Follow the main drag to Campo San Polo and Basilica dei Frari, with two important works by Titian, then see more than 60 Tintoretto works at Scuola Grande di San Rocco.

Mon Nov 14 6:00am - Mon Nov 14 12:00pm
Notes
Greet Venice with a morning cruise along the Grand Canal from Ferrovia to San Zaccaria. You'll treasure seeing Piazza San Marco for the first time from the water, as centuries of travelers have done before you. Visit the Basilica, Palazzo Ducale, and Museo Correr, and allow time to enjoy the view from atop the Campanile. Meander out Salizada San Moisè, shopping and lunching along the way. Take the traghetto in Campo Santa Maria del Giglio or cross the Grand Canal via Accademia Bridge. Bear left to reach Santa Maria della Salute, with over a dozen Titian paintings, and Punta della Dogana, one of the best panoramas in town.

Top off your afternoon with Peggy Guggenheim's 20th-century collection, or let centuries of Venetian art at Gallerie dell'Accademia show you how this city has changed through the ages. Stretch your legs at sunset with a walk along the Zattere, accompanied by a gelato.
