102 tours in Venice, from €12 to €580 per person, average rating 4.8 based on 76938 reviews.
Every one of the 102 Venice tours here was picked by hand: we read every listing and kept only those rated 4.5★ or higher. Prices run from €12 per person for a priority visit of the basilica with a host to €580 per person for a full day with a private driver through the Prosecco hills. Tours in Venice split into three kinds. On foot it is the palace and the basilica with a guide, walks off the main routes, cicchetti at the bacari and cooking in a local kitchen. On the water it is gondolas, motorboats and the lagoon islands. The rest leave for the day to the Dolomites or Verona.
A quick way to choose: on a first visit pair the palace with its ticket and a gondola, and give the islands their own half day. Guided tours of Venice inside the basilica ask for covered shoulders and knees, most walks leave entrance fees and drinks to you, and some day trips start from the mainland. Prices depend on the date and your party size. The best reviewed tours in Venice come first below.
