Private tours with operators like The Tour Guy provide skip-the-line access to St. Mark’s Basilica—known as the Church of Gold—guide you through St. Mark’s Square and winding, boutique-lined streets to the Rialto Bridge, and conclude with a gondola ride along the city’s canals. Explore the boutiques along Le Mercerie, one of Venice’s premier shopping streets, and sample cicchetti—traditional small bites like fried mozzarella and arancini. For a quintessential and Instagrammable Venetian experience, visit Caffè Florian, Italy’s oldest coffee house, established in 1720. Located just steps from St. Mark’s Basilica, it serves robust coffees and decadent hot chocolates. While prices are on the expensive side, the historic atmosphere makes the cafe well worth a visit.
