What to expect
Built on more than 100 islands, Venice is famed for its network of dusky-blue canals, lined with elaborate architecture and criss-crossed by beautiful stone bridges. And this day trip from Istria to Venice sees you crossing the Adriatic Sea by boat for a chance to explore with free time in this romantic Italian city.You'll arrive in style into San Basilio pier, right in the heart of Venice, to begin your discovery of 'La Serenissima.' As you wander through this fabled place, there's plenty of time to spot some of the city's highlights. Don't miss the legendary St Mark's Square – a piazza dominated by the beautiful Byzantine basilica of St Mark and its belfry.Maybe take a gondola ride, find as many bridges as you can and dip in and out of classic eateries – there's loads to do here. You'll make your own way to the port to leave Venice in the early evening and return to Croatia having seen one of Italy's top cities.

Venice was really busy and expensive , the guides were very knowledgable but perhaps take smaller groups as you have to rush to keep up and have difficulty hearing what they are saying. On the ferry we were told if we wanted to do the water taxi, a gondola , go through the Grand Canal and lunch with the guides it would be a further 105 euros each and they required cash so we did 3 out of the 4 and had to find a cash machine and pay once back on the ferry. Weather was bad on Grand Canal

Good trip but there was no advance warning that we needed cash to book the tour package/lunch on arrival which would have been helpful.

The whole day was fantastic and unforgettable. We chose to take part in the guided tour which was an extra €100 each. This included water taxi to St Mark”s Square, lunch with wine, gondola ride and tour of the lagoon and islands, definitely worth it. Just wish we’d had more time to spend there. The guides were great, very knowledgeable and friendly. Ferry trip from Porec took approximately 3 hours, but what a wonderful way to arrive in Venice. Would highly recommend this trip.
