We have only a day and a half in Venice as a stop on our way from Slovenia to Montreaux. I know it is a short time to dedicate but we are meeting up with friends in Switzerland and have decided to dedicate a large portion of our trip to that (6 days). We are staying near the Rialto bridge at Ego Residence hotel and have (thanks to tips we received here) pre booked Piazzale Roma for parking as well as vaporetto service to hotel. Looking for thoughts about how to best use our time in Venice. My only must do (although cliche) is a gondola ride. Other than that we are looking for suggestions.
Also if anyone has been to the Montreaux jazz fest I'd love to hear your thoughts. Staying at Eurotel Montreaux. We will also be in Zermatt for 3 days and 1 day at lake Lucerne. Love and tips you may have. Thanks!!
