This paper deals with the problem of constructing a flight scheme to Venus, in which a spacecraft flying to the planet after a gravity assist maneuver and transition to a resonant orbit in order to re-encounter with Venus, makes a passage of a minor celestial body. The 117 candidate asteroids from the NASA JPL catalogue, whose diameter exceeds 1 km, were selected. The flight trajectories which meet the criteria of impulse-free both flyby Venus and asteroid, and the subsequent landing on the surface of Venus were found within the interval of launch dates from 2029 to 2050. The trajectory of the spacecraft flight from the Earth to Venus including flyby of Venus and asteroids with a subsequent landing on the surface of Venus was analyzed.
