Padua adheres to the Regional Day of River Tourism offering tours along the navigable canals!
Officially established by the Region of Veneto, the second edition of the Regional Day of River Tourism will take place on Saturday, April 18 and Sunday, April 19, 2026.
The project was born with the explicit intention of recognizing, enhancing, and promoting river tourism, supporting communities. Promoting river tourism means focusing on a sustainable tourist offer in which the attraction is based on the heritage of landscape, natural, historical, cultural, productive, sports, and food and wine resources that characterize the riverside communities.
