Everything You Need to See in Venice, Italy

24 Hours in Venice with so much to see and do. Where to start? Since Alessio's hometown is only about an hour north of Venice, he claims this enchanting Italian city as home. We've been lucky enough to visit several times, but this time, we wanted to explore more of the hidden gems, local restaurants and unexpected corners that are more difficult to find. Some of the locations you'll see: Libreria Acqua Alta, Calle Varisco, Scala Contarini del Bovolo, Palazzo Tetta, a hidden/private canal dock, and the best place to eat the famous Venetian cicchetti. Hope you enjoy this cozy travel vlog!

Thanks for this video. I met my husband in 2002 on a plane to Italy. Overnight flight which we stayed up all night talking from across the aisle. We stayed together the entire ten days of my trip and for all these years after. It was great to watch this together and see where our love was planted

[@dzanier]

That is truly beautiful.

[@paulgomez3318]

Dang, what a love story

[@sophiadangelo2884]

This made me tear up 🥲 that’s lovely

Watch the old movie, Summertime. It was released in 1955. It was filmed in Venice. Stars Katherine Hepburn and Rosanno Brazzi. It was so wonderful.

[@SupremeLeaderKimJong-un]

The island you saw at 9:06 is San Giorgio Maggiore! Its church was built between 1566 and 1610. The canals and the gondolas look so romantic! Gondoliers have to go through rigorous training to get a license, which there are only around 400 available! The gondola's presumed predecessor was the scaula, a slim Roman boat with a flat bottom. Though it had a much broader, more symmetrical build than today’s gondola, it had the advantage of masterfully navigating through the vast meandering canal network. As Venice became an important city of world trade in the 16th century and its population subsequently exploded, the scaula became less suited to traveling through Venice’s crowded canals and lagoons, and little by little, the boat’s design began to evolve. The shape of the boat became dramatically longer and narrower, with its extremities partially jutting out of the water. By the 1800s, the gondola had been stretched to its current condition, the typical Venetian gondola now stretches about 36 feet long! Until the early 20th century, a gondola was often fitted with a “felze”, a small cabin to protect the passengers from the weather or from onlookers, and whose windows could be closed with louvered shutters, the original “Venetian blinds”. After the elimination of the traditional felze, in response to tourists’ complaints that it blocked the view, there survived for some decades a kind of vestigial summer awning, known as the “tendalin”.

You two are hilarious and the cutest!! Thank you for the video. My son and I will be traveling to Venice in a couple of months and I’m trying to gather all of the info I can ahead of time to make the trip more enjoyable and seamless.

[@valenciacuttriss4259]

Are you guys still planning to move to Italy? Such a beautiful country and Venice is magical and the pace of life is worth the move.

[@amyKallensandoval3334]

The warmth of the Italian sun and sky melts the American snow,ice and below freezing weather.Yoyr Friendship to all of US warms Our hearts.❤

The Venetian gondole are so cool! Like you said, the term gondola has been around since the 11th century. It is estimated that there were eight to ten thousand gondole during the 17th and 18th century! Handmade of 280 pieces of eight kinds of wood (elm, cherry, walnut, lime, mahogany, fir, oak, and larch), a gondola takes about two months to build. They're black because of a law a doge enacted to eliminate competition between nobles for the fanciest rig. The iron prow-head of the gondola has neat symbolism! The S-shape resumes the twists of the Grand Canal, the six forward facing teeth correspond to the six districts of Venice, the tooth facing inwards represents Giudecca, the arch above the last tooth represents the Rialto Bridge, and the curved top end symbolizes the Doge’s hat. It does make a lot of sense why the Venetian streets like the one you showed at 3:05 are so narrow. I mean when you're trying to fit so many people on a group of small islands, you work with what you've got! The canals were the main traffic routes, so main entrances in old buildings were always on the canal side. Thus, they didn’t worry much about space between the buildings on land!

[@meangene8437]

I was there a year ago, I love this place. So magical, no place like this on earth

[@Ameslan1]

One of my favorite things to see on I Love Venice channel is you can see live footaage of different parts of Venice.. My favorite is the live Realto Bridge View... in the distance at night sometimes you can see lightning storm..

[@reycosep5916]

[@lindaharden-lantz1783]

I visited Venice in 2000, it is truly amazing, thank you for bringing back lovely memories. Love watching you guys.

[@kathyrapiejko6318]

Thank you guys for this tour of Venice! I visited many years ago & it's always been my dream to return. My great grandparents were from Poffabro & Udine. My great grandmother worked in Venice as a young girl. So I definitely feel I have "roots" in Venice & this beautiful area of Italy! Sending love & prayers for your "little lion". ❤🦁❤

[@sandycarpenter9126]

I went to Rome and Pisa. Never made it to Venice thank you for showing me Venice. 😊

[@iluvthewolfpack]

Omg so glad you made these videos, going to Venice and Northern Italy in the fall and was hoping for Alessio and Jessi recommendations!

[@goranivanovic7600]

You are amazing Jessi & Alessio, I love you both 😊🌹

[@kathylusardi44]

Its been almost 20 years since I visited, and fell in love with this magical city. Thank you for the highlights! To me, its the most beautiful city in the world. My grandparents came from Santa Maria del Taro, a tiny village in the Liguria hill towns. I have to get back!

[@analucita7046]

wow amazing video…love the atmosphere…The people talking in the background it reminds me of my childhood 🥰😍. Made it so peaceful.

[@scoutmcgee6385]

[@janarinquet6276]

I love Venice.

[@mammamia9472]

I'm flying to Venice next week and thank you for the video. And I invite you to Poland, to Krakow.

[@amyKallensandoval3334]

I miss Italy,I haven't been there since 1964.

[@jenniferwellman5311]

I loved Venice, went there last May. Spent time on San Marcos island. Absolutely, beautiful.♥️♥️♥️

[@simsbanshee]

This was such a great video! I didn't visit many of these places during my trip to Venice. It was nice to see more of the city that most people don't know to visit.

[@ThomasKelly-oq4uj]

Can't wait to get there after l retire.

[@jofereday7213]

We visited Venice last year, spent 5 days in this truly magical city ❤ when I first saw the Basilica it took my breath away, absolutely stunning. Will definitely visit again, amazing food, every turn there’s a surprise & delicious Aperol spritz 😊

[@empresswb641]

Wow I love this video!!! I am sorry you did not get to see the cats. We saw the cats in the colloseum. Our guide was surprised at that. But I am thinking maybe it was because it was right at closing? I really love Rome. I can't wait to come back and see more.

[@dzanier]

Siete simpaticissimi!

[@ThePasinis]

Grazie mille

[@dzanier]

@@ThePasinis prego.

[@thomdevries]

Nice video of Venice! Now I know some places for the next time ;-).

[@aprilray4332]

My husband and I are coming the first of June. Can’t wait, maybe we will see you there, Ciao

[@sharonthompson7700]

I think you two are the cutest couple on KZbin! Love your videos.❤

[@christineciccone2201]

New to your channel and I love it. Makes me smile watching your live for one another and hubbys childlike wonder at American food. I sure wish I could have married an Italian from Italy instead of little Italy nyc. Huge difference it seems 😂

[@Charlierose214]

Jessie in her purple dress reminds me of rapunzel🤍

[@thatswhatshesaid14]

I love this so much! 💚 My great great grandfather came to the United States in the 1880's from Turin. I wonder if he ever visited Venice... Have you thought about doing a "Everything to see in (insert city here)" segment? I would watch that. Also, Alessio could find the best mom and pop food place in each city he goes to. He does the best food reviews. 🤗

[@monicamillin9659]

Libreria Acqua Alta, been many times, at different times of the year, I always,, always see the cats!

[@kris_h49]

Tucci also went to the same cicchetti place for his show episode, even after multiple times in Venice, still did not get to it, but I am still keeping it on my list, since more people approve!

[@denasutera]

Love the entro music… Bella

[@bwana-ma-coo-bah425]

Whilst Venice is a nice place here are some tips that will serve you well. Don't stay on the island. Find accommodation as close to the island as you can. Walk across the bridge with no luggage for as long as you stay there, you will see more that way. Accommodation on the island does not have lifts and the stairs and bridges are plenty if you are carrying luggage. Dragging luggage through the streets will drive you crazy. What looks like some ones entrance to their house is actually a street. And the most important thing to remember is, the restaurants have 2 menus, 1 for the locals and 1 for the tourists. When you order something keep the menu and check the bill with what you ordered.

[@iluvthewolfpack]

I love how upset Jessi was about the cats 😅

[@franciscoreyes5513]

Hi, nice video quality, what camera did you use to shoot this video? Thanks!

[@lettievanhemert]

Oh no! Don’t send Jessi to pasta jail.

[@giovannifodera8807]

going tomorrow for 2 days during Carnival, will be too busy for sure but lets try our luck

[@martyneilson]

You found the picka-pocket lady! hahaha

[@daisy9910]

I'm mostly Italian, and I like pineapple on pizza. I expect Alessio would like me to surrender my Italian passport. 😂 The crostini (?) looked delicious.

[@shyofthemoon1175]

Jessi where do you get all these cute dresses?!

[@KaterinaFerrara]

I missed what month you were there? Didn’t seem crowded

[@shadyahoury]

Went to Acqua alta yesterday, can confirm no cats in winter either. Very sad indeed

[@Joekool88]

Is it weird that I am suddenly thinking of Assassin's Creed II?

[@pedropalhares9047]

im coming this week good restaurants suggetions with pasta but no seafood and pizza ??

[@user-tk2hg3mm5p]

Haven't Seen Many New Videos 😊 Did You Guys Leave The Country 😳 If Your Still In The United States Or Whenever You Come Back 😊 You Should Try The Largest Buffet In The United States 😊 It's Called .. The Shady Maple Smorgasbord .. In Lancaster Pennsylvania 😊 I Look Forward To Seeing & Hearing What You Think 😊 Tale Care 😊 Hope To See You In Lancaster Soon 😊

[@velvetjones1856]

24 hours in Venice is like trying to see all of the Smithsonian museums and National monuments in Washington DC in 24 hours. It can't be done.

[@bakerzermatt]

I live in southern Switzerland, not far from Italy (on the other side of the Sempione and Gran San Bernardo). I often go to Italy, but I've never been to Venice. I'm just worried about it being too full of tourists during the summer.

[@erminiatirelli4981]

Sono Italiana di Brescia. Ti consiglio di andare all'inizio della primavera o in autunno. Ci sono sempre turisti ma meno che in estate.

[@L-ff5kw]

Can Venice be seen in 1 day? + that pizza looks amazing

[@ThePasinis]

yes you can see in 1day but if you wanna go to Murano you need 1 extra day

[@laceandribbonsviolin]

As an American I DO wake up to the National Anthem playing in the background😂

[@gracetheviolinista]

Does anyone know what happened to all their fun old shorts? Like her breaking the pasta in half and throwing the spaghetti on the wall to see if it’s done? I miss those

[@bernarrcoletta7419]

I can't believe how few people there are. Usually it seems to be filled to the brim with tourists.

[@annieis300]

💚🤍❤

[@AzulBlueQueen1944]

I cried this entire video. I will never make it there. Even if I did make it there I would be alone and have no one to house me or cook for me. Sad.

[@matteobiasi6299]

Im Venetian, no living in Venice but in a nearly city..i'll take you there if you come in Italy 😊❤

[@primrose4514]

I have the same problem, I once loved 2 wonderful, gorgeous men, but both died. I hope so much, god will send me another loving person to live a beautiful life in future ❤

[@bethmurphy2970]

Pizza in Venice is for tourists

[@aragmarverilian8238]

I could guess that your first stop would be food... because how could there be a second stop without nourishment?!

[@michaelgriffin1179]

If you could choose one place to eat in Venice, what would it be ?

[@annieterminetschuppon7232]

Can we find acceptable Airbnb in Venice or burano

[@ThePasinis]

yes you can but you need to book super early

[@ThomasKelly-oq4uj]

My wife is from scil

[@ellasaenz9653]

First position would work to save your lives.

[@sheilaj5818]

lease let us know how you areJessi.

[@veronicaivanova]

Love your videos, but definitely prefer when you talk rather than write throughout the video.

[@andunicorns8679]

Why does this say one day ago it was loaded and 11 minutes ago it loaded again!

[@MsSmartmonkeee]

Pineapple on pizza is an abomination!!! No Hawaiian eats that here in the Islands! Aloha from Hawai'i!

[@AzulBlueQueen1944]

When you are kissing under the moon I notice she is Not wearing a wedding ring....?

[@anniesparno502]

Hot dog pizza? Omg…yeah no…that is WAY WORSE than pineapple pizza….just saying…hotdogs are one of the worst processed foods ever…at least pineapple has health benefits and is not a processed product…YIKES!!!

[@leebrandt2631]

Italy, it's time to let the pineapple pizza joke go. Or else South America will claim their chili peppers, tomatoes, potatoes, zucchini, and chocolate back.😅
