would have been lost in the maze that is venice without the use of this transport and guide. took us to within 100 yards of our hotel. would use them againé
We were met at the scheduled time after our cruise. The hostess took us to the dock where we boarded our water taxi, which took us directly to our hotel. Very easy transfer.
EXCELLENT...MADE ANY TRANSFER SIMPLE AND EASY
We were grateful we'd booked this service as it was pandemonium with about seven cruise ships arriving around the same time and everyone looking for transport. The guide met us at the ship, took us to the taxi dock and arranged for us to board our particular taxi.
Nora was very helpful and knowledgeable and we appreciated all her advice and help.
This was quite expensive but well worth it. Watching all the water taxi's come into port was good fun. We had our taxi to ourselves and it took about 20 minutes to get to our hotel. Best way to enter Venice if you can afford it.
Best idea we had to get to our hotel. Door to door service a must in Venice
We were greeted by a very friendly hostess, about five minutes before our scheduled meet time. She prepared us for our 20 minute walk from the cruise terminal to the departure pier. She also assisted with our luggage. We asked about directions to our hotel, once we reached St. Mark's Square and she drew a map for us, explaining the location in good detail. Our hostess waited with us until our water taxi arrived and made certain that we were on board, before leaving us. The water taxi pilot was very polite. He opened the overhead window and invited us to enjoy the sites as we made our way to the pier. The water taxi was very clean. It was a very easy connection to make.
This was the best thing i did, i was a little concerned because we were off the ship earlier then expected and the guide was not there but she showed up at actually 9:30 which was the time I had put and it made it so much easier to get to our hotel. Thanks
Our guide was informative and was there in a timely manner
The guide was waiting for us when we disembarked. from our ship and took us to wait for the water taxi. We arrived at St Marks ok but guide had problems getting us to our hotel .She took us out of the way and up and down stairs that were not necessary especially with luggage.but we did arrive there.
WE ARRIVED A LITTLE EARLY AND THE GUIDE WAS A LITTLE LATE,BUT A SMOOTH TRANSFER IN AN UNFAMILIAR CITY WAS VERY WORTH THE MONEY THE WATER TAXI WAS A FABULOUS EXPERIENCE
This was not a good service in November when the departure terminal was not busy and the water taxi's were readily available. It is about 2 times the cost of a standard water taxi. The only reason to use it would be in VERY high season and you want to avoid a long wait. The persons from our cruise who used the standard taxi's got them sooner and spent half as much.
Kind of scary. Our taxi had broken down and we were unsure if we would make our plane. We finally got a hold of our onsite contact and another taxi was sent to us about 1/2 hr later than scheduled. Then we made two other stops. We rushed into the airport and did make our plane. They had my cell phone but we never got a call to explain that they were on their way to pick us up.
