Venice Bike Hopping Tour: Lido & Pellestrina

Let's go island hopping by bike along the Venetian lagoon, from the elegant Lido to the colorful fishing villages of Pellestrina and beyond.

Our adventure begins on Lido, where you’ll cycle past Belle Époque hotels, golden beaches, and markets where locals sip Prosecco. We’ll ride through Malamocco — a quiet, pastel-colored village that feels like a miniature Venice — then continue through a nature reserve to a scenic lighthouse. If you like, we can stop at Alberoni beach for a relaxing swim or a refreshing drink.

A short ferry ride takes us to Pellestrina, a long, narrow island where time seems to stand still. We’ll pedal through charming fishing hamlets strung along the waterfront, with their colorful houses and boats bobbing in the canals.

The route can extend all the way to Chioggia — often called "Little Venice" — a bustling fishing town full of life and local flavor.

From there, you can choose whether to ride back the same way or return to Lido by ferry via the mainland, enjoying unforgettable views of Venice from the water as we sail past St. Mark’s Square.

This private tour is flexible and can be customized based on your interests and stamina. It's perfect for travelers who want to explore authentic, off-the-beaten-path Venice — by bike.
