The Rialto Market is another of Venice’s must-see tourist attractions. The market is located alongside the Grand Canal, to the north-west of the Rialto Bridge.

It may surprise you to know that in Italy most locals still visit their fresh produce market every day; meals are planned according to what fresh seasonal produce is available on the day. Venice is no exception and this massive market is literally heaving with piles of artistically displayed fresh fruit and vegetables as well as meats, cheeses and fish. In fact, the aromas from the fish market (Pescaria) can be detected from some distance away. Closer observation reveals huge mounds of still-wriggling fish and sea food of every kind. Once again, a guided tour will add great value to your visit.
