Take a Gondola Ride
At the Venetian Resort, you can take a romantic gondola ride down the Grand Canal with your partner. The gondolier will serenade you with Italian love songs as you float beneath bridges and balconies. You can take an outdoor ride past the Grand Canal Shoppes, or you can enjoy an indoor ride. At 9:50 a.m. and 4:20 p.m. every day, you can see the Gondolier March. The gondoliers sing together as they march along the indoor canal.
The indoor ride is open on most days from 10 a.m. to 11 p.m., and you can visit until midnight on Friday and Saturday. The outdoor ride is open every day from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.
Explore the Bellagio
The Bellagio is an elegant resort inspired by Lake Como in Italy. It has a variety of romantic attractions, and it’s a great place for you and your spouse to explore. Outside, you can see the Fountains of Bellagio. This beautiful light and water show happens every half hour on weekdays from 3 to 7 p.m.
You can see it every 15 minutes until midnight, and on holidays and weekends, the fountain starts at noon. This spectacular display is free, and it’s different every time. It covers 1,000 square feet, and jets of water can reach up to 460 feet in the air.
After you see the fountain, go inside and check out the Bellagio Conservatory and Botanical Garden. It covers 14,000 square feet, and it has several gazebos, bridges, and ponds as well. The display changes with every season, and a 120-person horticultural staff maintains it. It contains tens of thousands of trees, flowers, and plants, and its beautiful, domed glass ceiling has sculpted metal beams with unique floral patterns. They have an eye-catching green color that’s similar to the Statue of Liberty, and they’re made from verdigris or oxidized copper. You can also see huge topiaries and sculptures.
The Giardini Garden Store displays garden-oriented gifts, and you can see the Lunar New Year display until March 5. The conservatory is open 24 hours per day. It’s right next to the resort’s lobby, and admission is free.
