-day trip or intend to stay longer, the city has numerous attractions with a history that permeates every corner. The canals of Venice, forming a network around the city's buildings and streets, are its most iconic feature.

Exploit the uniqueness of the place by embarking on a water tram, notably on the Grand Canal, the most extensive canal in Venice that divides the city in half. It is a fantastic experience, especially for first-time visitors.

St. Mark's Square, the central point of Venice, is a key attraction. The square not only draws tourists, but locals also set up their stalls here. The most significant buildings in Venice dot the landscape of the square. These include St. Mark's Bell Tower - the highest point in the city, and The Doge's Palace which accommodated the ruling doge, the court and secret police. Moreover, the famous St. Mark's Basilica resides here.

Caffè Florian, also situated in St. Mark's Square, is one of the oldest cafes globally. In 2020, the café commemorated its 300th anniversary. Even more astonishingly, it has been in continuous operation for three centuries. It is rumoured that Charles Dickens, Lord Byron, and Goethe had coffee here. At present, it is among the chicest spots in Venice.

Venice boasts many magnificent bridges, one of the most intriguing being the Bridge of Sighs, located between the Doge's Palace and the prison. Constructed to link the tribunal to the prison, convicts were lead across this bridge to their cells. Its name purportedly originates from the sighs of despair by the convicted men as they bid farewell to their beloved women and freedom.
