Venice airport water taxi and ground transportation

Venice Marco Polo Airport (VCE) is the main airport that serves the area of Venice. It is the fourth-busiest airport in Italy with 11 million annual passengers, and it primarily serves low-cost airlines like Wizz Air and Ryanair.

As the city centre is pedestrianised and most of the traffic is by water, bus transportation is limited. Regular buses run from Venice Airport to Piazzale Roma and Mestre bus station. Water buses depart at the airport dock and serve Venice and the main islands Murano, Lido and Burano.

Regular Venice airport taxis can take you no further than Piazzale Roma. Next to it are the Venice railway station and Venice Cruise Port, and you can take a taxi straight from the airport. However, if your hotel can be accessed only by water, you should take a Venice water taxi.

We offer affordable and reliable airport transfers from Marco Polo to Mestre, Padova, Camping Union Lido, St Lucia Train Station and many other locations. You can pre-book your private water taxi from Venice Airport to Venice City hotel, Venice Lido and the Venice Cruise Terminal with City Airport Taxis.

Railway, bus and Venice water taxi transportation

Venice has six areas: Cannaregio, San Marco, Castello, Santa Croce, San Polo and the Dorsoduro. Cars are banned, so the only way to get around the city is by foot or water.

The primary public transportation in Venice is the public boat Vaporetto. Line 1 starts near the train station and goes along the Grand Canal. It makes many stops to get a good overview of the city. There are also many water taxis available, but getting one can be difficult.

Two railway stations serve Venice: Venice Santa Lucia station and Venice Mestre (on the mainland, convenient for connections to Milan, Verona, and other Italian cities). Busitalia Sita Nord buses regularly connect Venice Airport to the city of Padova. Terravision operates some additional buses.

The Venice Cruise Terminal consists of two main areas: the Marittima basin, which handles the larger ships, and the San Basilio pier, which is just around Giudecca Canal. We can always arrange a private transfer from Venice Cruise Port for you quickly and efficiently. You can book the service online before your arrival.
