Venice · MORNING
Every Venice trip has one free morning too few. These 15 morning tours justify the slot, priced and timed so you can decide in minutes and get back to the fun part of planning.
Venice morning walking tour through calli and squares with headsets, outside-only sights, and stories of doges, St Mark’s, and Mercerie.
“Nice guide, fun tour to walk around town and be led by somebody who knows their way round”
Morning cruise in Venice Lagoon to Murano and Burano for glass and lace demos, scenic boat views, and quick island exploring in 4 hours.
“Great boat experience. Murano had a murano glass making demonstration then had a few minutes to walk on the pier. Burano was so pretty. We had 1 hour to explore on our own. Had lunch at probably the best place in italy.”
St. Mark’s Basilica with guided mosaics, terrace views, and a classic shared gondola ride later that day, skip-the-line included.
Morning walk through Venice’s canals and squares, then a gondola ride for views of the Grand Canal and side waterways.
“Monica was a very knowledgeable and engaging guide for this walking tour of Venice. She provided a lot of history and her perspective as we walked the backstreets and piazza's of Venice that many people do not ever experience. I would definitely recommend this walking tour to anyone wanting to experience Venice. The gondola ride was done separately from the walk, so we had a different guide to get us to the gondolas. The gondola ride not only took us through the small canals, but also onto the Grand Canal and back to our starting point. You truly appreciate the skill of the gondoliers while they navigate the narrow canals…”
A 2-hour English walking tour plus mini-cruise through Venice’s key sights, ending near Santa Lucia, with a gondola option for 2€ extra.
“Excellent tour that we would highly recommend! Our tour guide (Martha) was very knowledgeable of the city and history. We visited the major sites and transversed the Grand Canal in a gondola. We would take the tour again! Our guide was fluent in multiple languages.”
Morning Venice walking tour plus a guided Doge’s Palace visit with Bridge of Sighs, local history stops, and included admission.
“Nous avons été un peu déçus de l organisation des visites, nous sommes arrivés le samedi matin, l agent sur place n était au courant que d une visite sur les deux commandées... impossible de joindre Viator par téléphone... on nous a dit de faire la 1ère visite et qu on verrait après si on pouvait faire la 2nde.... donc 1ère visite faite un peu énervés, tendus, et stressés... finalement nous avons pu faire la deuxième visite (heureusement) donc une solution a été trouvée”
4-hour private Venice sunrise photo tour with a pro photographer, coffee, and smart route choices for light, detail, and story-worthy shots.
“Marco not only helped us take great photos, but he showed us Venice from the local view point. Highly recommend this tour whether you are an experienced or novice photographer. You will take better pictures and learn how to use your camera like never before.”
Early Venice walking tour with a local guide. See Scala Contarini del Bovolo, Rialto, Grand Canal, and end by Punta della Dogana.
“So great to explore Venice before the crowds show up. We saw many beautiful and interesting sights and learned a lot about Venice. I don’t think it would be a good tour for someone with young kids, but teens or older or no kids - absolutely!”
1-hour Venice sunrise run from Rialto Bridge to Dorsoduro with a small group, guide, water, and photo stops.
“It was really nice! Got to see many places and hear interesting stories. The speed was just right. Thanks Denis! 🤗”
Sunrise walk in Venice with espresso. Quiet streets, photo stops at St Mark’s and Rialto, and a local guide’s smart pointers.
“Fabulous experience! Elisabetta was the perfect guide. So knowledgeable about Venice and flexible to take us to see things we were interested in. Native to Venice with excellent English. And great to be up before the crowds! We got some wonderful pictures without other tourists. Highly recommend!!”
Morning boat trip from Venice to Murano and Burano, with a Murano glass demo, free time on both islands, and scenic terrace views.
“The trip is good. Lasting roughly 4 hours, it’s a good excursion if you only have limited time in Venice. The tour guide lady is fantastic and funny. I would definitely recommend this trip in Spring when it’s warmer and not too hot. I did it on a Sunny but (very) cold winter day, so not good for roaming around. But aside from that, highly recommend!”
Private early-morning Venice walk from Rialto to near-empty San Marco, Bridge of Sighs, and Rialto market setup, in English.
“Nadia greeted us with open arms and gave us such a wonderful experience in Venice! First class tour!!”
Venice Sunrise 1 hour run from Rialto Bridge at 7:30, English guide, San Marco dawn photos, small group, $42.
“This is a great tour for anyone looking for a morning run and to learn about Venice. Denis is knowledgeable, answers questions and shares interesting insights. Highly recommend it as a different way to see Venice.”
Morning St. Mark’s skip-the-line visit plus a shared gondola later the same day, with a guided basilica tour and a romantic canal glide.
“A little bit disorganize at the beginning. but overall good. The guide excellent and very informative. Very good experience”
A sunrise couples photoshoot in Venice with pro guidance, scenic quiet streets, and 70 edited HD photos delivered for sharing.
“Carlo and Lisa were amazing! They made the experience fun and relaxing and delivered our photos the next day. I can't recommend them enough!”
