Grand Canal, Venice

Overview

Take a trip to Venice on your Italy vacation

Venice is an Italian city steeped in timeless appeal, often regarded as one of the most beautiful and romantic destinations on the planet. Navigating its tangled streets, free from the chaos of vehicular traffic, is like stepping into a serene yet grand bygone era. 

This aquatic wonderland is renowned for its intricate network of winding canals, which serve as both highways and artful waterways. Gondolas glide effortlessly through the city, and vaporettos whisk you from one picturesque island to another. The iconic Grand Canal is adorned with ornate palazzos. 

Venice's architectural prowess is a testament to its rich history. Majestic churches, such as St. Mark's Basilica, with opulent Byzantine mosaics and grand palaces like the Doge's Palace, exude historical significance. The city's romanticism extends to its charming squares, where you can sip espresso and savour Venetian delights at open-air cafes. Piazza San Marco, Venice's elegant main square, is a testament to the city's timeless allure. 

Venice's narrow streets reveal hidden gems at every turn. Boutiques offer exquisite Murano glassware, handcrafted masks, and high-fashion clothing. The Rialto Bridge connects you to the bustling Rialto Market, where local vendors sell fresh produce, seafood, and spices. 

Venice is a city of traditions, where vibrant festivals like Carnevale and the Historic Regatta celebrate the city's rich cultural heritage. Whether you explore the iconic islands of Murano and Burano, renowned for their glassmaking and lace, or get lost in the city's timeless allure, Venice promises an unforgettable Italian vacation.

Italy is full of hidden culinary gems, but one place that really stands out is Trattoria di Via Serra in Bologna. It’s beloved by locals for its authentic Emilian dishes like handmade tortellini in brodo and rich tagliatelle al ragù

One unforgettable tradition travelers should try to experience is a sagra—a local food festival that celebrates a specific dish, ingredient, or harvest. These are often held in small towns, especially in the summer and fall, and they offer an amazing window into real Italian life

Most tourists don’t realize just how deeply regional Italy is. Not just in terms of food, but also in language, traditions, and identity. Italian culture is really a patchwork of local cultures

My wife and I have just returned from our 5th trip with Goway. Once again everything ran smoothly from first day to last. This trip was the 9 day all Ireland tour which covered both north & south Ireland. The tour was operated by Rabbies tours whom we used in Scotland and the 16 passenger van only had 6 passengers including us.Other than a couple of days the weather was prety good although the wind did get a bit wild. The pub food was delicious & i got a taste for real Guiness. We spent a few extra days in Dublin and found it very expensive, the excange rate didn't help. Our travel consultant Jaqueline personalised the trip and was very helpful. George Croome

We were able to see the perfect amount of sites during our nearly 3 weeks in Australia. Sam Day was extremely knowledgable about every step of the travel process. He was incredibly patient with all the demand my wife and me had. We really look forward to using his services again.Alan Rosenberg

Harpreet Litt provided us with a rich experience for our week. She offered good choices for local tour companies. We had a very good guide in Osaka. She is an Osaka resident with good English skills. She took extra pains to include opportunities we requested Osaka was a beautiful city at night. My photos of restaurants and street food were colorful and fun. Food was good too.Noel Chrisman

1186952 trip reference - Croatia and Montenegro. Dear Goway Travel Team! I wanted to reach out and share some well-deserved praise for Jacqueline, who has assisted me closely with several of my travels. She recently curated a trip for me to Croatia, the beautiful islands, and Montenegro, and it was an absolute home run. Jacqueline has an incredible ability to listen to her clients' needs and translate them perfectly into a flawless itinerary. Her articulation, guideline execution, and professionalism are unmatched. What sets her apart is her forward-thinking approach—she always knows the exact hotspots and trends, ensuring the pace of the trip matches my speed perfectly. Everything transitioned seamlessly thanks to her attention to detail and care. She is a massive asset to your organization, and her consideration makes every vacation stress-free. I will absolutely continue to use her for all my future travels. Kindest regards, Vince Sacco Vince Sacco

Absolutely incredible trip! From beginning to end! All accommodations were excellent. If you want to experience Safaris this trip will fulfill all your expectations! A special thanks to our driver we had for our entire trip Evans! He made our trip over the top! The Hot air balloon ride in the Masai Mara is a must…it’s breathtaking!Pam Seitz

I have worked with Goway several times in the past two years and every single trip has been unforgettable. Specifically, our travel advisor, Maria, has helped us book phenomenal trips to Thailand, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Ireland, and most recently, Iceland. Maria is so wonderful and easy to talk to, but what really stands out is her ability to get to know her clients so she can plan trips that perfectly align with our interests and desires. I cannot recommend her strongly enough! Her expertise, hard-work, and dedication towards each trip has given myself, my family, and friends memories to last a lifetime! Kayla Covello
