How to reach us
Vicenza is strategically located in the «heart» of the Veneto, a marvellous region rich in architectural heritages, and the hub of the Italian North-East territory. Sandwiched between the two popular cities of Venice (Venezia) and Verona, Vicenza is near to other interesting regional localities: Padua (Padova), Bassano del Grappa, Treviso, Cortina (Dolomite / Alps), Jesolo and Bibione (beaches), Garda Lake.
There are two main airports near Vicenza, where all major companies operate for both national and international scheduled flights:
- Venezia (VCE – Venice Marco Polo Airport)
- Verona (VRN – Verona Valerio Catullo Airport).
- At Treviso (TSF – Venezia Treviso Airport) operate low cost flights (Germanwings, Ryanair, Transavia, Tuifly etc.).
From all these airports it is possible to get to Vicenza in 90 minutes by train after short coach links. Pay attention because it might be difficult to reach Vicenza by train after 9:00 p.m.
Eurocultura suggests to book flights to one of the previous airports.

Various low cost companies operate also at Milano Linate (LIN – approximately 3 hours travel to Vicenza) and Milano Orio al Serio-Bergamo (BGY – approximately 3 to 5 hours travel to Vicenza, not easy connected).
