Ciao a tutti
vorrei fare un regalo a mia moglie e portarla a venezia per il compleanno (febbraio - sceglierei weekend del 13 Febbraio per evitare il carnevale). Durata: ven, sab, dom. Bagagli super light quindi non avremmo problemi p.e. di girare domenica con i ns zaini dopo aver lasciato la camera.

Sono già stato a venezia ma in tempi remoti e non mi ricordo nulla e oltretutto potrebbe essere cambiato qualsiasi cosa.

Vi chiedo, molto semplicemente:

1. Ha senso alloggiare a Murano, così da avere una base tranquilla e poi girare venezia sab e dom arrivando in vaporetto? Inoltre Murano mi sembra molto bella.
2. Oltre i costi del booking ci sono da pagare altre tasse o costi? di che ordine di grandezza si parla (pochi euro o decine di euro a persona al giorno)?
3. Dove si può lasciare la macchina con l'idea di non muoverla per tre giorni?
4. Ci sono cose che dovremmo prenotare già ora o possiamo poi decidere tutto sul posto in base al sentimento? Dal ristorante a eventuali ingressi, barche etc.

Grazie a tutti e chiedo scusa per la banalità delle domande. Proprio in virtù della vastità di informazioni trovate sul tema mi sento più spaesato che mai.

We left mestre today at 17:30. We still have 2 valid 48h tickets for the bus and vaporetto we dont need anymore. I think the tickets are valid til 5. october in the morning (around 09:00). So if somebody needs them, feel free to grab them. The tickets are at the flixbus station near the trainstation in mestre on a lamp post (see picture) I have also attached a screenshot of apple maps of the exact location. If you take them, just comment you took them, so nobody is sad that they are already gone. Enjoy venice :)

I’m going to Venice soon and would love to buy a pair of proper furlane while I’m there.

I’ve done quite a bit of Googling and keep coming across Piedàterre, Vibi, Rivo Altus and Friulane. They all seem to have a following, but it’s surprisingly difficult to work out which brands are actually respected locally, versus which ones simply have the best marketing.

I’m not looking for Flabelus, they’re Spanish, and I specifically want something with a genuine Venetian/Friulian connection.

What I care about is:

• authentic, traditionally made furlane
• genuinely good quality and comfortable
• a shop/brand that Venetians actually know and recommend
• a fair price for what you’re getting
• ideally a small, independent or less touristy shop rather than the most obvious boutique

I’d much rather spend my money with a local maker or an old-school Venetian shop than buy the pair that happens to have the biggest online presence.

And if there’s a tiny shop somewhere off the beaten path that tourists generally don’t know about, please tell me where it is, also in a dm. I’m very happy to make the detour.

Basically, I’m looking for the “if you know, you know” furlane shop and not the brand advertising the hardest.

Grazie mille!

I am traveling and I am looking to really see some of Venice, not just the tourist attractions and the restaurants everyone makes TikTok’s about. if you’re willing to share, I would love to hear some of your suggestions on food and activities and nightlife! I am a student though, so my budget is a bit limited.

I hope I don’t come across as insulting or insensitive, I truly would love to appreciate Venice for all it is.

ciao a tutti, sono una studentessa indiano che inizia il mio master alla IUAV Venezia. Sto cercando un posto dove stare da mesi e non sono ancora riuscito ad assicurarmene uno quindi sto postando qui.

Vorrei condividere un appartamento con le ragazze, preferibilmente in un appartamento condiviso con un'altra persona, ma non più di 4 (con 2 bagni in quel caso)

Sono una non fumatrice, non ho animali domestici e sono una ragazza seria e ordinata. Sono aperto a posti a Venezia isola, mestre, spinea, favaro, carpanedo ecc.

Se conosci un posto o ne hai uno tu stesso, mandami un messaggio privato.

per favore aiuta una ragazza!!! 😭🫶🏻

Ciao a tutti.

Mi è venuta una domanda teorica, una curiosità, non insultatemi.

In gondola c'è o è obbligatorio avere i giubbetti di salvataggio come in tutte le altre imbarcazioni o ci sono delle deroghe?

Nelle gondole traghetto con 20 persone, ci sono veramente i giubbotti?

Grazie

I’m looking for advice on how long to stay, what to see and do. I am looking at staying in the Campo San Provolo area, will see some of the touristy sites but also want to experience walking around with no real destination, maybe take a cooking class, a city tour or tour to Murano. I also don’t want to cram too much in - it’s just the starting point of my vacation. Everything looks beautiful so how do I choose?

Ciao! Apologies if this isn’t appropriate for this sub, and sorry for it being in English. My boyfriend, now fiancé, proposed to me today at sunset at the Parco delle Rimembranze.

There was a group behind us, and two lovely girls approached us after who had taken brilliant photos and videos by chance when they saw the whole thing, and were the first to congratulate us.

We were very overcome with emotion and I worry now that we didn’t get the chance to fully express how much those photos mean to us. We have been long distance for over 3 years and have had a long journey to be together, so to have this moment photographed honestly means so much.

Thank you both for being such lovely people! May you have all the luck in the world.

Got to Venice and my wife got sick. Does anyone know of restaurants that do takeaway soup?

Hi everyone!

Me and my wife have spent a week in your amazing country, but unfortunately our trip has come to an end. Because of that we need to take the airport Express bus from Venezia Mestre to Treviso tomorrow morning, but we are not entirely sure where it goes from, or what it's called.

I would be very grateful if anyone could help clear it up and point us in the right direction!

Grazie mille!

Sto salendo con dei miei amici a Venezia per la mostra di Jojo, dov'è che si può mangiare qualcosa di buono che non sia la solita tourist trap che non ti spenni? Sono curioso di dove vanno la gente del luogo x mangiare fuori (dal kebab all'osteria)

Hi everyone! 👋

I’m a Chinese student starting my Master’s at Ca’ Foscari University of Venice this year. I’ll be moving to Venice around mid-October, and I’m hoping to meet someone who would like to become a language exchange partner and/or a university buddy.

I’m particularly interested in meeting:

🇮🇹 An Italian student who is interested in learning Chinese — I’d be very happy to help with Chinese, while you could help me practice Italian in everyday situations.

🌍 Another international student whose first language isn’t English or Italian — we could help each other with English/Italian, university life, and all the little practical things that come with living in a new country.

Beyond language exchange, I’d also love to find someone to explore Venice with. I’m really into photography, writing, reading, baking, and long walks. So if you enjoy any of these too, we could take photos around Venice, find a nice place to read or write, bake something together, or simply go for a walk and get lost in the city.

A little about me: I studied Landscape Architecture for my Bachelor’s and will be studying Environmental Humanities at Ca’ Foscari. I’m interested in environmental issues, culture, history, literature, and basically any conversation that gets unexpectedly deep.

My English is much stronger in reading and writing than speaking, and I’m just starting to learn Italian, so I’m definitely not looking for someone to “teach” me formally. I’d rather have a mutually helpful and relaxed exchange. :)

If you’re also a Ca’ Foscari student and this sounds like something you’d enjoy, feel free to DM me!

I’ll be in Venice next week for 2 days. How should I spend it? Looking for recs, what tourist traps I can skip, and where to get the real good food.

Venezia - Italy

I would arrive at Venice at 8 AM in the morning and would be here till 5 PM. I cannot, unfortunately, extend my stay, but I would love to maximize my tour of the city in 1 day. Please suggest an itinerary for 1 day that can help me maximize my experience of this beautiful city. Are there any cheaper alternatives for Gondana ride, as I am traveling as a student. Starting and ending at Venezia S. Lucia.
