Family holidays in Venedig

Family trips with short distances and plenty of safety.

Venedig in Italien is a destination that Family plans for families, focusing on children, safety and short distances. Behind it stands Swiss Vibes, a Swiss travel agency with video consultation, which puts together family trips with short distances. The planner asks about family and period, and on the video call Swiss Vibes clarifies the details.

Why this trip

A city without cars, where children stand on bridges and count boats: Venice fascinates the little ones in a way parents often underestimate. The lagoon city of 118 islands is most pleasant from April to June as well as in September and October, when the lanes are less crowded and the days not too hot. Safety demands attention here, because canals rarely have railings. Parents of toddlers therefore keep the children by the hand.

On St Mark's Square the children can watch pigeons, and St Mark's Basilica impresses with gold, while the Doge's Palace tells stories of rulers and prisons. An excursion to Burano with its colourful houses and to Murano with its glassblowers pleases school-age children, because they can watch the craft. The Rialto Bridge is suitable for a photo. The flight time is 1 to 1.5 hours, and Swiss travellers need no visa.

Six properties are available. If you want to add mountains, you will find in Val Gardena a valley in the neighbourhood. How many hours in the lanes are good for your children is something you decide in the video call.
