Venice Transport
|
|
Cars, scooters and bicycles are not allowed in the city. |
|
By water buses (vaporetti) |
Waterbuses are operated by ACTV and have about a dozen
lines around the city. Transit maps are available at the
tourist office and in most ACTV stations. Do keep in
mind that the waterbuses travel in the Grand Canal and
in the outskirts, so it is easier to get to small canals
on foot.

|
By taxis |
Water taxis (Taxi acquel) charge the highest taxi fees
in Europe. A short seven minutes drive will cost
approximately 14€. It is very difficult to catch a water
taxi,.

|
By Gondola |
Taking a gondola ride in Venice is extremely romantic
and a true Venetian experience, but a gondola ride is
very expensive. Gondolas depart from Piazzale Roma, St.
Mark’s Square, the train station and the Rialto.
