Transport
Arriving to Venice from airport
Venice´s Marco Polo Airport has direct flights from all of Europe´s major cities. In the airport are all the usual facilities as well as many car hire companies, a left luggage area, bureau de change and tourist information desk. There are many ways to get from the airport to the historic centre of Venice:
TAXI
Taking about 15 minutes from the airport to the Piazzale Roma in the Santa Croce sestieri, the taxi costs about 24 euro and there is a taxi rank outside the arrivals hall.
BUS
Coloured orange, the ACTV bus is part of the public transport system - bus number 5 - and obviously stops several times before reaching Piazzale Roma, taking about 30 minutes. Each passenger costs 77 euro cents, as does each suitcase. These buses also leave to the right of the arrivals hall.
BOAT
Alilaguna 2 operates between 11:35 and 16:35, calling at Fondamente Nuove and San Marco and it take an hour and ten minutes to reach Zattere.
WATER TAXI
By far the easiest and most expensive way to get into the city, though it only take 30 minutes to get to the heart of the historic city. The usual fare is around 50 euro, but make sure to agree the fare before getting on board - as these taxi have no meters.
Arriving to Venice by car
Once near the city look for the Ponte della Liberta, follow the signs for Venice and eventually come to Piazzale Roma. HOwever, there is a distinct lack of parking places and they are expensive. Alternatively park in Mestre and use public transport to get into Venice itself.
Arriving to Venice by train
Getting to Venice By Train Venice´s only railway station is that of Santa Lucia, a modern building in the Cannaregio sestieri - in the west of the city. In the station are a bank, information office, restaurant and left luggage - both lockers and a traditional left luggage hall. Right outside the exit is the Grand Canal, here are many "vaporetto" water buses, as well as water taxis.
