April is the perfect time to visit Venice if you’re looking for somewhere packed with culture, blessed with charming weather, and free from dense crowds.
There are so many reasons that spring in Venice is an amazing time for a gondola ride. Because the city is pretty quiet at this time of year, gondoliers are often happy to make deals and it’s very unlikely you’ll have to ride with anyone else.

Here you’ll find tranquil canals lined by stunning candy-colored cottages. Make sure you seek out Casa di Bepi Suà. It’s a spectacular red and blue house decorated with bold, geometric shapes. You really can’t miss it!

Here you’ll find a simple terrace with fabulous views that stretch across the Rialto Bridge, the Grand Canal, and all the way out to sea.
