Reviews
Aleila
Very convenient. Unfortunately staff not friendly at all. Gives no information. Impassable during the Easter holidays
Marei
Value for money, we bought a 7 day ticket as we were in Venice for 4 days and it worked out so much cheaper. Validate at the yellow machine which we did at the bus station before departing for our hotel. So easy to use you just swipe your tickets at the machines at each vaporetta stop and board the water buses. Saves so much time as you do not need to buy a ticket for each journey.

The staff on public transport were very helpful to give us the information we asked for.

Very easy to get on and off. The instructions to pick up the tickets at the kiosk could be a little more clear. There is 2 bus stations at the train stop without kiosks prior to finding the third station which had the pickup kiosks. Learning the lines was a bit confusing as well, a bus guide would have helped.

I liked being able to get off the train and going right to the kiosk to get my tickets. There was a line for vaporetto tickets. It would have been cheaper to buy in person if I'd been willing to wait in line.
Karen
They can use more water buses, especially near the train station. We had to wait a long time and when we did get on one it was so crowded we could barely get off at our stop. You need to pay attention because they don't always announce the stops and when they do stop, it is not for a very long time.
Kerry
The water bus was easy to find and using the tickets pre booked was better than trying to work out the machine. As long as u know where u r going and where u have to get off it’s fine.
Louise
Well worth getting a multi day pass if your island hopping or want to get from one end of Venice to the other when the days are to hot to walk. We used the ticket to visit the Lido as well. So worth it if you plan on using it more than 3 times.
Janice
really useful getting a 7 day pass for the waterbus, we hopped on and off many times each day and got to see most of venice. we even managed trips to merano and burano islands using the pass. strongly recommend this.
Sarah
I bought the 24hr pass on the morning before going to the ticket machine and printing off. When boarding the bus I did wonder how it was supposed to scan but even though it was a paper copy this was no problem. I utilised the pass heavily to go to lido, burrano and murano before coming back into Venice and using there also. So worth it for the money and would defo recommend to people to use it. Easy simple and value for money
Hillary
It was a great help as I am partially disabled and use two sticks to get around. Walking the length and breadth of Venice and enjoying the city would have been impossible without the pass.
Judy
Great price for parking and trip to & from Venice. Boat was very full so a little crammed in (and 37 degrees so not ideal!) Would be better to have clearer info on which toilets you can use - but there are some 5 mins from the booking office. Would definitely use again if going to Venice.
Luk
I booked the ticket here in advance and it worked great :) We just went to one of the yellow machines in the parking garage (Troncheto). We just had to scan the QR code and within minutes we had our tickets. So we were able to get on at the vaporetto station and off to the post office (please validate the ticket beforehand at the stations for each trip)

This was a great way to see Venice and very convenient method to get home. Be aware that '48 hours' means midnight to midnight, not from the first time you use the voucher. the process is very easy to convert your tickets and will save you time as the manual ticket sellers can get into pfaffing mode and waste your time. if you have a ticket you just go straight through to the waiting area
Amadeius
Highly recommended, everything went smoothly
Rodney
Despite the vouchers saying you can redeem your Venice transportation voucher at a Unica point of sale don't bother as the people I spoke to were not interested in helping. At the one outside the Venice train station the operator told me to go inside and from there I was told to use an automatic machine. Wasted 30 minutes of my life only to get shunted twice. And when you try to use the machine hopefully you will be as fortunate as I was as a local noticed me having trouble and he came to my aid. He tried the barcode at 3 machines with no luck and the 4th one we had success. So probably another piece of advice is use the PNR number. On a positive the tickets are an easy way of getting around Venice and we spent hours on the boats trawling around the waterways.

We arrived in Venice on 5th May 2022 until 9th. May 2022. When we arrived we got the bus from the airport to the water taxes. While paying for the 3day ticket one of our party had his wallet stolen. We did use the water taxes over the next few days unfortunately the weather was raining for three of the four days holiday which made things rather un pleasant. We visited most of the historic buildings and was very interesting best visit doges palace. I was eaten with mosquitos leaving me with itchy spots. I did not e joy the trip but the other three members enjoyed their trip.

Excellent for getting around, it's easy to get to all the islands.

Amazing views of the Grand Canal!! Definitely worth the money! Best to go when it’s not super sunny. I’d suggest sitting in the outside part for better views!
