3 live collabsTour operators, hotels and brands across Venice — every brand running a creator program right now.
Venice is a goldmine if you focus on high-quality lifestyle, food, and aesthetic travel content. While many creators struggle with the tourist crowds, brands here are looking for partners who can capture the quiet corners and authentic culinary experiences that most travelers miss. If your feed leans toward slow travel or luxury-adjacent city guides, you will find plenty of traction here.
Most partners in the city, like Eating Europe for food tours or Generator Hostels for stays, value high-intent traffic and visual storytelling over massive follower counts. Expect a mix of comped experiences, media stays, and occasional affiliate-based revenue. Before reaching out, make sure your media kit highlights how you plan to capture the city without just recycling the standard St. Mark’s Square shots.
Not necessarily. Brands like Generator Hostels value engagement and high-quality photography that they can repurpose, so a mid-tier creator with a strong aesthetic often has a better shot than a massive account with low engagement.
Focus on the 'experience' angle. Eating Europe wants creators who can document the story behind the food, not just someone who will take a quick photo of a plate. Pitch a reel that highlights the history or the artisan behind the tour.
Most opportunities for boutique hotels and tour operators start as media stays or comped experiences. Once you’ve established a track record of delivering high-quality assets, it becomes much easier to negotiate a flat fee for future campaigns.
Brands are desperate for coverage during the shoulder season (November–March). You are significantly more likely to get a 'yes' when you offer to promote their services during their quieter months.
Aim for at least 6 to 8 weeks out. Since logistics in Venice are complex, brands need time to coordinate with their local teams and approve your content plan.
