A city built across over a hundred small islands linked by arched bridges and meandering canals, Venice is one of the world’s best-known romantic travel destinations. Sip espresso at a quiet waterfront cafe, float through picturesque canals, barter at charming Italian street markets and bask in culture galore…Venice is the romantic home of Casanova, and couples who choose this classic honeymoon destination will see that Casanova was just the beginning.
Venice is a hot destination for international tourists, so we recommend taking your trip in the off season to avoid the crowds, if possible.

When you’re in a city this romantic, you’ll want it all to yourselves!
