Venice day-trip from Rome by high speed train including a gondola ride

Take a high-speed train from Rome straight to the center of Venice and explore the most romantic city in the world in a single day. The morning is free at your disposal to explore this marvelous city. In the afternoon you will enjoy a ride on an original Venetian gondola.
Duration 15 hours
Private tour pricing from 210 EUR per person
Group tour available in English
We thoroughly enjoyed the trip. Trip was well organized. We were picked up by a van from our hotel lobby. Tour coordinator was waiting at Termini for us. She gave train tickets to Venice and back , gondola tickets and gave very good instructions and maps for self guided tour of Venice. She also assisted in boarding train in Termini. There was about 7 hours time in Venice which gave ample time to see st Mark's basilica, the square, Rialto bridge and also take the gondola ride with some spare time for shopping. I highly recommend this tour if you only have 1 day to see Venice.

Great experience
It was an easy and convenient experience. It was nice having someone book the train ride and gondola ride for me. It was all very straight-forward, easy, and convenient. I would definitely recommend doing it — I’m glad I could spend a day to see the amazing city of Venice. Absolutely beautiful!!!
