You often travel alone or with others, whether it's with family, friends, or as a couple. Venice is ideal if you want to have a pleasant time with your loved one!

Famous for its canals, gondolas, and glaciers, it is one of the most romantic cities in the world. Here are 5 things to do as a couple in Venice!

Getting lost in the alleys

As the ultimate city of romance, Venice offers you charming landscapes. Stroll and get lost in the winding alleys to fully enjoy this escape for two. These moments are important, far from the daily worries. And you won't be able to forget them, believe us!

2/ Enjoy ice cream.

Fancy a little break during your Venetian stroll? How about indulging in some succulent Italian ice cream to cool off a bit.

If you visit Venice during another, slightly colder season, we recommend the hot chocolates from some vendors, which are a real treat for the taste buds!

3/ Take a ride on a vaporello

A gondola ride in Venice, what couple hasn't dreamed of it for a romantic tête-à-tête? Know that you can just as well enjoy a tour of the canals by vaporetto, which is also much cheaper!

There you'll discover the same city charm as you would on a gondola gliding along the Grand Canal. So, let yourself be carried by the water and enjoy this moment.

Stroll across the Rialto Bridge

He is one of the most famous names in the Italian city. You won't miss him on a vaporetto ride! But we advise you to go there on foot to enjoy a breathtaking panoramic view!

It is often confused with the Bridge of Sighs, the very same one Casanova passed through centuries ago.

Attend the Carnival

Venice is famous for its Carnival, so if you're in the area in February, take advantage of this majestic event that will take your breath away with its colors and beauty.

And if you don't have the opportunity to go at that time, don't worry! You'll find plenty of costume and mask shops that will get you into the Carnival spirit as if you were there.
