Is 1 night enough for Venice?

You see, if you want to see all of the major attractions in the space of a day, then it's definitely possible, though your day will be very crammed! What is this? However, if you want to see the place without the crowds, then it's better to stay overnight, so that you can enjoy Venice without the day trippers.

I love Venice and always recommend staying at least three full days in the city to enjoy it. However, sometimes you don't have that time and, no matter how much you may want to stay longer, you can only take a day trip to Venice, with less than a full day to see it all. If this is you, you're in the right place!

Since bars don't stay open very late, and the cicchetti selection is best early, start your evening by 6 p.m. By 10 p.m., restaurants are winding down; by 11 p.m., many bars are closing — and by midnight, the city is shut tight.
