Venice with children Travel Guide — Things to Do, Food & Hotels

About Venice with children

For young children, walking across the city may be a job that is a bit too hard for them, so always be prepared to take an impromptu water taxi. Also if you get a hotel map ask the concierge to note down the water taxi stands. Venice is a huge city and also very easy to get lost in. So the easiest situation with kids is make your way to the Grand Canal and/or retrace your steps. Water taxis are a convenient but expensive option: they start at a fixed rate of €15 plus €2 per minute, with additional fees for transport at night, additional people, and luggage—rides in the city center can easily exceed €50. If you might need to take one, make sure to keep some money with you. A more economical option is the vaporetti (water buses), which are free for children under age 6 on urban routes. Kids
