Local guide
About Rialto
Rialto is right in the middle of Venice’s other main districts – it doesn't really get more central than this. It’s a favourite with tourists, particularly as its less hectic than San Marco (this is all relative though – everywhere in Venice is packed). It’s intersected by many small intertwining canals, which make for good views and plenty of opportunity for gondola rides, if that's your cup of tea. Perhaps...
Explore the area
Local restaurants, cafes, museums, sites and activities, recommended by our community of hosts and travel experts
Visit the Basilica dei Frari
Drink in the atmosphere of one of the most important churches in Venice, where the master painter Titian is buried.
Sip on a Spritz at Bacareto da Lele
Bacareto da Lele is a typical Venice bar with a relaxed vibe where you can join locals from the university enjoying a snack and a drink.
Explore Scuola Grande di San Rocco
The 'scuolas' of Venice were cultural associations, and San Rocco was once the richest one. The opulent insides include frescoes by Tintoretto and more.
Eat fish at Acqua e Mais
Alvise, the owner, had the brilliant idea of offering "scraps" overflowing with fried squid, mixed fry, octopus salad, rice with shrimp. The rest is history.
Eat traditional at Osteria la Zucca
Vegetarian food in Venice isn't usually much to write home about, but this place is the best of the bunch (even its name means pumpkin).
Dinosaurs at the Museo di Storia Naturale
While this is a fairly standard natural history museum, it's a great for children, and the dinosaur fossils are undeniably impressive.
Admire the collection of Ca' Pesaro
This modern art gallery houses 10 rooms and multiple works by Rodin, Kandinskji and De Chirico, to name but a few.
Enjoy traditional cicchetti and wine at Cantina Do Spade
A cosy, wood-panelled bar serving delicious light bites, pastas and a variety of wines by the glass. Friendly staff and a lively atmosphere make it a great spot for tourists and locals alike.
Enjoy Live Jazz and Delicious Pizza at Novecento Jazz Club 900
Indulge in arguably the best Venetian pizza while soaking in the old-world vibe of this rustic dining room. With occasional live jazz, it's a hidden gem away from the tourist traps.
Relax in Giardini Papadopoli
Escape the hustle and bustle of the city at this tranquil park. With plenty of shade, benches, and a canal view, it's the perfect spot to unwind.
