Educational & Cultural Holidays in Venice Italy

A traditional school trip favourite on the Venetian coast, Lido di Jesolo is a popular seaside resort just an hour or so from the wonderful sights of Venice. There is a lovely long wide sandy beach, plenty of local activities, shops, ice-cream parlours and an amusement arcade.

Destination Guide

Jesolo is a lively resort with a fantastic sandy beach. The busy strip along the seafront is lined with shops and bars. You’ll find plenty of places to buy some pizza too. The Aqualandia water park (high season only) is nearby and there is crazy golf and tennis available too. An evening out to enjoy some ten pin bowling is a 30 minute coach journey from the resort.

Educational Visit

With so many varied and interesting educational and cultural possibilities in the region, we will build a tailor-made tour programme and itinerary to meet with your requirements and priorities. We can organise opportunities to develop language skills and to improve historical and artistic awareness.

It’s easy to immerse yourselves in the culture and history of the Veneto region. A day trip to Venice is a must of course. Here you can experience the picture-postcard sights of this incredible city. Take a boat trip along the Grand Canal - or even a private gondola – and see St Mark’s Square, the Basilica and the Rialto Bridge. Or enjoy the masterpieces in the Peggy Guggenheim Museum. Visit the sights of Verona including the Roman Arena and the balcony made famous from Romeo and Juliet. What’s more, we can organise cookery classes, pasta making and wine tasting for a real taste of the local culture and cuisine.

Excursions

Aqualandia waterpark near Jesolo is always fun (high season only) and there are loads of beach games and leisure activities to enjoy, ensuring a good time for everyone, when you need a break from the sights.

Accommodation

We use a selection of typical Italian 2 and 3 star hotels including the popular Hotel Da Bepi. The hotel is located in the centre of the resort, and is just 100m from the beach. Good local food is provided in the hotel’s adjacent pizzeria restaurant.
