Venice is the perfect city to spend time with the love of your life and so is an ideal destination for a honeymoon. If you want a quieter break then it is good to plan your honeymoon for the autumn as there are less tourists around and the canals are empty as during the summer months Venice can become busy.

A gondola ride is probably the activity most associated with Venice and there are fewer things more romantic than a leisurely gondola ride through the historic city. A moonlit gondola ride is also on offer if you want to experience this.

For couples that are interested in art and culture there are an amazing number of examples of fine architecture and sculpture in Venice. A visit to the famous St Mark’s Basilica which has features from many architectural styles is a must. There you will be able to see the tomb of St Mark and learn about his life in the onsite museum.

Once the sightseeing is complete for the day why not sit and relax at one of the many cafes the city has to offer and plan your activities for the following day whilst enjoying a delicious coffee and a slice of homemade cake.
