Product Information

Traghetto is a gondola service that locals use to cross the Grand Canal and is far cheaper than hiring a private gondola. Perhaps, you may just enjoy the view of that church from Venice proper, as it is just across the water from Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute and the Punta della Dogana art museum. In Venice, seafood is an important staple, with popular traditional dishes being bigoli in salsa (pasta in anchovy sauce), risotto al nero di seppia (risotto with cuttlefish ink), and fried sardines. Popular drinks include Spritz (Campari or Aperol mixed with Prosecco and seltzer), Veneto grappa, and Bellinis (white peach juice mixed with Prosecco) that were invented in Venice.

One of the Grand Canal's most iconic landmarks, the Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute, also has free entry. This Roman Catholic church was commissioned by Venice’s plague survivors to offer their thanks for salvation and is now said to have healing properties. Poveglia Island is regarded as one of the most ghostly places on the planet, featuring a desolate old plague quarantine building. For those that are brave enough, exploring this spooky island is one of the most adventurous things to do in Venice. Before we explore what you should be getting up to during your time in Venice, you need to know how you’re going to get around!

Mark’s Square is the only piazza in the whole of Venice. All other open plots are campo, which was cultivated land before it was paved with cobblestones. Go on a free walking tour– This is the best way to learn about the city on a budget. Just be sure to tip your guide at the end! If art or photography are your jam there are also a bunch of admission-free galleries like Galleria Traghetto and Galleria La Salizada, which showcase contemporary Italian art and photography. Dal Moro serves fresh homemade pasta for €5.00 and up. The pasta is delicious and the portions are extremely generous. Closed on Sundays. Ultimately, the easiest way to eat in Venice on a budget is to visit local produce and fish markets. Walk around eating frittura mista, fried seafood mix, to eat like a local. Contrary to popular belief, supermarkets are available on the islands.

Why it’s awesome: Did you know that the grand Rialto Bridge is one of the only bridges that cross the Grand Canal in Venice? Because of this, it’s considered one of the most famous places in Venice! This stone bridge was built in the mid-1500s and supports a street, two staircases, and a variety of shops on top of it. If you come during the day, be prepared to share the bridge with hundreds of photo-happy tourists! But as you cross, it’s easy to see why the Rialto Bridge is so famous. It boasts one of the best views in the entire city! The popular and most expensive way to do this is to take the “romantic gondola ride” that you’ve probably seen in movies. You know, the ones where they are singing as they row down the quiet and romantic canal ways of Venice.I have been using World Nomads for some time now and made a few claims over the years. They’re easy to use, professional and relatively affordable. They may also let you buy or extend a policy once you’ve started your trip and are already abroad which is super handy. Stay with a local– Accommodation is very expensive in Venice. Try using Couchsurfing to stay with locals for free and make a new friend to show you around this amazing city. Food nearby: Bistrot de Venise is a restaurant that serves incredible Venetian dishes in a wonderfully authentic setting. Velvet covered walls and limestone statues make you realize how unique this great city really is. The food is served in small portions but is an absolute delight to the senses! Be sure to indulge in a 5-course meal while sipping on some of the finest wine in Venice. On this outing, you’ll get the chance to step inside the glass studio and see how they make glass vases, light fixtures and jewelry. This is a truly unique experience that should not be missed during your time in Venice! As always, AirBnb is a brilliant alternative to hotel or hostel accommodation.You can find a range of Airbnb rentals outside the city centre for as low as €35 for a private room if you book early. Prices are usually much higher during peak season.

Why it’s awesome: Less popular than its San Marco counterpart, the San Sebastiano Basilica is just as grand if not more so, and heavily under-rated. Step 7: Attach TV-Logic 058W and articulating arm of choice, power monitor via 3-pin port on the front of Rialto-sideSpring is lovely as the city begins to defrost and temperatures rise, but note that attractions may still close early for winter hours. Fall in Venice is thought to be the most magical time of year. Do not forget to dress appropriately for a range of temperatures. Local wines and Prosecco only cost around €1- €3 per glass. In fact, wine gets its name ombra, meaning shade, for the act of hiding in the shade with a drink during lunch. Nightlife in Venice If you’re a music lover, this museum is the perfect place to spend the day exploring in complete fascination! The fact that it’s absolutely free just adds to the excitement. Feeding pigeons is something that many tourists take great delight in, but be aware that it is now not allowed in many parts of Venice. This is because the pigeons have ruined many artworks and buildings that are a great part of Venetian history!

The Rialto Market is Venice’s main market and it has been around for the past 700 years. It’s a huge food market with all kinds of meat, produce, and fish. Come in the morning before the market is flooded with tourists to watch all the hustle and bustle. You’ll find the market northwest of the Rialto Bridge in the district of San Polo. 6. Tour the Peggy Guggenheim Collection Venice People Mover (monorail) is a wheelchair-accessible, cable-operated public transit system that connects Tronchetto island with Piazzale Roma. You can also expect acqua alta (high water) during this time, which makes navigating the city a little more interesting! Why it’s awesome: It might be one of the most iconic landmarks in all of Venice, but the San Giorgio Maggiore Bell Tower is worth the hype. Located on St. Mark’s Square, this 323-foot tower boasts some of the best panoramic views in the entire city. Although it collapsed in 1902 from fierce lightning and fire, it was rebuilt as a replica as it was before. And at the top is the belfry, which holds five different bells that ring at various points of the day. The best way to find cheap eats in Venice is to just walk around and accidentally find a place, which is pretty much what we did. Cheap food in Venice usually entails pasta, pizza, paninis, aperitivos and cicchetti.The first services leave around 5am so early birds can still catch the morning sunrise and if you decide to head home a little later in the evening, the last train leaves just after midnight.
