Built on more than 100 islands, Venice is famed for its network of dusky-blue canals, lined with elaborate architecture and criss-crossed by beautiful stone bridges. And this day trip from Istria to Venice sees you crossing the Adriatic Sea by boat for a guided tour and free time in this romantic Italian city.
You'll arrive in style into San Basilio pier, right in the heart of Venice, to begin your guided tour to spot some of the city's highlights. Start off in the legendary St Mark's Square – a piazza dominated by the beautiful Byzantine basilica of St Mark and its belfry.
Maybe take a gondola ride, find as many bridges as you can and dip in and out of classic eateries – there's loads to do here. You'll make your own way to the port to leave Venice in the early evening and return to Croatia having seen one of Italy's top cities.
