The man at the office was extremely unfriendly. He wouldn’t give me his name but he was the younger of the two. We were quite sure what was going on. Disappointing! May 8 at around 4-5! The boat transfer was great and the captain was a bit nicer!

The boat over to the island from the airport was quite lovely. It was fast and super convenient! It dropped me off right next to my hotel!

Could have been better. Desk 71 was easy to find but the staff on the desk were not friendly or welcoming. We had to wait over 30 minutes for other passengers to arrive and there were 11 in total so we were crammed in the boat. The driver of the boat didn’t seem to know what he was doing and then the boat broke down halfway across the water to Venice! Not the best arrival!!

Everything was perfect. Just be sure to get your ticket at the booth right before the moving walkway that takes you to the dock.

The boat was overcrowded (6 men over 6 feet tall and 6 women) with lots luggage and the driver of the boat was quite irritated!
