Canal Grande

Venice is renowned for the beauty of its setting, its architecture and its artworks. The city in its entirety is listed as World Heritage Site, along with its lagoon.

Take a public water boat. Sit in the open area (if not available, wait for the place, take day tickets so you don't need to get down). Sit, relax, soak in and enjoy Venice's essence.

If in Venice for romance, think about taking a gondola ride around some of this fascinating network of canals . If not, take the public transport to get around - less costly but still the same beauty!

Most of these buildings date from the 13th to the 18th centuries and pose a Venetian-Gothic style. The best way to see these beautiful buildings is to travel by the vaporetto , the water bus . Read more

Just relax and enjoy the stunning architecture . Sit outside to feel the energy.

Beautiful and picturesque. Some new and amazing round every corner. Great place to chill and people watch . Friendly staff great food.

Unlimited pass for 1-3 days on vaporetos is the best investment during the stay here. Also it allows you to swim over to the other neighboring islands

Locally called as Canalazzo. The best way to see the beautiful buildings along the canal is to travel by the vaporetto , the water bus . There are a few halal kebab and takeaway outlets. Read more

Boats work 24H. You can ride in the evening and in the night. It’s very special atmosphere here) Make sure to take warm clothes .

To do: take the No.1 vaporetto ACTV linea 1 from Piazzale Roma to Piazza San Marco. To avoid crowd: Go in the late afternoon, as at this time of day, most people travel in the other direction.

The main tourist spot for Venice, with Rialto bridge and waterside restaurants . Be careful because you’ll be charged extra in these parts ;)

Take the gondola ride in the canal . It is a must. Expensive: yes, cost 80€ before 7pm and 100 € after 7pm

Love this city , the small and grand canals and the whole wandering around by gondola and vaporetto !

A Venice trip won’t ever be complete without going to the Grand Canal where you can ride water taxis . Have the best time riding vaporettos and gondolas (you can bargain w/ rates). Best during sunset .

I like it so much❤️, but when I went there it was summer, so it was too hot , it was a horrible..So when it summer and you want to go there, I recommend to not go, I hope I visit it one time in winter

If it's windy, that much boat trip and sea may make you feel a little bit sick ???? but great view though, the houses are really really in the sea!

Take the vaporeto #1 in direction to the terminal and you will experience a beautiful trip all the way down the Canal Grande ✨

No trip to Venice would be complete without a Gondola ride on the Grand Canal . Be sure to haggle the price!

Wonderful to take the water bus line 1 and go along all the canal with all the beautiful houses, churches and palaces .

The best way to see it is via the water bus . Unless you can walk on water, then just do that, Jesus.

The best way to enjoy is take a personal boat this way you don't have to be on a larger one with wall to wall people. They all looked like sardines. :)

Countess Lelia Passi offers cooking classes in her beautiful kitchen at Palazzo Tiepolo. Built in the 16th century, it's located on the Grand Canal between the Rialto Bridge & San Marco Square.

A great way to get around. Note that it can be a bit choppy when you get close to the ends but it's normally pretty smooth.

Catch the No. 1 or No. 2 Vaporetto to get a trip along the full stretch of Venice's Grand Canal . Beautiful.

For a trip along the full stretch of the Grand Canal , hop aboard the No. 1 or No. 2 Vaporetto . Beautiful.

A bit too commercial nowadays,also very dirty and graffiti everywhere,very expensive especially when the cruise shops are in.no more haggling gondola prices it's €80 fixed rate per boat!!!!

No words can explain how beautiful is it !!! See the pictures !! In fact you need to come see it and feel it ❤️❤️❤️

Great place to visit. And the water transport is great option to look around the city

it's very nice, take a vaporetto tour of it but this is not the only beauty of venice, visit other less populated areas.

Worth getting the river bus at night for a magical journey

Best location in Venice to watch sunset

Wonderful walk around!

It is very lovely and romantic place to spend time with your love one

View the Venetian Palaces along the Grand Canal up to St. Mark's square by ACTV boat # 1 ( from water bus stop "Railway station" to "San Zaccaria" - 35-40 minutes)

I am in love with this city ! Just like living in a fairy tale #romantic????

Beautiful gondolas.... check our last travel story about Venezia, click this link! Read more

This city is a unbelievable. Love it. Will come back soon.

Gondola rides come out here if you want a closer look. Much better than a water taxi , however it’s 80€ cash.

You can have a beautiful trip on the full length of the canal on a vaporetto .

Amazing. Easy to get anywhere and everywhere by boat

It's all around you. Enjoy the view !

There are over 170 buildings on the Grand Canal including restaurants , hotels and entertainment venues.

Perfect place with perfect view

Beautiful view of the city from the canal

İt s dream to live and visit there... Amazing!

Cruise boats pass through sometimes.

Rialto you can’t miss even if you try.????
