Why this trip

No cars, no wheels: in Venice every step counts. The lagoon city of 118 islands can only be explored on foot or on the water, and that adds up to a surprising number of kilometres. From the Rialto Bridge past the Basilica di San Marco to the Doge's Palace runs a route that demands stamina and a sense of direction. Luggage is hard work to carry over bridges, so travelling light counts more here than elsewhere.

If you seek distance from the bustle, take the boat to Burano or Murano and walk through calmer lanes there. The St Mark's Square round works best early, before the visitors arrive. Steps and bridges are numerous, which applies to luggage and knees. April to June and September to October are the months with mild weather for long city stages.

With about 1 to 1.5 hours of flight time the city is a good opener or a finale. Cortina d'Ampezzo, Bologna, Val Gardena and Madonna di Campiglio lie close as neighbours, so that Venice can be combined with a Dolomites tour. Your experience determines how far the route per day may be, which you clarify in the video call.
