Where possible, the boat will alter its route to allow you to get off at the nearest stop to your hotel. Read the Itinerary for a list of stops.

Viator made our transfer...

joyesilverman, Jan 2025

Viator made our transfer very easy and all who we met were very kind and professional! Thank you very much!

Exciting and fun.

Bill_M, Jan 2025

The water was rough and some passengers looked frightened, but the driver was so experienced he put the group at ease. My 83 but have spent a lot of time on boats. If I hadn’t I not sure I would have done it. Not easy getting on and off. Fun for me.

Convenient, efficient airport transfer

Taylor_S, Dec 2024

Arriving late evening with my wife and toddler, we wanted to get to our hotel as quickly as possible to get our child to sleep. The airport signs easily directed us to the water transport location and the desk was easy to find. The staff spoke excellent English and explained the process clearly, including by providing a map for getting from the dropoff point to our hotel. We waited about fifteen minutes before going to our boat, shared with three other groups. The boat driver was helpful and clear, and even suggested stopping at a different dock not normally used to get us to our hotel a little faster. For being much cheaper than a dedicated, not-shared boat, I can't think of anything to make the experience better.

Terrible

Jimmy_A, Dec 2024

Don't book shared rides. We were not explained we had to wait for people. We wait 40 mimutes for others to arrive.

Too many people in such a small taxi.

Daniel_O, Dec 2024

The boat is very small and we had way too many people crammed into such a small boat. After such a long flight from Houston to Venice with luggage I would not recommend the group taxi. Everyone was kind but it was just too packed.

Best way to arrive in Venice!

Roger_E, Dec 2024

What a great way to arrive in Venice. The trip took about 45 minutes and dropped us off a couple of minutes’ walk to our hotel near Piazza San Marco. Highly recommended!

Good service

Sarah_B, Dec 2024

Straightforward to book and very good staff at the airport. Would certainly recommend this as an easy way to get to Venice from the airport.

Great way to travel.

Kevin_F, Dec 2024

Operator were great, managed all the timing and pick up/drop off really well. A great experience as we did there and back.

Perfect! Quick and...

Vanessa_F, Dec 2024

Perfect! Quick and reasonable price. It was the perfect way to get from the airport to my hotel on the Grand Canal.

Good Experience

Susan_L, Dec 2024

They knew our flight was delayed and were ready for our arrival! Meant a lot to us that we didn't have to wait!

Scenic water transfer

Margaret_R, Nov 2024

Difficulties in finding where to redeem voucher for tickets however after that all was fine. Lovely helpful watertaxi man. Very comfortable boat, amazing views on the way to Venice city.

Fast and Efficient

Tonya_M, Nov 2024

A water taxi is the most cost effective way to travel from the airport. We had approximately 10 people on our ride. We were loaded in order of stops which made it very easy and efficient to get on and off. Also, they provide you with a map to get to your hotel.

Well worth the money

Geoff_S, Nov 2024

Airport direct to front of hotel - just brilliant, but pricey for the return option. Arrival was shared taxi, departure would have meant sole use.

Good arrival dreadful leaving

Lesley_T, Nov 2024

The arrival journey was good. The return was dreadful - we spent over 40 minutes collecting other people, the boat was overcrowded. Not an experience I will remember well

It was the correct choice...

David_W, Nov 2024

It was the correct choice for our hotel, dock was 50 feet from hotel. Finding the vendor was difficult and the confirmation was misleading. The trip was crammed in with passengers and luggage.

Terrible experience

Jennifer_g, Nov 2024

Voucher arrived timely but was missing key details, like where to pick up tickets. There was a picture of docks with a blue dot, so we assumed we had to go to the docks to exchange tickets. Hauling 2 weeks of luggage, we made it to the docks only to be told we had to go back to the airport to get the tickets. Nothing on our voucher said we had to go to window 71, so we wasted a lot of time and energy trying to get our tickets. Everyone was rude, the boat captain wasn’t helpful, drove erratically. Never again.

Check-in Confusing

AnneLloyd, Nov 2024

The location of check-in within the airport could be more specific. Otherwise, the transfer was good.

water taxi

Cyril_M, Nov 2024

It is worth the money to see Venice from the water and meet fellow travelers on their journey into this great city

Vogner

Kurt_W, Nov 2024

Highly recommend
