Chiesa di San Giorgio dei Greci
Campanile di San Giorgio dei Greci, or the 'leaning clocktower', was designed by Simone Sorella and completed in 1592. It apparently started tilting from the beginning of its construction. Like its adjoining church, the bell tower was built by and for the Greek community in Venice, primarily sailors and merchants. You will also have the chance to see the Sanctuary of St.Lucy.
30 minutes here
Strada Nova
The widest street in Venice. The entire route, which is made up of wide streets connected by bridges, was created during the 19th century to create rapid pedestrian access between Rialto and the railway station, demolishing the buildings that would otherwise delimit a long tortuous path between narrow streets.
30 minutes here
Ponte di Rialto
The Rialto bridge is the oldest of the four bridges spanning the Grand Canal in Venice. It is famous for both its architecture and its history. For years it was the hub of Venice's economy.
30 minutes here
Piazza San Marco
St. Mark's square is the principal public square in Venice and is one of the most fascinating squares in the world, so much so that Napoleon Bonaparte defined it as "the most beautiful hall in Europe". The Patriarchal Cathedral Basilica of Saint Mark, commonly known as St Mark's Basilica, is the cathedral church of the Patriarchate of Venice. The interior of the domes, the vaults, and the upper walls were slowly covered with gold-ground mosaics depicting saints, prophets, and biblical scenes.
30 minutes here
Ponte dei Sospiri
Called the Bridge of Sighs by locals, this emblematic monument of Venice was built in the 1600s and connects the Doge's Palace with the historic prison on the other side of the canal. It was given this name because tradition has it that, at the time of the Serenissima, the prisoners, crossing it, sighed at the prospect of seeing the outside world for the last time.
30 minutes here
Chiesa di San Zaccaria
The Church of San Zaccaria is a 15th-century former monastic church in central Venice. It is a large edifice, located in the Campo San Zaccaria. The present church was built between 1458 and 1515. The facade is a harmonious Venetian mixture of late-Gothic and Renaissance styles.
30 minutes here
Ponte dell'Accademia
The Ponte dell'Accademia is one of only four bridges to span the Grand Canal in Venice. It crosses near the southern end of the canal, and is named for the Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia.
30 minutes here
Squero di San Trovaso
The squero of San Trovaso is one of the oldest and most famous Venetian squeros. The squero is the classic shipyard where small-sized boats such as gondolas are repaired. Have a peek at how a gondola is made or repaired!
30 minutes here
Campo San Pantalon
Reach the beautiful Campo San Pantalon to admire the beautiful painting by Banksy commonly referred to as "the shipwrecked/migrant child".
30 minutes here
Campo Santa Margherita

Loved the train ride from...
Loved the train ride from Rome to Venice and back. Our guide was very personable. I was raised that if you don’t have anything nice to say - don’t say anything so I won’t.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your review. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the train journey between Rome and Venice and that you found your guide personable and enjoyable to spend time with. We are naturally surprised by the 1-star rating, as the comments provided mention positive aspects of the experience. We always welcome constructive feedback and would have appreciated the opportunity to understand what specifically did not meet your expectations. Thank you for joining our tour, and we wish you all the best in your future travels.

Was fun
This was a fun excursion! However, the “Venice Entry fee” is not included. We had to pay 10€ each when we arrived. The tour itself is only 3 hours. We were gifted this tour, so i am appreciative, however i think they charge too much considering the tour is only 3 hours. I understand the train ticket to/from rome is included but think the tour could be a little longer.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your feedback. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed the excursion 😊 The Venice access fee is normally included for all our customers, so there may unfortunately have been an oversight on our side in sending the payment in advance, and we sincerely apologize for this inconvenience. Regarding the tour duration, we are a bit surprised by the comment about only 3 hours, as the total time spent in Venice was around 6 hours, including guided time and free time to explore the city independently before returning to Rome. Thank you again for your feedback, as it helps us improve our service.

Why this scores 54
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Tour from Rome Venice Full Day Tour by Train: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rome.
How much does Private Tour from Rome Venice Full Day Tour by Train cost?
+
Prices start at $235 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Rome usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Tour from Rome Venice Full Day Tour by Train take?
+
Plan for about 15 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Rome is not rushed.
Is Private Tour from Rome Venice Full Day Tour by Train worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (2.5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Rome, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour from Rome Venice Full Day Tour by Train?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Tour from Rome Venice Full Day Tour by Train suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 15-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Tour from Rome Venice Full Day Tour by Train?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Rome can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Rome and add a light layer if any part of the 15-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Tour from Rome Venice Full Day Tour by Train start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Rome within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Rome?
+
Rome runs on skip-the-line access. The Colosseum underground, the Vatican before opening, and the catacombs south of the walls all require a licensed operator, and the price gap between the good ones and the rest is smaller than you would expect. We rank by guide credentials, group size and how reliably the promised access actually materialises. On Outty we rank every Rome experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Rome Pasta and Tiramisu Class: Ravioli, Fettuccine & Fine Wine 5*, Pasta Making & Wine Tasting with Dinner in Frascati from Rome, Rome: Pizza & Tiramisu or Gelato Class with Flowing Fine Wine 5*. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Rome?
+
April, May, September and October. August is hot and half the city is shut. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Rome?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
