What to do in Venice for a romantic trip ?

Venice, the city of lovers?

Yes, Venice is a particularly romantic city. It is a city that knows how to offer couples romantic moments and places: a sunset on San Marco square, a gondola ride on the canals lined with Renaissance palaces, the lapping of the waters once again calm, kisses exchanged on a stone bridge, random embraces in the alleys.

If you plan to go there as a couple, here are some activities you must do!

The campanile and its breathtaking panorama

Perched almost 100 meters above the square, at the top of the campanile of San Marco, you can admire the maze of red roofs and the immense lagoon of Venice. There is an elevator that takes visitors to the top of this tower so that they can enjoy, on a clear day, a magnificent view of the Dolomites.

Live like Casanova

As long as you are in Venice with your lover, you can have fun in the shoes of the famous Italian adventurer Casanova, originally from Venice! For example, you can have a drink at the Cantina Do Spade, located near the Rialto Bridge in Calle delle Do Spade, where he used to meet his mistresses, or visit the Doge's Palace, which was his prison until he escaped.

Take a gondola ride

Would Venice really be Venice without gondola rides? Certainly not! It's probably the most popular activity in the romantic city!

There is nothing more romantic than gliding slowly on the water while admiring the magnificent Baroque and Renaissance buildings. Numerous gondolas await you at the foot of the main bridges of Venice, such as the Rialto Bridge or the Accademia Bridge.

It may sound a bit cliché but you can easily recognize the gondoliers by their hats and striped shirts.

Visit the streets of Burano and Murano!

If you are planning to go away for more than a weekend, take a motorboat ride to the islands of the Venetian lagoon! The streets of Burano are lined with pastel-colored houses and small lace-making workshops. While Murano is famous for its decorative objects made of colored glass.

Have a romantic dinner in a beautiful restaurant

There is no shortage of romantic restaurants in Venice! In a trip or a romantic outing, the step of dinner in a restaurant is almost mandatory. In Venice, there is a wide range of restaurants to choose from, such as Poste Vecie, San Silvestro or La Porta d'Acqua.

With so many things to do, it's sure to be a successful romantic trip!
