Things to do in Venice, Veneto: The Best Multi-day Tours

July 5, 2021 Agatha Simes

With its gondolas, canals, amazing restaurants, and unforgettable romantic ambiance, Venice is definitely a city for one's bucket list. Waterfront palazzos, palaces, and churches make drifting down the Grand Canal feel like cruising through a painting. To really experience Venice you must go to the opera or to a classical music performance, nibble fresh pasta and pastries, and linger in the exhibit halls of an art gallery. Label lovers will drool over the high-end shopping in Piazza San Marco.

My wife and really enjoyed our trip to Iceland—and we GREATLY appreciate the incredible amount of effort that went into planning our trip. We are both vaccinated, but didn't know what to expect. Traveling itself was easier then we imagined. Firebird team helped us arrange PCR tests for arrival/departure, and shared all requirements that Iceland has for indoor outdoor mask requirements. Basically you need to wear mask inside in all public places, and should be wearing it outside, but most people usually don't have it on. Our guide and drivers always were wearing mask and had extra masks and cleaning solutions with them at all times, which we appreciate. We plan to use Firebird again in the near future. Thank you very much for everthing!

We had a really good tour around The Vatican including all the museums. Our guide Rita gave us a very interesting and informative tour. It was at times very difficult having a face mask on all the time but she was able to give us the best tour even with a mask. Thank you very much, Rita Eskild og Susanne

I have been to Venice before but wanted to show my wife the most of Venice in 3 days before we departed for our cruise. We had a limited time visiting Venice and decided on this tour rather than exploring on our own for the sake of time. This was a wonderful tour and highlighted the best of Venice. We really enjoyed the narration of the city and it's history. The boat ride was probably the highlight of the tour. It showed us many areas that tourist don't usually go to and we saw absolutely beautiful cathedrals and private homes. This tour was a no brainier and would recommended it to everyone.

The hot tip for us on this day was letting MCM do the driving and pick the itinerary. We took some back roads that we never would have found past farms with amazing alpine views and learned a lot about local life and the area. We were able to tailor the trip to our interests and could have done some guided hiking - another option the company offers that we would do next time. Awesome lunch on a terrace with a view and fun off the beaten path trip!
