Skip the crowds and head to Cannaregio, one of Venice’s quieter, more local neighborhoods. Have a cappuccino in a corner café, then visit the Jewish Ghetto. Walk along Fondamenta della Misericordia, stopping at local food spots. Hop a traghetto across the Grand Canal like locals do. Finish the day with wine and seafood near Fondamente Nove.

Hit St. Mark’s Basilica and Doge’s Palace early to beat the crowds. Hop on a vaporetto to Murano for a quick glassblowing demo, then return via the Grand Canal. Walk across Rialto Bridge, grab lunch at a canal-view restaurant, and explore hidden alleys. End with a gondola ride or relax with wine in San Polo.
