Expect significant crowds throughout Venice, particularly in popular areas like St. Mark’s Square and Rialto Bridge, as it’s a prime vacation month.

Leverage the long daylight hours by starting your days early to visit major attractions like Doge’s Palace and St. Mark’s Basilica, ideally with pre-booked skip-the-line tickets. A gondola ride in the early morning or late evening can be more pleasant due to cooler temperatures and fewer crowds. Consider a vaporetto ride along the Grand Canal for scenic views.
