![]() ![]() If you follow any travel accounts on Instagram, then you’ve probably heard of this point on the itinerary. The city is not yet ready for this… so go for the old-fashioned way □ I chose this option and I confess that I really regretted it. There is an option to buy the pass through an App, but the truth is that not all Vaporetto stations are ready yet (since you need to validate the ticket before boarding). □ EXTRA TIP: I recommend buying a physical ticket at the ticket office just outside the Santa Lucia train station. You can consult the most up-to-date information on vaporettos prices as well as the existing lines here. The Vaporetto service can also be used for trips to Murano and Burano! Although the price is high (24h = 21€ 48h = 30€ 72h = 40€ 7 days = 60€), it is worth it. There are also taxi services (also by boat), but honestly, they are too expensive and not worth it compared to the Vaporetto.Ī single Vaporetto trip (valid for 75 minutes) costs 7,5€ so I recommend buying the daily or multi-day pass. Basically, vaporettos are the means of transport for the locals. So, using the Vaporetto lines (the name given to the ferry in Venice) is very practical.

If you are looking for an even cheaper solution, you can try to find accommodation outside the “historical” part of Venice. Venice is deceiving and walking distances are much longer than you can imagine! Otherwise, I recommend looking for accommodation with a Vaporetto station nearby. If you’re not on a tight budget, opt for central accommodation (near Rialto or St. It is important to take your time when choosing your accommodation as there are no cars in town, only vaporettos (more tips to follow!). Although they offer the option of breakfast, I don’t think it’s worth it as there are a few cafes nearby (about 5 minutes walk). Ca’ Fontanea is a small accommodation located in a very quiet area of the city. ![]()
