The water is very cold. Tuscany has some of the absolute best hot springs I’ve been to, but I can tell you, regrettably, that these aren’t one of them. I found the general cleanliness of the pools to be quite lacking, and the water temperature is the lowest of the 10+ hot springs I’ve been to in Tuscany. This is a real shame because this place could be much better. It’s got the potential to be n1, but has a long way to get there. Without doing much research, the owners should simply see what the competition has to offer to improve Terme di Saturnia. Some general things the staff should provide: - indication that there are only outdoor pools - soap, shampoo and conditioner should be provided in the shower rooms - towels for showering (they’ll give you one for the sun loungers, a robe for walking outside, but what are customers supposed to use to shower? you can’t ask people to buy 3 separate towels). - food selection: very poor, almost non existent vegetarian and gluten free options at the café near the pools - tea, water or infusions should be provided for free (see competitors) Only positive is the price (€14 if you are a resident is rather competitive). But as they say… you get what you pay.

We visited the day spa in mid April. We were so much looking forward to it but got so disappointed. The whole facility is cold. The thermal pool is not warm enough when it’s 15 outside, the sauna is only 50C and the indoor space is cold. The food in the bistro must be the opposite of Tuscan gourmet, it was actually disgusting, like a bad school cantine, over cooked pasta and no taste. And you had to eat in your wet bathrobe in the cold. The place is very worn down and mold in the showers. In the men’s shower the light wasn’t working, it was dark and slippery, almost like a scene from a scary movie. The owners should visit the blue lagoon on Iceland, Vabali in Germany or Yasuragi in Stockholm to learn what a spa should be. Go to the free outdoor one instead.

They lie to people about what their access covers. I only wanted to see the cascate di Saturnia but they claimed their admission covered access to this. 26€ wasted, time wasted. Then they take zero accountability for it. Claim they will refund me but don't. Their so called director Maria Vittoria is an unethical liar

My husband and I were disappointed with our experience here. The website is a false representation & shows it to be upmarket and much nicer but in reality the pools didn’t feel well maintained & some were very dirty. Way over priced for the experience. We were in the sauna & were told to leave due to a “ritual” that you had to pay to attend. Why is this not included in the high price? Very strange. The free public baths 5 minutes away are much nicer!! For some reason the photo of the free ones are used here and it’s incorrect.

We have booked the entrance with sunbeds online and upon arrival the staff told us they don’t have the availability for sunbeds. Very disappointing. The bistrot is just a bar with only piadine and sandwiches to eat (dry and poor), the Greek yogurt was good though. The white dress code is not that obvious, because it’s seems more like a suggestion. If you want the people to wear only the WHITE outfit here — include it in the price and there will be no questions asked. Or make a warning on the website that is visible, I don’t have to search the whole website to find this rule. The whole atmosphere in the place was rude and angry. I’ve expected a nice and relaxed day, I got angry people and no sunbeds🔥👍🏼 To be fare I must say that we were offered a free cup of mud (face mask). Also it’s confusing the pictures on the website. It seems there are the natural pools, but it’s actually another location. It was not necessary to come here at all. The pools that are advertised everywhere are free of charge and are located nearby. The place is understaffed and the queue in bistrot was endless.

It was the worst experience ever. We left the place as soon as we entered. All old stuff. Small spaces very old and worn out towels, small and limited showers which weren’t clean with just a soap! There were worms also in the water! Also the staff were rude. We traveled 2 hours to get there but it was terrible. Never again!

### WARNING ### Today I arrived at 10:30 for a day pass to the pools. Before driving 120kms I looked up the tariffs for entrance and rental of towels and gown as well as 2 sunbeds. The advertised price in the latest pdf. Says midweek €29 entrance. I was charged €39, when I questioned this I was told that they have decided that till the 4th of May every day is considered weekend. This is not posted either on the website or on the premises that I have seen. As I had traveled so far I decided to enter anyway. But I find this appauling. I have stayed at the hotel previously but this has really put me off as it is clearly untoward.

Amazing place, worth visiting. Also, visit the Castelnuovo above the abbey and walk the streets. One of the most beautiful places around.

I love the georgian live music. Beautiful place very simple, quite and peaceful.

Historic church. Great 5 mile hike loop. Take coins for parking (2 euros per hour). With Casisano winery along the way. Definitely stop in if they are available for a tasting.

Lovely quiet area and nice olive trees but the whole visit was a disappointment because of the lady in the shop. She was very unpolite and as soon as I stepped inside the small shop she told me the shop will close in 2 minutes. It was 17.54. 🙄 I thought the whole place was open until 18.30. The abbey had a mass so we didn’t enter into it. The smell that came from that small shop was so good so it was a pity that I couldn’t buy anything.

Definitely the most beautiful abbey in Italy! We've come here for at least 20 years. In the beginning there were almost no tourists. Now the way down is paved, paid parking and there even is a shop at the top of the hill..... But still it's the most beautiful abbey of Italy :-) Try to stay for a service when you're here.

Truly beautiful Abbey. The electronic self guide is 7€ but we’ll worth the money. The view from the to of the Abbey is amazing. The shop is lovely too. We’ll worth an hour or two of your time for some valuable peace and tranquillity.

The Abbey, a jewel of medieval mysticism. It is one of the most beautiful monuments in an ancient Roman style, which also has elements of the French and Lombardy styles. Legend has it that the abbey was founded by Charles the Great in 781. The king and his army stopped here on the way back from Rome as the soldiers were afflicted by an unknown pestilence. An angel appeared to Charlemagne, telling him to make his men drink an infusion with a local herb. The cure worked and the army was saved so the king decided to build the church in gratitude.

Charming public square in Montepulciano -- go up into the tower of the Palazzo Comunale for one of the best views of the Valdichiana

Beautiful historical center of the central. Must visit day and evening.

Piazza Grande in Montepulciano may be small, but it’s truly a Tuscan gem. It offers a stunning view of the historic town hall, surrounded by charming Renaissance buildings, and from the square, you can wander into the quaint, atmospheric streets typical of this beautiful region. A must-visit for lovers of history, architecture, and wine alike — Montepulciano will surely capture your heart.

Very beautiful place and the souvenir shop sells Twilight: New Moon merchandise.

Piazza Grande is the heart of Montepulciano, a stunning medieval square surrounded by Renaissance architecture, including the Palazzo Comunale and Duomo of Montepulciano. Its origins date back to the 14th century, and it has long been a symbol of civic pride and Tuscan elegance. Film fans will recognize it as a key location in Twilight: New Moon, where the dramatic Volturi scenes were shot - adding a cinematic layer to its timeless beauty. Whether you're here for the history or the Hollywood connection, Piazza Grande is a must-see in southern Tuscany.

Montepulciano is a medieval hilltop town in Tuscany, Italy. Surrounded by vineyards, it’s known for its vino nobile red wine. The Torre di Pulcinella is a clock tower topped by a figure of the Pulcinella, a commedia dell’arte character. On the Piazza Grande is the 14th-century Palazzo Comunale, with a tower offering views of the surrounding countryside. Also here is the Duomo, with a huge triptych above its altar.

Montepulciano’s Piazza Grande is a solid mix of history, Renaissance architecture, and tourists trying to find the perfect selfie angle. The main attraction? Aside from the impressive Palazzo Comunale and the cathedral, it’s the town’s famous Vino Nobile di Montepulciano - a red wine 🍷so well regarded that even popes were fans. It was also the filmed location for the Vampire series - Twilight. 🧛 Climb the town hall tower for a great view (if you don’t mind the steps), or just grab a glass of Vino Nobile and enjoy the square from ground level. Either way, it’s worth the visit, just be ready for some uphill walking.

Amazing place. A convent/church that has been revived by a genius architect and artist who built magnificent and creative theaters behind it. Unique. Wherever you look, you'll see another work of art. Entrance only on weekends by pre reservation. The tour (mandatory) is a bit too long, and *you can't* leave before it ends...

PLEASE AVOID! Leaving one star because I can’t leave no stars. I don’t even know where to begin. We arrived after 11am on a Saturday morning (hadn’t checked the website as I always check opening times on google maps, perhaps my fault), and were rushed in by somebody standing at the gate to the property. Without explaining much, he told us it was 10€ per person, and we paid in cash. He locked the gate and told us to follow him. We arrived to an amazing amphitheater where there were about 100 people, half of them listening to an older guy speaking very loudly in Italian. It was no problem we didn’t understand half of it, at least we would get a tour of the place, or so we thought. He rambled for at least 45 min… not really sure if that was supposed to be a tour or what, but we decided we were not willing to spend the next hour listening to a mad man talking about the universe in the intense heat, without seeing any of the actual place! Worst 10€ spent, ever. Still, we thought we’d cut our losses and asked the man who we paid to let us in, to let us out. No big deal right? He told us to wait 5 min, which we did. After that, we asked again if we could leave. Very very quickly he got quite defensive, and said (not jokingly) he “might not let us out at all”. EXCUSE ME, WHAT? I’ve never ever experienced such awful customer care/experience. We can laugh about it now but panic was starting to set it, honestly. I was so ready to call the police when he started walking towards the exit. We followed him and thank god! What an absolute nightmare. We were finally free. I’m sure the place is amazing, and I would have loved to see more of it, but it’s really not worth dealing with such tw***. Spend your money somewhere else. In a pizza, a glass of wine, an aperol spritz or anywhere else where you’ll feel you’re actually treated with respect. PLEASE AVOID!!

The place is beautiful and for sure culturally and historically fascinating, but as a person with limited understanding of Italian, I felt like I was a prisoner of the tour guides who refused to let us leave after an hour of listening to an abstract monologue full of insults and inside jokes that no one found funny. In the end we convinced someone to open the door for us, but were denied the honor of seeing medieval frescoes, which felt a lot like a vendetta for our lack of appreciation for the tour. The road leading to the place is definitely only fit for 4x4 cars. If you have one, speak Italian and also have 10€, 2 hours and a lot of patience then I guess it can be worth it. Really curious to know what guardia di finanza would say about the fact there is cash only & no receipts policy.

The architect Tomaso Buzzi is the creative mind who brought together historical styles, symbols, and quotes from the past in his designs for this aritecture park. Built on the ex-property of a Franciscan monestary. Our guide, the nephew of Buzzi, opened the visit by noting: "St. Francis was the first who used drugs" as a way to think about the way people use drugs today to change their perception of the world. The tour is in italian but there is someone on hand to help with English sums on the side. Group visit is big (c100 people) but the guide uses a speaker-microphone so it was easy to hear. Also, big open spaces and much freedom to walk around and take photos. It seemed to me many people in my group did not read about the site in advance OR were not open-minded enough to appreciate the site and the guide. I highly recommend the site for people who want to have an experience outside the norm of guided visits to art-gardens in Italy. Be sure to rsvp weeks in advance.

Incredible history of architecture and sculpture! Must visit but call and book in advance as they often don't take bookings/no last minute entries! 10euro per person

Amazing surreal place in the middle of nowhere. Despite all the complaints about the guide I thought it was fantastic and suit the uncommon nature of the place itself! He's a genius.

A different experience into a place hidden from society and frozen in time. Not quite easy to reach but definitely worth it. The architecture is full of mystical symbols and the guide stories are both interesting and fun. Preorder are received by emails for groups of min 8 persons

Beautiful thermal baths with relaxing pools, perfect water temperature, and a peaceful atmosphere surrounded by nature. Staff are very friendly and everything is well organized. The only drawback was the showers — they switch off every 30 seconds and the cabins are a bit small. Still, a wonderful place to relax and I’d be happy to return! 🌿✨

Used the day spa services. I have been three times this year since we live fairly close. The spa offers different pools and lovely grounds with different types of chairs and umbrella options to relax. The half day pass is a bargain at 15 euros. Be sure to bring your own flip flops or water sandals and robe or towel. no street shoes allowed outside of locker rooms. Daily use includes free lockers showers blow dryers etc. I have booked various massages and massage staff are all very professional. Front desk staff helpful and some can speak English. Easy selection of fresh salads in casual lunch restaurant. Reasonably priced. Overall a good way to spend the day in Tuscany.

This place is definitely worth visiting. The mineral pools are so great for your health. Everything was positive. The reception was welcoming and friendly, the facilities were clean and in good condition. We had a fantastic time and it is so affordable. The 15 euro morning pass was more than enough time for us and included so many pools and stunning views.

Pretty place, but honestly the worst massage I’ve ever had. I’m not even sure it was a real masseuse or just someone hired. I’ll be booking a proper deep tissue massage when I’m back home. My friend had one too and felt the same way. I would not book a massage here. 3 stars over how terrible the massage was

We went for a girls trip, highly recommend. Facilities where great, staff very friendly and everything in general I would say was high quality. Food and cocktails are very good and the treatment list has fair pricing. Really recommend if you are looking for some relax and peace of mind!

Great place with a beautiful view for a reasonable price. On a cold day, the temperature of the water is comfortable in the covered pool and in the first external pool. The further away you go from the covered pool, the lower the temperature of the water. A bit crowded on weekends.

We did a non-VIP day spa visit on a cloudy day in October (19°C). We arrived around noon, rented robes walked around the facility. The pools and sunbeds were not busy. The water temperature varies from pool to pool so the warm and hot pools were the only ones in use. By mid afternoon the indoor pool (hottest) was crowded. Based on visits to thermal spas in Iceland, Budapest and Canada, the facilities are mid-range but the presence of significant silt on the bottom of the pools was disconcerting. At times it felt like walking through muck, and the water is very milky so you can't see your feet/the bottom of the pool. Also, we weren't informed at the check in desk that you get access to the saunas only with the VIP ticket as they are located on the hotel side. Overall, I wouldn't go out of my way for this spa.

Lake is pretty but too dirty to swim in, and no beaches are worth mentioning. Many better places to stay in Umbria and Tuscany

It’s a nice lake to look at, but not to swim in. Fist of all, it’s a challenge to find a nice place to enter the water without walking through a swamp. Secondly, the water is murky, smelly and shallow. I’m a huge fan of natural lakes but when here, I (unfortunately) preferred the touristic swimming pools.

A magnific place where to pass your Italian holidays! Many restaurants, cafè lake view and boats to go to Islands! Cool for nature lovers and family with kids! 😉😊

Lake Trasimeno, Italy's fourth-largest lake, is a stream-fed body of water surrounded by vineyards, olive trees, and old castles. It offers freshwater fish and fishing, as well as all the water sports one can handle. With swimming-safe waters, a 50-kilometer bike path around the lake promoting exploration, and a natural park that encompasses the entire lake, this is a popular destination for nature enthusiasts. If you want a very relaxing and laid back holiday in Italy then consider this area. Out of the madding crowd but close enough to roam Umbria, Tuscany and Lazio for those more adventurous types. Highly recommended.

Very beautiful view, especially during sunset!

I went there for a picnic tour. That lake is really amazing. I wanna go there again.

Very beautiful, But unfortunately, the water is very dirty and too hot 🔥 Hopefully they can clean it because its worth it 🙏🏽

Nothing much happening in there. And its really hard to find the entrance. We ended up walking around outside to the bottom of it, yet there was a nice escalator we missed. Unique and spooky underground mini town, well, smaller than that but it has that feel.

A big place where you can take a tour inside, for free, a huge historic place from where you can enter the old town of the city to the The Fontana Maggiore and other monuments.

Unique medieval village experience! No cost!

This is quite an extraordinary spot, underneath the modern city!

I believe everyone visiting Perugia should stop by and explore Rocca Paolina. There is no entrance fee!

It is a page in the history of Perugia which bears witness to a vanished architectural structure; all that remains are those buildings which were transformed into the basement of the hated Rocca and which today can be visited and explored. The Rocca has a very particular charm, it feels like walking in an ancient medieval street but indoors. Nice sensations.

Great place to see the underground for free and on your own.

We received amazing assistance on the sales floor from Luca, who was friendly, knowledgeable and patient through our multiple purchases. However when it came to checkout, the cashier staff was rude, especially after I pointed out that he had filled my tax refund form incorrectly. I guess once Gucci has taken your money they don’t feel obligated to treat you decently anymore. Left the store on a sour note.

Wonderful store! Large, a lot of products from purse, shoes, clothes. Sales associates nice and friendly. They had a fire alarm as I was buying a purse and had to leave the store for about 20 minutes. Thought about not buying the purse I wanted but glad I did. I feel like I got a good price for the product. No regrets. The whole mall area is nice.

Shout out to Antonella for assisting us! She’s super kind and patient — definitely deserves more than 5 stars. The Gucci Outlet has a huge selection and great discounted prices. No regrets shopping here, totally worth the visit!

I went there on a rainy day, the service was impeccable & very friendly. They have a variety of options dating until 2021 and they had the Jackie collection on hand which is exactly what I was looking for. They also provided umbrella and bag protectors during this rainy day.

Really great Gucci store to visit! Prices are good compared to other places, and there’s a huge variety of items to see. The store has three floors — the first and second are full of Gucci products like bags, clothes, shoes, and accessories, while the third floor is just for payments, which makes checkout quick and simple. The place is big, well organized, and very easy to shop in. Perfect spot for anyone traveling here and looking for a nice Gucci shopping experience. Highly recommended!

A lot of options. But not all options available in Milan. Apparently the outlet has a little bit of a different offerings. This is the biggest Gucci store I’ve ever ever seen. It has clothes, bags, you name it they got it. Definitely an interesting place to see and prices are cheaper than Milan

Had the most amazing experience with Luca. He took the time with me and my sister in law to show us many bags. We each bought a bag and I bought my husband a card holder. Fabulous service.

What a place to live. Monks and nuns share this beautiful spot in honour of St. Francis. A must see when in this area

Cool place. Lits of tourists though. Great views, chappels everywhere, interesting 'caves' and history!

Beautiful stay at the monestary on top of the mountains. A lot of tourisrs but if you stay the night you can catch the monestary in its quiet tranquility. Beautiful hikes all around the area.

Beautiful place to experience the serenity and grace of the Franciscan spirituality. A place so dear to St Francis of Assisi. Set amongst a hill top cliff, it speaks of all things Francis, nature, serenity, wildlife.

It was indeed a gem. We had a lot th whole day. Prayer, meals, encounter, tour around the place and concluded with a procession and a mass.

Absolutely STUNNING PLACE whether you are believer or not. It is very suggestive place in the mountains in province of Arezzo (Tuscany). It consists of couple of buildings of sanctuary, church, chapels, place where Saint Francis received the stigmas, small museum, shop. You can feel strong spirituality and huge peace there. When i entered the church, one of Franciscan monk played the grand piano and I burst into tears without reason. We didn't planned this visit on our journey, we were with our dog, which was not a problem everywhere outside. Please pay attention, there is about 5-7 degrees colder in this valley, we suggest to take jumper or jacket with you. We ate local "piadinas" in small bar near the parking place. Surely WORTH OF NEXT VISIT AGAIN.

Nestled in the heart of Tuscany, Italy, La Verna is a place of unparalleled natural beauty and spiritual significance. Its rugged cliffs and lush forests provide a stunning backdrop to the iconic La Verna Sanctuary, where St. Francis of Assisi once communed with nature and received the stigmata. A pilgrimage to this hallowed site promises a profound connection with both the divine and the wonders of the Italian landscape.

A very impressive castle surrounded by the greenest water I’ve ever seen. Located just at the entrance of Ferrara medieval beautiful down town. What makes it more perfect is that it is absolutely free of charge, no entrance fee, no packed tourists. Just for you to enjoy it by yourself…

The castle it’s absolutely stunning! I am surprised that this is not known even more to general public. Everything about it is amazing! Worth stopping by for a one day.

Haven't been inside the castle but the exterior leaves you with the impression of time travel, exquisitely maintained.

neat castle, layout and history. Fun tour, great veiws of Ferrara from the top of the tower. The frescos the are left are great. some have incredible detail.

A moated medieval castle in the center of Ferrara, northern Italy. It consists of a large block with four corner towers.

Every city or town has its iconic monuments, etc. I like to visit small towns instead of big cities. Ferrara is a unique, small town.

Impressive castle right in the center of Ferrara — surrounded by a moat and full of history.

We ordered the room trough Booking and got totally different room - smaller ofcourse. With terrace that is locked with two locks. So you pay for a spacious room and get a tiny room in the attic. When we wanted to sort things out with the owner he/she? (They dont answer the phone, comunicate only via whatsapp text messages) told us that booking is mixing pictures which is not true. Anyways the owners manners were absolutely horrific, he in fact told us to leave him alone.. There are many better acomodations in Ferrara, please support them. People running this place are the worst.

They charged for consumption of snacks that did not occur, and I never gave them my card information directly, meaning they got it from either Booking or Nexi. They provided the wrong WiFi information, but with a good amount of insults as I confronted them.

I'am very disapointed with this acomodation. I feel cheated and disgusted. We booked this acomodation via booking and unfortunatelly did not checked the reviews on google. The acomodation is something absolutely different than what we saw on booking pictures. Also there should be tereace which is locked, dirty and behind the grids. The acomodation is totally not matching the photos and hosts actions and communications is behind any boundaries of good manners. I definitely do not recommend it.

Although I found this on a day use hotel website they claim they're not. After calling and trying to reach them to get a better proper answer they just hang up the phone or don't answer it. I came to Ferrara to have a rest here on purpose and now have no where to go. The minimum is to answer the phone or door! Been standing outside ringing the bell and nothing. Dear team be careful where you put your business! Thank you , hope that help and now I'm just going to take a nap in the street , thanks to amazing professionalism.

One of the worst hotels I've ever been to. They have the central A/C system and they set it to 25°. Do you call that A/C? Had to complain several times to set it to 21°. The bed was really bad. It makes a very disturbing noise every time you move. After changing the towels, they provided just one big towel for two people. Extremely disappointed.

Great place to stay...Clean, beautiful, not far from the city centre

Nice,big rooms. Very good location

The hall is just immense, especially the height and considering when it was built. A must-see when in the area. The loggia allows beautiful views over the surrounding area.

A must see building by the famous Andrea Palladio. There was an interesting exhibition about an architecture prize when we visited. We didn’t find the way to the highest level but the views to the centre were nice already from the first floor.

Impressive Renaissance building by architect Andrea Palladio who did not see its completion in 1614. The double loggia (arched gallery) in white marble wraps around an older Gothic structure from the mid 15th century. It functioned as a court of law and has a marvellous slender and tall clock tower

Nice, plain architecture with a beautiful terrace looking over the main square of the city. It's a shame that you have to get an additional ticket for different exhibitions to see the inside of the building.

We bought the Vincenza pass ( 4 places ) and used it for the Basilica as one of our stop, will worth it, some lovely roof top views and an exhibition too

The Basilica Palladiana is Vicenza’s architectural showstopper—and heck, its best selfie spot. It’s history in haute couture: elegant, bold, and endlessly influential. Marvel at its facades, sip on the rooftop, and let the limestone loggias whisper stories of civic pride and Renaissance flair into your soul. Renaissance done right, darling.

Palladian Basilica is a building that tries very hard to impress. Columns, arches, everything is decorous and noble, just like “an architectural classic for a textbook”. But, to be honest, don’t expect revelations inside: it’s more like a huge stone hint that they once knew how to build beautifully and on a grand scale here. Palladian Basilica is a classic of the genre: architectural grandeur plus a modern bonus in the form of a ticket office at the entrance. Yes, yes, Andrea Palladio probably dreamed that his creation would be perceived centuries later as “another expense item on vacation”. It’s beautiful inside, no doubt, but you feel like you’re not in a temple of architecture, but in a “pay-and-see” museum. As a result, you get a symbiosis: the spirit of the Renaissance and a light aroma of commerce. Well, art also wants to eat.

Very impressive theater. The tour through the museum lasts about 15-30 minutes depending on how much you want to read. If there’s a concert or something similar while you’re staying in Vicenza, I recommend booking a ticket to experience the theater in action. During summer it’s very hot (there‘s no AC).

We saw a Bach concert that suited this Andrea Palladio masterpiece theatre very well. As it’s a protected building only few changes have been made and we didn’t see any bar, but didn’t miss it either as there was no intermission. The seats are quite uncomfortable but acceptable in a heritage building like this one. The play with spatial illusions makes the scene very dramatic and special.

It may be over 400 years old but the Teatro Olimpico remains stunning and immensely practical. The stage set including the streets laid out in perfect perspective must have added to the theatrical experience and captivated and enthralled audiences. You can't go on the stage so you have to make do with a scale model made from Lego to appreciate the technique. Pure genius from the master classical architect Palladio. We bought the Vicenza Silver Card for free admission to four of the top tourist sites. This is one of the best.

Exceptional. The fact that the theatre exists largely as-is from the 16th century and the visual effect of the theater backdrop simulating loooong streets leave one stare in awe. If in the area, a must-see!

All of Vicenza is beautiful and one of our favourite places in Italy. But this theatre... Is... AMAZING! Yes it's not very big, but if you get your tickets as part of a multi attraction pass it is very cheap. The theatre itself is incredible and has the original set pieces from its creation which make an optical illusion. There is a free audio guide which gives a great insight. No photo can do it justice. The seats are original wood from the 1500's... So be careful of catching your pants on a nail or splinter. Also. You will NEED to use the small stairs, on either end or the centre to move up and down the seating. The staff get very upset about you stomping down the seating given its age.

Well worth a visit, they gave us a scan code for a 20 minute audio which was good. Certainly should visit if you have time in Vicenza.

Amazing place, definitely worth a visit in Vicenza. We were with a small child and a dog in our arms, but the staff was kind and everything went well

This is a lovely piazza to visit with many sculptures surrounding the water and grass area, however there isn't much else to do unless you visit on a market day. We caught the stall holders clearing away on the Saturday evening, so there was a lot of plastic mess around the piazza but it was all clean by the Sunday. You can walk the length of Via Roma towards the Prato delta Valle and also visit the Botanic Gardens and Basilica. If approaching from Via Roma, there is a supermarket on the opposite side of the piazza.

So many statues, and the four bridges! The main square is huge. The basilica is well worth seeing, as is the church to the N (1 block) of the park. FYI, there are some cute 'tourist trap' places along that street for souvenirs!!

Beautiful and epic! Can enjoy sitting or exploring. Great place to gather with friends or family, or to walk/exercise. Perfect time to visit is day or night.

Prato della Valle is a huge square where in summer you can feel like a cutlet on a Teflon frying pan. The place is certainly impressive in size and number of statues, but the sun is so generous here that the only shadow is your own. Yes, it is beautiful, spacious, but it is better to come either at dawn or after sunset, otherwise the walk turns into an express version of an open-air sauna.

One of the largest squares in Italy and home to over 70 statues from important names in the history of the city. However, I do feel that the place is a bit overrated for tourism. The square (and the water) is a bit dirty, a lot of concrete, and there are no signs or plaques with explanations about the statues.

Great central circle with lots of historical significance which doubles as a park. It made for a great starting location to navigate the city.

It was our first stop for the day which might have been a mistake as a tourist. It was nice seeing the local vendors but they were selling produce and since we were traveling, we could not take advantage of their products. I believe it would be different at night when the street vendors are serving food. It would be an excellent place for live music as well. As for the area itself. There is a lot of green space surrounded by water with bridges to cross the water. There are many statues to look at and it was very peaceful when we were there. If I were to return, I would definitely do the evening visit.

No tickets required, but dress appropriately! If you have too much skin showing, they will provide covering to wear for 1 Euro. I was very impressed by that, so no one would be turned away! You can wear shorts and short sleeve shirts for comfort in the heat...just not too short. This magnificent place is a must-see!

The Basilica of St. Anthony is truly my place of strength. Every time I come here, I feel a powerful energy that surrounds and uplifts me. The atmosphere is so unique and deeply spiritual that it’s impossible to leave without feeling renewed and inspired. A must-visit for anyone who wants to experience something beyond the ordinary.

The exterior is a melange of architectural styles, fairly plain brickwork but with Byzantine minarets and domes reminiscent of the Hagia Sophia of Istanbul. Internally it is pure Gothic with wonderful sculptures and artwork. The scale is vast and the ceilings almost disappear into the distance, many covered by netting to catch falling debris. This is a site of pilgrimage for followers of Saint Anthony and there was a line to enter the chapels containing his relics. The lighting is very dim so the architecture is not shown to best advantage but nevertheless the effect is inspiring.

It was a great blessing and goosebumping experience to have a dharhsan at St. Antony's basilica at Padova. One could feel the positive divine vibration the moment enters into the Basilica. Indeed, we spent more time in the Basilica in prayer and meditation. St. Antony of Padova is the patron saint for lost objects. St. Antony of Padova is widely celebrated saint in South India. We had a opportunity to pray at his cemetery, tonsee his unperished tounge and jaw. His incorruptible relic is housed in this basilica.

Due to our ancestral devotion to St. Anthony, my wife and I made a point to visit Padua, and the cathedral here is truly mesmerizing. Having visited Lisbon as well, we were particularly struck by the abundance of St. Anthony’s relics housed in this beautiful church. You will find St Anthony's pillow stone, uncorrupted tongue of St Anthony, Jaw bone with teeth, vocal apparatus, skin from head, cassock, St Anthony's finger, hair. Plus relics of other saints and items from cross on which Jesus died

One of the most magnificent basilicas you will ever see. Its fame rests not only on its architectural beauty but also on the spiritual aura that resides within the basilica. It houses the mortal remains of St Antony of Padua. It also has the relics of more than a dozen other saints including St Pope John Paul II. Catholics from all over the world flock to the Basilica throughout the year. One thing that catches our eyes is the altar that has all the relics.

Amazing inside and outside. Went for a walk by night and it was very never with the moonlight. The interior is superb, lots of different Chappelle with amazing art and, of course the saint Anthony spaces for pilgrims. Please, respect the place, there's people praying

Ever since I read Gombrich’s The Story of Art years ago, I had dreamed of visiting this place. Undoubtedly the highlight of our trip to Italy! Impeccably preserved, with lighting at the base that showcases the frescoes in the chapel in the best possible way. Giotto, in the 1300s, is a landmark figure pinned on the grand tapestry of art history, undeniably a medieval genius and at the same time the starting point of the Renaissance. He was among the first to bring architectural frames, outdoor scenery, shadowing, expressions, and natural gestures into his figures. Giotto’s innovations in spatial depth and emotional realism paved the way for Masaccio, and eventually for Da Vinci, Michelangelo and the High Renaissance. What makes the experience even more fascinating is its story: the chapel was commissioned by Enrico Scrovegni as an act of penance for his family’s sins of usury. The only real pity is that each visit is limited to just 15 minutes. Honestly, it feels far too short, so we couldn’t help but want to buy another ticket just to experience it all over again.

What an amazing place and fascinating history. Regardless of whether you are religious or not. The incredible creativity of a man in the 1300's has to be witnessed. The human emotions that have been depicted throughout the chapel are amazing. Highly recommend a visit to this well organised historic site.

This is a rare chance to see a monumental work by Giotto, spinning several dozen biblical scenes. You have to buy tickets in advance, but the experience is definitely worth your time and hassle.

The chapel itself was astonishing and breathtaking. There was a short video in air-conditioned room before entering, which provided general info. - Unfortunately, there was not enough time to patiently savour the frescoes, we were rushed out, so I was very dissappointed:( *I know there are many people coming to visit, but I would strongly consider prolonging the visiting time.

A must see when you visit the beautiful city of Padova. Very important to arrive in time as stated by your on line reservation as the admission process for visiting the chapel is strictly adhered to.

Absolute riot of fresco that are staggeringly numerous, detailed and beautiful. Entry strictly controlled and 15 minutes only, so try booking 2 consecutive slots to do this place justice.

Thank God, they haven't covered the original paintings and original walls. Since this is not the active chapel, we can feel the real archeological smell. Visitors are allowed inside onkybfor 15 min. There is an automatic door system to ensure the interiors are protected from environmental damage to the original paintings. Surprised to know that it was a private chapel of a wealthy citizen lived in Padova. His name was. Enrico Scrovegni. Like Dante's hell , this Chapel has Giotto 's hell. Interesting to know that there is a pope (rebelled )in the hell. The paintings are worth watching.

Nothing quite like it. For travellers, this body of water represent life, entertainment, livelihood, connection to ea SH other, services and beauty. So much history, so much beauty! At night time it glitters colours and lights from different establishments. During the day it becomes a guide, a marker for people to follow and wander to their destination. Venice and Grand Canal, where nature and people’s ingenuity combine.

The Grand Canal is the heart of Venice—beautiful palaces lining both sides, gondolas gliding by, and vaporettos buzzing through. Whether you take a boat ride or just admire it from the bridges, the views are absolutely unforgettable.

This waterway runs the entire length of the Lagoon of Venice! There is much traffic on the waterway: water buses, water taxis, gondolas and private boats and amazing to see how they navigate it all. I purchased a 3-Day Water Bus pass and it allowed me to enjoy the beautiful views, massive buildings, Rialto Bridge and exquisite architecture of all the other buildings along the waterway.

The Grand Canal is Venice’s main waterway, offering stunning views of historic palaces and iconic bridges — a must-see for first-time visitors.

It was amazinggg, We loved it.We took the gondola and it was a great experience. We paid 90€ in total for three people. The price does not change depending on the number of people. It is the same whether there are five people. The 30 minute gondola ride is priced at 90€.Definitely take a walk around the back streets, this is essential to understand the spirit of Venice. And definitely eat at more local establishments, it's cheaper and more original.

Obviously a world famous place to go, wonderful, must go there, loved it. Enjoyed a lot, an outstanding experience.

Line 1 of the vaporetto is Venice’s best show. If you’re lucky enough to get the seats beside the pilot cabin, you feel the city open up: the thrum of the engines, the vibration of the deck plates, the water slapping the hull, and palazzi lit like stage sets as you glide past. Rialto was once the world’s trading floor, where goods from East and West were landed — and you sense that weight of history even now, slipping under its arch by night. A vaporetto ride is Venice’s greatest souvenir: not bought, but lived.

Beautiful location. Choose the time of year you go as it can become very busy indeed. The streets of Venice are many and varied with many bridges and not a car to be seen. The waterways are busy too, bustling with boats which is entertaining to watch. Easy access by foot straight from the train station. Most definitely worth a visit but go armed with 'maps' on your phone so you don't get lost.

Such a lovely place to visit, the buildings are stunning. Very busy with a great feel and atmosphere. Very easy to get too, with lots of gift shops and stalls very close by, and also ferrry rides and gondola rides on the waterfont. A wonderfully beautiful place to be. Very hapy to have visited here

Beautiful buildings. Not crowded in October. Pleasant weather. Live music in the middle of the Piazza at Cafe Florian. Best place for some photos. I did not visit the building, just drank a coffee and walked around.

In my opinion, Piazza San Marco is one of the most beautiful squares in the world. The entire place feels almost magical — the canals, the buildings, the bell tower, the palace, and the clock all add a unique touch of grandeur and splendor. This square was one of the main reasons I visited Venice, and it truly exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend experiencing its charm in person.

Piazza San Marco is absolutely stunning — truly the heart of Venice! The architecture is breathtaking, with St. Mark’s Basilica, the Doge’s Palace, and the Campanile all surrounding the square. There’s something magical about just standing there, listening to the music from the cafés, and watching the world go by. It can get crowded, but it’s 100% worth visiting. Try coming early in the morning or later in the evening when it’s quieter — the atmosphere is unforgettable. A must-see for anyone visiting Venice

Lots of seagulls that will attack you if you have food. Get ready to defend yourself. Great place that really adds to the magic of venice specially when you are standing in the main plaza

An absolutely stunning place, full of history and beauty. The architecture is breathtaking, and the atmosphere is truly unique. It can get quite crowded, but it’s definitely worth visiting. A must-see spot in Venice!

You can get English or Italian audio guide to the museum which locates downstairs of a bar. The layout of the display cabinets were a bit confusing but the audios were very detailed. It was interesting and worth spending part of the afternoon there. After the museum, I suggest the outdoor seating at the bar because it has one of the most stunning views of River Brenta from there.

You can buy the tickets in the cafeteria and visit the museum downstairs to learn about the history of the Alpini

Very informative good exhibits

(Translated by Google) Small museum run by the Alpine troops inside the bar on the famous Bassano bridge. Small museum but very well kept and with some truly goosebump-inducing objects, the exhibit that struck me the most is the helmet with the bullet hole and still with traces of blood and brain matter, perhaps it is macabre but it reminds us that millions of people died. Thank you for what you do, places like this shout out loud "DON'T FORGET" especially to the new generations (Original) Piccolo museo gestito dagli alpini all'interno del bar sul famoso ponte di Bassano. Piccolo museo ma molto ben tenuto e con alcuni oggetti veramente da pelle d'oca, il reperto che più mi ha colpito è l'elmetto con il foro di proiettile e ancora con tracce di sangue e materia cerebrale, forse è macabro ma ci ricorda che milioni di persone sono morte. Grazie per quello che fate, posti simili gridano a gran voce "NON DIMENTICARE" soprattutto alle nuove generazioni

(Translated by Google) A beautiful museum that tells the story of the Alpine troops. The museum entrance is inside the tavern, where tickets are available for €3. At the entrance, you can download an app with a museum guide. A must-see if you're visiting Bassano! (Original) Bellissimo museo che racconta la storia degli alpini. L’entrata del museo è all’interno della taverna dove si possono acquistare i biglietti a 3 euro. All’ingresso si può scaricare una app con la guida del museo. Assolutamente da visitare se si visita Bassano!

(Translated by Google) Small museum to access you pass through the bar where you buy tickets for 3 euros. You go down one floor and enter this small museum but very well stocked with memorabilia, weapons, helmets, uniforms and panels that tell the story of the Great War. There is the possibility of downloading an audio guide (very accurate), it is worth a visit. (Original) Piccolo museo per accedervi si passa dal bar dove si acquistano i biglietti al costo di 3 euro .Si scende di un piano e si entra in questo piccolo museo ma fornitissimo di cimeli ,armi ,elmetti divise e pannelli che raccontano la grande guerra .Vi e la possibilita' di scaricare un audioguida (molto accurata), merita una visita.

(Translated by Google) How emotional!! Remembering my grandfather, a Russian Alpine veteran. Beautiful, very well-made audio guide. The entrance fee was more than reasonable. The Alpine Museum in Bassano del Grappa is a moving place dedicated to the history of the Alpine troops and offers a collection of artifacts from the First and Second World Wars. Overall, the Alpine Museum in Bassano del Grappa is a must-visit for anyone interested in the history and culture of the Alpine troops. (Original) Quanta emozione !! Ricordando il nonno Alpino reduce di Russia Bellissimo , audio guida molto ben fatta . Biglietto di ingresso più che onesto . Il Museo degli Alpini di Bassano del Grappa è un luogo emozionante è dedicato alla storia degli Alpini e offre una collezione di reperti della Prima e Seconda Guerra Mondiale. In generale, il Museo degli Alpini di Bassano del Grappa è un luogo da visitare per chiunque sia interessato alla storia e alla cultura degli Alpini.

This palace is beautiful and full of history and artwork. I recommend buying tickets ahead of time and giving yourself at least two hours to explore. I recommend getting a tour guide to learn more about the history of the palace. The café was also nice and not too expensive. It’s a must see when in Venice.

The Doge’s Palace in Venice is one of the city’s true highlights. The architecture is stunning, and the frescoes that adorn the walls are absolutely breathtaking — a masterpiece of art that can only be rivaled by those in the Vatican. The entire building exudes history and power, making it easy to imagine the grandeur of Venice’s past. I highly recommend visiting this remarkable landmark.

You have to get tickets online so you'll save time, not waiting to buy tickets. This palace is gorgeous, you will need more than an hour to see everything. This place is huge, there is a lot of photos opportunity. They have a impressive selection of fancy rooms. The ceiling is full of art, with golden details. Take time to learn about the history of this place. They have tour guides here as well, in case you want to learn more in detail. Give yourself about 2 hours here.

A must-see in Venice! The Doge’s Palace is absolutely breathtaking — filled with history, incredible art, and ornate architecture that captures the essence of Venice’s power and beauty. We visited around 5 PM, and it wasn’t busy at all, which made it even more enjoyable to explore at our own pace. Highly recommend booking tickets in advance to skip any lines and ensure your preferred time. Walking across the Bridge of Sighs and seeing the view from both sides was unforgettable. Truly one of the highlights of our trip!

Book ahead of time and the queue isn't TOTALLY awful. Impressive selection of fancy rooms with big paintings in them. Have fun spotting which doge looks the most like Santa! Surprised the gift shop doesn't do Doge Top Trumps, this would sell (if palazzo ducale are listening). Also top tip: at some point in the tour you get to the prison cells and you have the option to take the short route or the 'complete tour'. The complete tour is just LOTS MORE PRISON CELLS. Only take if you really enjoy empty stone rooms and stairs!

We booked a tour via get your guide (crown tours). The tour guide we had was passionate and her English was really easy to understand. We learnt so much. We chose the balcony tour and that was excellent and not too crowded. Got so much more out of your than I expected. Be warned plan to get there earlier than your time slot, I saw a couple who were late and missed there toyr and as other tours were full could not join the next one.

Oh my gracious what an incredible palace!! 686 years old. Do a tour! We did with skip the line passes. Hearing the history is needed to understand the meaning of so much of this palace. It is ginormous. I could walk around and stare at all the artwork and art, the exhibits, the prisons! Crazy to think prisoners as recently as 1920 were still being held here. The sheer wealth ugh

St. Mark’s Basilica is one of the most breathtaking and iconic landmarks in Venice truly a masterpiece of architecture and history. The moment you step into Piazza San Marco and see the golden domes and intricate mosaics shining in the sunlight, it feels absolutely magical. Inside, the basilica is stunning beyond words. The golden mosaics that cover the ceilings and walls are extraordinary, telling biblical stories in incredible detail and color. The marble floors, arches, and artwork all reflect centuries of Venetian glory and devotion. Every corner feels sacred and timeless. The view from the terrace is also unforgettable you can see the whole square, the Doge’s Palace, and the sparkling lagoon beyond. It’s one of the best spots to take photos and admire the beauty of Venice from above. Visiting St. Mark’s Basilica is a must for anyone coming to Venice. It’s not just a church it’s a living piece of art and history that leaves you amazed and inspired.

Wow. First look was across the square - what a magnificent place. Loved listening to Rick Steeves podcast about the square and outside of the church. So many intricacies and unique bits. Then we were a part of a mass in the side chapel- so lovely. Came back later that day for the whole tour (again with RS!) amazing history, architecture, heaving floor & art! Did the whole deal with Pala d’oro and Loggia and glad I did. So cool to get up close to the horses, the mosaics, the view from up top. I bought tickets the same day but that saved me some waiting time.

The Saint Mark’s Basilica is one of the most beautiful Catholic churches I have ever visited. The basilica blends perfectly with the surrounding Saint Mark’s Square and the Doge’s Palace, creating a breathtaking historical setting. The main altar is truly a jewel—absolutely astonishing in its detail and craftsmanship. On the second floor, the four Greek horses are remarkable pieces of art and history. I highly recommend visiting this magnificent church with a guided tour to fully appreciate its rich background and hidden details.

St. Mark’s Basilica – Venice We had tickets for the basilica but mixed up the date due to the time difference coming from the U.S.—we were supposed to visit on the 3rd at 3:00 PM, and only realized that day that our reservation was actually for the 4th which is the following day. We arrived very early in the morning of the 4th when it opened. There was an event in the piazza so there was no line at all, and we explained that we had to catch a train later that afternoon. Despite the empty entryway and our situation, we were denied entry and told to return at the exact reservation time. We respect that there are rules and timed tickets exist for crowd control, but it was disappointing that there was zero flexibility, especially when the basilica was not crowded and accommodating two visitors would not have impacted operations. The basilica itself is extraordinary, and MAYBE we’ll try again next time—but travelers should know that the staff take reservation times very strictly, even when the site is relatively quiet.

The Basilica di San Marco is really impressive. It offers incredible details and beautiful art. It is usually sold out for the next 2 days, so I recommend purchasing tickets in advance. On the official website you can buy it with an entry time, so you don’t have to queue outside. Once inside, you can also buy tickets for some additional areas of the Basilica, directly through a QR code that is placed right in front of the area you want to visit. If you wish to get an audio guide, you can rent one once inside, just after the access, but you will need your own earphones (which currently need a mini jack to be connected to the device), if you don’t have it, you can still hear it placing the device on your ear. This is available in several languages and it will be necessary if you want to know what you’re looking at in the Basilica. Depending on how long you want to stay inside, you may be able to see it all in 30-60 minutes, differently from the Palazzo Ducale which takes much longer. Have fun!

There are no words that do justice to describing this Basilica. It dazzles you with something spectacular, then trumps itself with the next tings. From the greatest marble floors in the world to arguably the greatest golden Byzantine wall and ceiling mosaics in the world. The gold glimmers in the light and tells the story of the bible in the vivid detail that the height of Byzantine art manages better than anyone else. Do not miss the Pala d’oro, a golden altarpiece that is worth every penny. Do not miss the museum, whose collection is better than most national collections. Not least because the famous four horses from the Hippdrome in Constantinople are there. The greatest piece of ancient art in the world still with us. They mesmerise. They look and feel real. Then there is the views of the square from the balcony…

St. Mark’s Basilica is regarded as the most important landmark in Venice. It is located at the heart of Piazza San Marco, adjacent to the Doge’s Palace, and serves as one of the finest examples of medieval ecclesiastical architecture in Europe. The first church on this site was constructed between 829 and 836 AD to house the relics of St. Mark the Evangelist, whose remains were taken from Alexandria, Egypt, and brought to Venice in the 9th century. The present structure, replacing the earlier church, was built between 1063 and 1094. The basilica reflects a fascinating blend of Byzantine, Romanesque, and Gothic architectural styles. Its domes, mosaics, marble decorations, and opulent interior are strongly reminiscent of Hagia Sophia and other Byzantine churches, underlining the cultural and artistic exchange between East and West. In addition to its religious role as a reliquary for St. Mark’s remains, the basilica also became a repository for treasures acquired during the Crusades. Following the Fourth Crusade and the Latin sack of Constantinople in 1204, numerous artworks and relics were brought to Venice and placed in St. Mark’s Basilica. Among the most famous of these are the four bronze horses originally from the Hippodrome of Constantinople, the Portrait of the Four Tetrarchs, and fragments such as the head of a statue of Emperor Justinian. These artifacts highlight the basilica’s historical role not only as a religious center but also as a symbol of Venetian wealth and power. The Crusades themselves were military campaigns organized initially to defend Byzantine territories and reclaim the Holy Land following the advance of Turkish and Islamic powers. The Seljuk Empire, the Ottoman beyliks that later formed the Ottoman Empire, and the Ayyubid Sultanate were among the key states against which the Crusades were directed. On the Christian side, the Byzantine Empire, the Papal States, the Republic of Venice, the Republic of Genoa, the Kingdom of Naples, as well as monarchies such as France and England, played significant roles in these campaigns.

This bridge is really beautiful. It offers a nice view around, being quite high and is amazing both day and night. On the downside, it’s crazy crowded and you may need to wait your turn just to take a picture.

The Ponte di Rialto in Venice is one of the most beautiful bridges I’ve ever seen. The combination of the gondolas gliding along the Grand Canal and the bridge’s elegant architecture creates one of the most breathtaking views in all of Venice. It truly feels magical. I highly recommend visiting it!

Fantastic views from either side of the bridge make this bridge well worth a visit. The earlier in the day you can manage the better as it is still crowded in the winter months. However the views are worthwhile and the photo opportunities are excellent.

Visited the Rialto Bridge while in Venice, very easy to get to and visible from different places and also from the water. Lots of shops on each side of the bridge, and lots of gift stalls at each end. A beautiful structure that is equally beautiful in daylight as it is after dark. A must see if in venice

It’s a bridge — but a very beautiful one! The Ponte di Rialto is a great spot to take pictures and enjoy views of the Grand Canal. It’s usually busy, but the atmosphere is amazing. Definitely worth a quick stop when exploring Venice.

Loved staying nearby this beautiful bridge. Definitely a highlight to see it at all times of day, with the shops, the joy of everyone else experiencing the iconic moment and even the tension of all the boats and ferries doing the everyday life and business in the canal around it. There is a great local grocery store just down the canal. We didn’t end up eating in any of the restaurants right there as we found wonderful trattoria away from the crowds. Loved finding new views of it and from it.

An amazing experience. The Rialto bridge is definitely a must-see bridge while in Venice. It gets busy during the day as all tourists know this is a must-visit destination. We came here in October 2025 and there was still a lot of visitors but it is at the end of the season. There are restaurants where you can sit and enjoy cocktails and people-watch. The waterways are very busy so there's always something going on.

We love the charming city of Treviso. It has cobblestone streets, narrow sidewalks and adorable cafe's. We had the best gelloto. You can get lost in the many little streets within the walls of the fortress. Many streets line the canals were you with see ducks a swans. Rent a bike or take a stroll around the fort.

Piazza dei Signori is the heart of Treviso and one of the city’s most beautiful squares. Surrounded by elegant historic buildings and lively cafés, it’s the perfect spot to enjoy the atmosphere and start exploring the charming streets nearby. A must-see when visiting Treviso!

We preferred a walk in this city instead of crowded Venice. And we do not regret it, a very calm, beautiful and history-filled town.

The Loggia adjacent to the piazza has lovely vaulted ceilings. We enjoyed a lovely dinner @ one of the restaurants there

The sole center of this small Veneto town is adorned with Trecento Palace housing the Prefecture. Beautiful architecture with many bars around, in as well nice and charming streets

A very lively square of the town, full of bars and artistic sculptures every corner. It’s worth the visit.

Perfect half day trip, specially if you want to see a mini venice minus the crowds

If you get the chance to go there, don't hesitate. 👏👏👏 Awesome place, no doubt about it! ... Bungee-jumping is a thril! 🤙

I love it so much! The best place to spend a day with your family. 🤩

It makes you feel like you are really on a Caribbean island. Beautiful place with so much fun.

Great way to spend the day with family.

Cool

Beautiful place !

(Translated by Google) I've been going there for a few years now: it's a well-established entertainment machine, the important thing is to go there on a hot day and fun is guaranteed for every age group. Possibility of packed lunch in the various internal gardens or in the tent, but various catering points are available. Numerous staff are at your disposal, also to safeguard order and safety in the water. Those who don't want to be in the water can laze under the shade of a palm tree with their feet on the fine white sand, with the illusion of really being in the Caribbean. (Original) Ci vado ormai da alcuni anni: è una macchina del divertimento ben rodata, l'importante è capitarci in una giornata calda ed il divertimento è assicurato per ogni fascia di età. Possibilità di pranzo al sacco nei vari giardini interni o nel tendone, ma sono disponibili diversi punti di ristorazione. Numerosi ragazzi dello staff sono a vostra disposizione, anche per salvaguardare l'ordine e la sicurezza in acqua. Chi non vuole stare in acqua può poltrire sotto l'ombra di una palma con i piedi sulla finissima sabbia bianca, con l'illusione di essere davvero ai Caraibi.

We visited the outlet during the Venice Carnival and thought it would be very crowded due to the huge influx of tourists, but we were wrong. It was calm, and we could enjoy the walk. There is a great variety of stores. In some of them, the prices didn’t seem significantly lower than in regular shops, but in others, there was definitely a noticeable difference. Honestly, we expected lower prices and more deals.

A lot of stores and a wide range of brands, ranging from sweets, travelling equipment, household equipment to off course clothing. The area has a lot of cafes and dining places. A nice place to walk around and do shine shopping. They also have some 50kW charging stations in the parking area - easy to find navigating by the signs.

This is maybe the most beautiful outlet village I have ever visited, and I have visited a lot of them. Only 30 min from Venice, you should add this as a stopover to your trip and spend a day here. It has a huge parking (few of them), and it is extremely clean. You can easily find almost every Italian luxury brand here, but the awesome deals are not so easy to find, you have to dig deeper. Sometimes there are several really good shopping deals, sometimes less, but it is a pretty small chance that you will leave it empty handed. It is worth a visit. But set aside at least 4/5 hours considering its size.

One of the largest outlets in Europe. Nicely organized and you need a few hours to visit everything. As for the offer, it concerns various brands, including Italian ones. Prices in which shop, sometimes it pays off, somewhere it doesn't. The restaurants within the outlet are commendable in terms of what they offer (of course, you won't eat like in authentic Italian restaurants anywhere here, and you shouldn't expect that. The parking lot is very spacious and even when it's crowded, you can find a place relatively easily and quickly.

I like it - you can get all fashion brands on one place. Mostly, you need some luck as well, you will find also many good prices/discounts! I like such shopping centre as your family can go buying necessary, you can wait on the fresh air and simply enjoy

Easy trip from Venice. Worth every minute. well organized outlet experience that blends Italian with global fashion finds.

Outstanding outlet! Compared with other outlets this one is by far the most beautiful! Whole mall is clean. Entourage is great. Almost all the nice brands are in the mall. Discounts are real. Lots of food and drink places. Enough toilet facilities. And parking space more than enough! If you’re early you can park nearby, otherwise you will have to walk a couple minutes.

Beautiful path, quite easy to do for people of all ages and fitness. The standard loop walk of about 1.5 miles takes you through the caves and canyon where you can see waterfalls. You're given a map at the ticket office but even without it the path is well signed and easy to follow. I recommend going early morning in summer as it can get hot hiking back up. Also the parking is a bit complicated to figure out, it would help if there were a sign post next to it with instructions instead of on-the-go reading from the meter screen which is difficult when is very sunny as the day we went. A standard loop walking slowly takes you about 1 hour so don't pay more than 1.5h parking unless you plan on having lunch at the restaurant inside the loop path or stop at the bar near the car park.

Very cool place, challenging paths and great views. Lots of history and ecology along the way. Parking is 2€/hour and entry is 4€/person. DONT TAKE THE CASTLE DETOUR, long, difficult and underwhelming.

It is an easy walking activity and very interesting cave. Not so big, so don’t plan hours. We could manage it in 1 hour. You can park next to the bridge in a Parking lot, 1 h = 2€. You need to buy the parking ticket directly from the automata. We arrived around 10 am, it was not busy.

Beautiful, easy hike that’s great for young kids. There’s 2 restaurants near the trail and parking is easy to navigate. The trail is about 1.5 miles

nice little 1km hike through the caves / along the creek. Walking slow and seeing everything you can finish in 20/30min. 4 euros a person and 2 euro per hour for parking is a little much but it’s a decent walk / attraction

Very beautiful views in cave, for me it's was amazing for only 4 euro have to visit it 😀

Nice park to wander around, check out the cheese maturing in the cave along with the rest of the caves and waterfalls. The mill down the path still turning the grinder with water power is neat and there is a great panorama view of the valley and the scenic church tower if you climb to the upper cave and proceed a little down the path. The restaurant is a neat option. We did not eat there. There is also a caffe at the visitors center on the way in. If you try and get all the paths and the elevated veiw it could be about 1.5 hour stop. Parking can be a little difficult to find as there are several small lots sprinkled around the park. Worth a stop if you are in the area.

I was surprise that i could chilled there and slept for about 2h on the "liegenstuhl with sonnenschrim" without getting charged for the place.. It was so relaxing with the sound of the wave, summer Breeze & giggles from the kids who were playing there n having fun.it has beach sevice guys to control everything there or if u need help. The beach is nice, clean, and even have closet room and shower. But the toilet was dirty and one of the cleaning service was so rude.

Soooo beautiful and long beach with nice sand, warm water. Price 24 euros for an umbrella and 3 chairs, in July 2025.

Water quality is good anway its not for snorchling, due to sand visibility in water is low. Beach is clean and fully equipped with important facilities like bar, toilet, place for rest, showers. Like that is forbiden to smoke on beach, anyway you have option to smoke in dedicated places. Issue for me was that this beach is duting season very overcrowded with milions of people, anway in water is enough placem acces to wate is very good for kids, slowly invreasing depth of water. Safety included from beach staff.Lot of guys is selling stuf on beach and yes is warmy here during the season 🙂

Great location, quite large, family friendly, beautiful sea. Lots of restaurants in town, fantastic italian ice cream.

Dirty shallow water. You always have to walk a Long distance to reach any point you need. Africans trying to sell some goods of unknown quality.. I have seen much prettier places to spend holidays. Sorry

Really well-organized beach. I like the system where resort guests have a reserved chair and umbrella for the entire stay. Good Job!!

I just passing Bibione and want to get fast swim, well the water is dirty because of sand that is obvious, so no snorchling. The prices for sun beds are crazy 😀. I guess is good place for family with the Kids.

A beautiful square in Piran, with plenty of cafes, restaurants and cute shops around the square. A very large area where children can play safely with a view of the harbor and the sea and the surrounding historical buildings of the old town of Piran. The true spirit of a coastal town!

Gorgeous square, perfect to explore and enjoy the sunshine. Enjoy the cafes and restaurants or explore the cobbled picturesque streets.

Tartini Square (Slovene: Tartinijev trg) is the largest and main town square in Piran, Slovenia. It is named after the famous violinist and composer Giuseppe Tartini, who was born in Piran. The square is a vibrant pedestrian area, surrounded by historic buildings. It serves as a social and cultural hub of Piran, hosting concerts and events, with cafes, restaurants, and shops around its perimeter. The design provides scenic views of the Adriatic Sea and the surrounding hills.

Lovely square with plenty of free parking for motorbikes. The harbour was also very beautiful, sadly in motorbike clothing and 40 degree heat, we didn't stay long but would love to revisit one-day.

Tartini's square in the City of Piran, Slovenia, is a beautiful example of Mediterranean city urban planning that nailed it. People of all ages enjoy spending time there. It is vibrant all day long. Great views - to the marina, the sea, surrounding buildings, monument of Tartini, shops, caffees and restaurants, a lot of benches to just sit and relax while you get amused just by looking at people of all ages doing their thing. It is a real jam for photographers and a great place to make a tone of different selfies.

I had the baklava ice cream and hands down it was the best ice cream I've ever tasted - my partner agreed and he is an ice cream fanatic! Highly recommend, amazing ice cream and lovely friendly service too.

Nothing special. A square with some caffees and restaurants. Okay view, so if you are around it's worth a visit, but I wouldnt travel there just for this purpose.

A cradle of our faith for my country. From here the misionary work went out to the east. Glorious holly place, with a lot of history, beautiful mosaics and old architecture. Cript is amazing with lot of relics.

One of the most important church seats in this part of Italy, also for Slovenia, Austria and Croatia. Basilica is build on the 1. century Roman mosaics, that were covered in 4. century by other level of mosaics. On top of those two layers of mosaics the present church was built. The Bell tower dated from 11. century. The three naval church has leather patriarchal seat. The crypt is full of frescos from life of Jesus and the life of saint Hermagoras and saint Fortunatus. You can admire early and fine early Christian mosaics. I liked the most the one with a turtle and the big one that represents sea with boats and sailers.

The Basilica of Aquileia is a treasure that everyone should visit. The mosaic floor is absolutely stunning, and the space around the Basilica is pleasant and relaxing. The frescoed crypt is also fantastic! Absolutely recommended when passing through the FVG region!

The Basilica is a beautiful piece of architecture. Majestic with a magnificent mosaic floor and ornate wooden roof. Also fantastic is the visit to the archaeological dig area below the Basilica where it is possible to see the early roman mosaic dating back to the first century a.d. The area surrounding the Basilica is also very interesting and kept in order.

Fascinating early Christian basilica. Floor mosaics back to the 5th C.

One of the most beautiful churches ever!

Italy is a country of historical beauties and this Cattedrale is undoubtedly one of them. As soon as one enters the building is immediately overwhelmed by history: the view of the soffit and of the floors, covered by mosaics, is truly breathtaking. When admiring this church you can “touch” the architectural, engineering and artistic ability of our ancestors: these treasures have withstood over a millennium (even more, when considering the original layers dating from B.C.). The building basement is a surprise of mosaics and there it’s really astonishing how, through small tiles, those artists were able to depict amazing subjects, such as animals, faces and various objects. Just a small suggestion: the descriptions of the mosaics made on the handrails, has it is done, is not a very clever solutions, since most of the writings have gone.
