Being an italian, hearing of it as "Venice" seems a bit inappropriate. It's not worth a visit, but if you happen to pass by and it is sunny... a very nice place to rest a while: water, swans, boats and a tiny but nice park with gardens. More

Although Little Venice is mentioned in a few London travel guides, only very few tourists actually make it there. It's worth a visit though - very different from Central London: a quiet, beautiful spot. Great starting point for a walk along Great Union Canal. More

I live in west London so I thought I should write a little about this area which is somewhere I walk around when I need to get out for a little exercise! In some ways I have to say there is nothing very exceptional about the area and perhaps that is why some visitors have written poor reviews because they... More

I would say to go the real Venice, this was disappointing, all you are doing is travelling up a canal that is between the backs of houses of very rich people that you can't even see as you are on a lower level. there are a load of ramshackle barges too, but who cares More

We took the boat trip from Camden Lock along the Regents Canal to Little Venice, A lovely little trip, well worth it, but nothing to see at all when you arrived at Little Venice, a bit of a let down. When you arrive, get on the No 6 Bus back to the West End, there's lots to see - sit... More

Little Venice is well worth a visit to exprience what I have found to be a really nice area of London. The area is accessed on the Bakerloo line via Warwick Park and a short stroll to Little Venice and the Regent's Canal. I would recommend a trip on a canal cruise up to Camden which is reasonably priced and... More
