Hi !
Our trip is near and we are getting excited !
Quick summary :
Arrival july 8 in rome (5 nights)
July 13 Florence (and daytrip to Siena) (4 nights,)
July 17 Venice (3 nights)
july 20 flight back to Montreal
My wife have a friend who lives in Padova. They propose us that: Leave Florence around 8:30 (we already have our train ticket for Venice, so we would get out at Padova train station), they get us by car at train sataion around 10:30. We stay for 3 hours in center of Padova, get some quick bites. In the afternoon they take us to the Colli (???) and enjouy a good meal with nice view (they say), ans around 19:00 they get us back to train station so we can go in Venice. In the evening we take posession of our airbnb, and we will be too tired to do anything I guess....
In venice we have an Airbnb in cannaregio (near calle pistor, Anconeta bridge).
Questions:
1) What do you think of that plan ?
2) Is there many trains between Padova and Venice ?
3) With our Airbnb location would we need a vaporetto pass ?
4) Any good restaurants recommandation not too far from our lodging ?
With that plan i'm thinking we should have add a night in Venice and cut one from Florence, but it's too late. We cant add any day to our lodging in Venice (it's full) and remove a night from Florence would cost us money, so we will have to stick with it.
Big thanks !
