Venice Reviews

Me and my girlfriend decided that in April we would head to Venice as Rome would be too busy with it being Easter and all. We flew with EasyJet from East Midlands Airport to Venice Marco Polo airport, the flight is relatively short and we found the Venetian airport to be very charming. Once you have got your baggage i you ...  Read the complete review

Venice I've just recently returned from a fantastic holiday in Venice, so I thought I'd put down my thoughts on the city as a whole, with reviews on specifics to follow. We arrived courtesy of Easyjet at about half nine in the evening at Marco Polo airport, on the mainland, not far from the city. There are a variety of ...  Read the complete review

Venice is a simply fantastic city. If, like me you enjoy city breaks with your loved one, you can't go far wrong with somewhere as stunning as the floating city. We flew from the UK into Venice Marco Polo airport, which is actually on the mainland. Venice itself is situated in a lagoon off the coast of Italy. From the airport, you can ...  Read the complete review

Venice. I was under strict instructions to make sure I was off duty for my birthday but unfortunately I was unable to arrange to have the time off until the following week for what was supposed to be a special birthday surprise. Unfortunately due to a couple of circumstances beyond our control I actually found out that ...  Read the complete review

Yes it can be done. We were staying in Rome for a week and found that a day trip to Venice by air was cheaper than a day trip to Florence by train. So we got up at the crack of dawn and flew with Ryan Air from Rome Ciampino to Treviso airport- a 40 minute bus ride from Venice itself. It should be noted that whilst Ryan Air seemingly want to charge ...  Read the complete review

Venice has been on my must visit list for some time now. I have always imagined it to be an extremely romantic city and I longed to be whisked off there for a special occasion. After years of hinting, my perseverance finally paid off last month when my husband "surprised" me with a long weekend to celebrate my birthday. ...  Read the complete review

My partner and I did Venice in July 2007 on a very tight budget, so I'm hoping my review will provide a few tips for how to do such an expensive tourist destination with a credit-crunch budget! First of all - stay in a hostel. We stayed in the lovely Locanda SS.Giovanni e Paolo, which, while much more expensive than other hostels we'd stayed ...  Read the complete review

I visited Venice earlier this year and I had very mixed feelings about it. Being in Venice was wonderful because it is a city that has such a rich history and there is so much to see. In many ways it's like being in a big museum, everything has some kind of historical significance and the whole experience is completely unique. I love ...  Read the complete review

The best time's to see the city is in the morning or at evening. Its alot quieter and its much cooler. In venice theres plenty of hotels to choose rooms, But ...  Read the complete review

I visited Venice in June 2008 as part of a three-centre trip, staying at the Venice East Crowne Plaza, outside of Venice but easily accessible via a train which took around 25 minutes. On first impressions, Venice appears not to have much of an atmosphere, as on arrival in St Marks Square, you are greeted with a sea of tourists (and ...  Read the complete review

The City of Romance I have been to Venice in January 2007 with my cousin (unfortunately). The hotel we stayed was Caveletto hotel , which had magnificent views and was very close to Marcus square. I fell in love with the city , it was like they have build a city on water . I have never seen clear blue and green canal water which ...  Read the complete review

Venice is packed with fashion stores, such as Max Mara, Sergio Rossi, Cartier, Krizia, Gucci, Louis Vuitton and many others too. That is the case for the most important Italian cities, of course, but Venice has the advantage of an original and beautiful scenery, so the pleasure of shopping is in this case double. Right at the end of San ...  Read the complete review

A short summary This is a travelogue about the trip that my wife, Nikki, and I took to Italy (Milan and Venice) in the period from June 7th to June 14th 2003.

CINQUE GIORNI A VENEZIA I’ve not previously spent long in Italy, apart from brief forays into the north whilst ‘doing the passes’ from Switzerland, and a couple of docking manoeuvres courtesy of a cheapo-cruise in the Med. (I’m the person who took one look at the queue for the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, and went and had a beer ...  Read the complete review

Most families have an elderly, somewhat eccentric but much loved great aunt. Everything about her tells of her long, fascinating and not a little notorious life. Nowadays she loves to sit and tell her nieces and nephews all about the things she got up to. The relatives mutter about "putting unnatural ideas in their ...  Read the complete review

I went to Venice many times (I'm Italian, you konw?) and my love for this city increase every time. It's e very beautiful place, for its monuments (St.Marco square is one of the most beautiful I've ever seen!) but not only. For the descriptions of the monuments you can read a guide, but I want to tell you what I is most important for ...  Read the complete review

I visited Venice on a day trip not long ago and I was dissapointed. I thought it would be the magical, unpolluted city thats advertised. However i soon found out that I was wrong. It has been over populated by tourists. If you were to see the famous Rialto Bridge you would be very dissapointed. It has been covered with tourist stalls and graffiti. ...  Read the complete review

I love this town, it is really very weird, old and a little cut off from the world, but also very quiet. There are no cars and no traffic or great noises, children can play on the roads and squares, an it is very romantic ;-) . Would you like to visit Venice? Read this opinion, I hope it can be useful for your travel! If you ...  Read the complete review

On arrival at Marco Polo airport, on our first short break to this city, we debated over a water-bus or water-taxi transfer to our accommodation. The former was cheaper but went around the houses and was cramped (and on our return very hot and uncomfortable in August). The latter was expensive, however the experience was memorable - remember ...  Read the complete review
