I can get a cheaper rental car in the city of Bassano ($20 a day thru a friend), whereas at Venice airport is $33/day.
What is the cheapest cost to travel to the city (will get a local address soon) from Venice airport.
My friend just said it was costly, hate to trouble him too much more. My flight leaves 6am on a weekday, hate to ask him to give me a ride to the airport.
costly? if you take a cab, sure.
You can anyway take a bus ( http://www.veniceairport.it/aeroporto.jhtml?view=autobus&lan=en ) to Venezia-Mestre train station.
There is a local (=slow) but direct train to Bassano del Grappa (about 1h:20m). See timetable on www.trenitalia.com

Pammys... Hard to help you with the little you say, and with a blank profile.
I assume you will fly to Italy. Where will you land.. At wich time, etc. etc...
Even age and sex can change the suggestion... That is why most of us put all those info inti our profiles

Piazza Liberta (Liberty Square) is the heart of Bassano del Grappa, here stands the magnificent Church of San Giovanni Battista, the statue of St. Bassiano, and very pitoresque Bottega del Pane, the oldest baker shop in the town, which is situated right on the corner of Piazzotto Montevecchio and the main square.
My grandfather was a great Alpines. He suffered a lot things of war, he saw many cruel things, he won death many times, he saved a lot of people, but not his brother, whom desperately took on his shoulder from Albania to Italy, but he died during the travel in Istria....
Shame to Italy which doesn't have gratitude to this army.
here one of the songs of these valorous men the ALPINES: GLI ALPINI.
Sul Ponte di Bassano
Eccole che riva
ste bele moscardine
son fresche e verdoline
colori no le ghe n'ha.
Colori no ghe n'avemo
e gnanca no ghe ne serchemo
ma un canto noi ti faremo
al pointe de Bassan.
Sul ponte di Bassano
là ci darem la mano
là ci darem la mano
e un bacin d'amor.
Per un bacin d'amore
successer tanti guai
ah no credeva mai
doverti abbandonar.
Doverti abbandonare
volerti tanto bene
Queste son le catene
che m'incatena il cuor.
Che m'incatena il cuore
che m'incatena il pianto.
Averti tanto amato
doverti da lasciar.
Che m'incatena il cuore
che m'incatena a vita.
Ahimè che son tradita
per un bacin d'amor
E' morto un Alpino
E' morto un Alpin, sulla montagna
Ritornava dal confin dopo la guerra:
ma quando l'Alpin l'è cascà in terra
fu lì un angel del Trentin
che ghe diseva:
" O bell'alpino, alla tua casetta
manda un saluto: io l' porterò"
Allora l'Alpin l'ha verti i oci,
ghe parea che l'angiol fosse lì vicino:
"Angel del cielo, l'ultimo mio baso
portemel caldo al mio tesor,
portemel caldo al mio amore."
E' morto un Alpino
If you walk from the Old Bridge in direction of the centre, before you leave the wooden bridge you can see, on your right, lot of shots on the wall. These shots are to remember a battle in may 1809 - as reported from a plate - between French and Austrian and I have to admit I don't know much about.
But I show you this to remember the work of the poor house-painters that every time have to put cement taking care a lot :P
The San Donato Church was built in 1208. It is claimed that St Francis of Assisi and St Anthony of Padua both stayed here during the third decade of the 13th century. The church was a hospital, run by Benedictine nuns in the 14th century, then a Fransican monastery during the 15th century. The church was restored in 1900, including work being done on the cell which was used by the two saints.
This small square is actually in repairing, but it quite finished. It's a beautiful square with some ancient buildings, in particular the house Michieli-Bonato.
If I'm not in mistake (I will check next time), you can not visit inside it :/
