VENICE with family, Venice with children

VENICE with family, Venice with children
This family's experience:

Activities: We did a 30-minute gondola ride through the canals. It was expensive and touristy, but still magical! We asked for a tour in the interior canals rather than on the Grand Canal

Highlights: Although expensive, it was worth it. The children were dazzled as we went along the canals, right next to the water. It was truly a unique experience, and we enjoyed the peacefulness of the smaller canals ✨

This family's experience:

Activities: We took a gondola ride on the Grand Canal, passing under the Rialto Bridge. The gondolier steered us with a long wooden paddle, and the boat was decorated with golden statues of horses

Highlights: The kids loved being so close to the water and feeling like they were sinking. It was a special experience to ride in a boat on the streets of water in Venice ✨
