• A Water Taxi from Venice Marco Polo Airport to the city centre costs between €105 and €150.
  • You can consider taking shared water taxi for around €40 (see also here)
• Given the rather complex way of traveling on the island, we advise to not arrive too late.
• There are numerous sites with additional up-to-date information, see e.g., Venice LoverLink opens in a new window.

Since Venice is a very popular tourist destination already in May, we advise to book accommodation early.
