Don't do this in Venice - Some mistakes that tourists should avoid in Venice Italy

[@orfeoassiti6669]

As a fellow venetian I can confirm that all you said is completely correct, it seems like you know the city really well and it makes me truly happy that somebody being born 10.000km away from my country chose to come here

[@margueriteperry9302]

Venice has always been a very economical holiday for me. I go for around 4 days, rent an apartment, buy groceries from shops and the early morning boats that bright fresh fruit and vegetables to their piazza market stands and eat one or two meals in casa each day, walk, and catch traghetti (the functional, mostly standing, "ferry" boat gondole that locals use along the Grand Canal) for about 2 or 3 Euro, and only go out to eat or drink in local or establishments off of the well trodden tourist trails. I usually spend, with the rental shared with one or two others, about €30 to €50 per day in total. When I've been by myself, I've stayed in a nunnery to make the trip even cheaper, and keep my money for the galleries and museums.

[@TravelAddictsLife]

That is a great way to save money

[@casomai]

Sono una delle persone che hanno pulito uno degli alloggi di cui parli. Purtroppo devo ammettere che molti turisti non hanno rispettato né la città né il nostro lavoro. Solo sabato scorso ci hanno rotto una tenda della finestra ( presumibilmente appendendosi) e completamente divelto la porta dell' armadio di camera. Per non parlare della spazzatura ( una busta grande di tipo condominiale piena di bottiglie vuote di alcolici e superalcolici sono di solito la vostra spazzatura) . Abituatevi a fare la differenziata della spazzatura, perché noi dobbiamo metterci le mani per dividerla, altrimenti prendiamo la multa. E questo significa poco rispetto del nostro lavoro e del nostro tempo.

[@BHBULOP]

​@@casomai a molti sfugge il concetto di 'differenziata'. Unita alla maleducazione di tanti,il risultato è quello di cui lei parla. Gli stessi individui che poi ,magari, fanno il video su TT, raccontando quanto la città,(questa ,od altre) ,pecchi a loro parere in pulizia Hanno la trave nell'occhio, ma non se ne accorgono

[@lyndalombardi6473]

Grazie, all excellent tips. As a Canadian who stayed in Venice for the month of April 2022, I can confirm that these are things all tourists need to know. One DO I might add is to learn a few phrases in Italian, the basic please, thank you, good morning, where is the bathroom, how much does that cost? It is so appreciated when you at least try. I had a wonderful time living in Castelo like a local and going to places not many tourists take the time to see. Venice is enchanting, the history amazing and the people are wonderful. Yep, the food is pretty darn good too. Esplorare Venezia, trova i suoi tesori nascosti. Innamorarsi del suo fascino 💖

[@TravelAddictsLife]

Grazie e mille for the feedback! 😍

[@AZTUC_520]

I agree with most of what you said except for one thing. Venice has little to no benches, so that forces people to sit on steps and other areas. If the city doesn't like people doing that then they should invest in some benches. Other than that, Venice is one of my favorite cities to visit.

[@TravelAddictsLife]

Thank you for the feedback 🙏

[@wimhance6541]

True. We're paying that tourist tax for something, where does it go?

[@margueriteperry9302]

I have always found Italians lovely, helpful, and VERY courteous. I work at being respectful, and over the years have learned to get along in Italian, but even when I only knew Grazie and Buongiorno, they never failed to reciprocate. I usually rent an apartment, and I often receive little welcome gifts from the owners, and in turn I leave then a thank you gift. As for the Venetians or Veneziani, I LOVE chatting with them and getting to know them, and find the SO FRIENDLY, even in the most tourist trodden paths, they respond very well to anyone who makes an effort to treat them with respect and not as service (I saw an American in this feed refer to them as Venusians, but they are not from Venus, and call the locales "rude." I'd be rude too with tourist who did not know where they were or could not be bothered to learn). Fare una bella figura and sempre cortesia.

[@alexnexus8345]

Kind and Respectful, you will always be welcome!

[@MichelleISR]

Not sure. My experience was horrible in Venice: got shouted at very rudely twice. I am very polite and always greet in local language entering & leaving the establishment. I was refused to be served at a Bar/deli and fruit shop because I didn’t speak Italian. Not only refused but shouted at. After Venice, I travelled to Paris and despite not speaking French my polite Bonjour and smile was reciprocated by warm welcomes everywhere. I am traveling again to Venice for the art Biennale this year, hope it’s a different experience.

I agree on all your points with the caveat that sometimes you need a big bag -- like if you're staying in Venice for two full weeks during Carnevale and have costumes with you as well! 😆But to your point, if you need a big bag, take a private water taxi to/from the airport or train station right to your hotel. It's expensive, but you can't walk through the city dragging a big roller bag on those stones and through those crowds.

[@TravelAddictsLife]

My first visit to Venice was part of one of my first international trips. I had not yet learned to pack light, and somewhere i got the idea I should pack all that stuff in more small bags rather than fewer large ones. As a result, my partner and I ended up with FIVE bags total. My partner was disabled and unable to carry any, so it was left to me to lug them all from the vaparetto stop, over countless cobblestones, and over several bridges, to our hotel (and back at the end of the stay). Needless to say, I learned my lesson, and Venice was a very good teacher. Guys, thanks for another good and helpful video. I'm returning to Venice in October (with one suitcase). Lucky me!

I'm in Venice at the moment, if you need to drop your bags at your Airbnb, then by all means do it. Many people still do and so did I. I visited St, Marcos Vasilicca yesterday and went to Doge's palace today, the experience was awesome. Every morning we have gone to Dolce Vita for awesome pastries for breakfast. We started our travels landing in Rome immediately went to Venice. Here's some advise, invest in a butt pillow for the loooong plain ride and for any long train rides. Get a European sim card and bring your European wall outlet and or adapters.

Do you have to book to see the glass blowing?

[@TravelAddictsLife]

No you don’t usually it is pretty easy to get in

Thank you for the tips! We are going in 8 days. Is there a way to do a gondola ride without having to pay the crazy price of 80 - 100 euro?

[@TravelAddictsLife]

You can try the gondola traghetto that costs only €2.50 it is. It as romantic but it is good for photos

We are a family of 9 adults and 2 kids, coming to Venice this coming weekend to commemorate one of us 40th birthday. Do you have any recommendation for a traditional and cosy restaurant in Venice? (not very expensive). thanks

[@TravelAddictsLife]

Last time we went to this restaurant and it was wonderful maps.app.goo.gl/KqWsPQa9C1rWetzv7?g_st=ic

[@VampiraVonGhoulscout]

Are there any traditional Venetian foods that are suitable for vegetarians? Everything I find seems to be all seafood based 😭 I don't want to miss out.

[@TravelAddictsLife]

There are a few vegetarian options for sure, for example the typical raicchio of Venice that is prepared in several ways is delicious!

[@scaryboat]

I live in Venice and the shoe thing is also important because the streets can be dirty and dusty. This is the reason that I never wear open toe shoes. Even when I go to Lido, I wear regular shoes and switch to my flip flops when we get to the beach.

[@User2754-s]

Since you live there, how many times it flooded in 2023? Did the barrier system do any good?

[@TravelAddictsLife]

@sgrouev7907 last year it did not flood very much at all

[@scaryboat]

@@User2754-s in 2023, Venice did not experience many high water incidents. I believe they only had to use the Mose one or two times. However, water in St. Mark's square is a regular occurrence so always be prepared for that.

[@sherwinnelvis8632]

Rick/Andrea, question - me and my family are visiting Venice soon. We have a 1 year old. Should we take the bus to the Santa Lucia train station or get a one of the boats from the VCE? Which one saves more time?

[@TravelAddictsLife]

We are not sure what are you asking. You want to go from Santa Lucia to where?

[@sherwinnelvis8632]

@@TravelAddictsLife We have a hotel inside Venice near St Marks Square. What would you recommend traveling with a 1 year old? Boat or Bus

[@TravelAddictsLife]

@sherwinnelvis8632 😃there are no busses from Santa Lucia to San Marco only boats but you will be fine with a kid 👍🏻

[@sherwinnelvis8632]

@@TravelAddictsLife Yes im aware. So which option is best. from Marco Polo airport? Using the Boat? or take the public bus to Santa lucia from the airport?

[@TravelAddictsLife]

@@sherwinnelvis8632 From the airport probably the boat is better because you can go to Piazza San Marco with no changes.

May I ask skip the line tickets you mean in the video are tickets we need to buy online in advance on any sites instead of buying at the ticket office? Or even with the online ticket you still have to buy skip the line ticket to have entrance priority?

[@TravelAddictsLife]

The skip the line tickets give you priority entrance, you can buy then using the link we have left in the description or using any other operator that offer that service.

[@funvalentinapace1474]

Hi, love your channel! Just wanted to ask your thoughts on which to visit in Venice, the doges palace or St Mark's Church? The skip the line tickets for both are too much for a family of 5. Visiting from Sydney in April 2024. 🎉

[@TravelAddictsLife]

The Doge Palace is definitely our pick. One thing you can do is to go to St. Mark's very early when they just open and wait in line maybe it won't be too busy. Then after the Church go the Doge Palace with the skip the line

[@funvalentinapace1474]

Thank u ❤

[@marionhaydon6579]

We will be spending 5 nights (4 full days) in winter. Any suggestions😊

[@marionhaydon6579]

I know you’ve already given me some good ideas.

[@TravelAddictsLife]

If you are spending 4 full days in Venice you will have a lot of time to see everything without rushing. You will also have time to visit some of the surrounding areas like Treviso where they make prosecco and do a prosecco tour: readysetitaly.com/prosecco/ or do a river boat tour to the stunning city of Padova: readysetitaly.com/padova/ let us know how you like it.

[@BrandonGreenlee-ou6gj]

Are there any good passes for Venice that allow you to skip the line or should I buy individual tickets.

[@TravelAddictsLife]

Hello there, you can buy the Venezia Unica city pass but that doesn't have a skip the line privilege just the entry fee.
