What to do while in Venice

There are tons of things to see and do during your trip to Venice. You’ll want to check out many of the attractions on the main island, like Saint Mark’s Basilica, the Grand Canal and the Doge’s Palace. While there are no cars allowed on the island of Venice, you’ll most likely be staying on the mainland, so it will be convenient to use your car to park near the bridge and walk over. You’ll also want to check out Villa Foscari, which is just a short drive south of Venice.

Venice is also quite lively during the winter months. Venice is world-famous for its Carnevale celebration which takes place each winter before the start of Lent. You’ll also find beautiful ice rinks set up around the city for visitors and locals to enjoy.

The way to Sixt

All over the Sixt service was great, but the most amazing thing was the car itself. It was just what we wanted to travel the one way trip from Venice to Rome. It was an amazing car, the ultimate driving machine the BMW 750d, with only 15,000 Ins on it. A beautiful car.

Good front desk staff. Manager Cristiano was very attentive. Car was upgraded to a station wagon in consideration of our luggage. Cristiano helped us to reserve the upgraded car before our arrival. I have travelled a lot but never been treated so well at a car rental booth. Location is right at the water taxi dock at Piazzale Roma of Venice (train station area) Highly recommended!

We has the actual date mistaken, so we went to the Rent-A-Car a 24h after the previously assigned hour. Miss araújo, at the Venice office, was very nice and helpful, very professional and did everything in her power to make sure everything went right for us, and it did. Thanks for everything

Good price for vehicles. Piazzale Roma is hectic though, and finding a spot to return your Vehicle is a matter of pure luck (of which I must have had plenty). Attendants were helpful and agreeable. I’d rent from them again.

The staff is very friendly and helpful. The prices are good. The pick-up and drop-off processes took a few minutes. To find a spot on the parking lot was difficult though. I ended up parking in the driveway in front of the police station because I was in a rush. The lady from Sixt then helped me to improve my parking position.
