    What It Is

    • The island that we know today as the Venice, the artistic and romantic capital of Italy, is a city best explored by water. Once a cluster of 118 tiny islands, the very first settlers made all their journeys by small boats and Gondole. Today the city remains inaccessible to cars and bicycles, so instead of a traditional open-top red bus, you'll be hopping on and off of a big red boat.
    • This is a comfortable compromise between pricy water taxis and Venice's overcrowded Vaporetto (public boat/bus). Boats run every hour and there's plenty of seats on board for you and your companions.
    • This is a great option for anyone travelling with children or those who aren't keen to navigate Venice's labyrinth of streets and 400 bridges. The Hop-On Hop-Off boat stops within a short distance of all of the city's main attractions.
    • Board and disembark the boat at any of the marked Hop-On Hop-Off stops to explore the city or stay onboard to make a loop of the Grand Canal, this pass gives you full flexibility.
