An essential Venice arrival, done the easy way — enjoy a seamless private transfer combining a comfortable car ride and scenic water taxi.

Your journey begins with a driver waiting for you at the airport arrivals — we monitor your flight in real time and will always be there, even in case of delays. After a smooth transfer by car to Piazzale Roma, the last point accessible by vehicle, you’ll board your private boat.

From there, you’ll glide through the Venetian lagoon and along the city’s charming canals. Depending on your hotel’s location, you may pass by some of Venice’s most iconic landmarks, such as the Rialto Bridge, the Grand Canal, and other historic sights — offering a truly magical welcome to the city.

The boat will drop you off at the nearest possible dock to your accommodation, ensuring a comfortable and stress-free arrival. Throughout the entire transfer, our team provides full assistance to make your first moments in Venice as smooth and unforgettable as possible.

The person missed their plane and we had to reschedule this transfer to Venice. Viator were really helpful about managing this and ensured the person was safe and comfortable.
Kinda disappointing…

Our driver was almost an hour late picking us up. It was difficult to figure out how to get ahold of him/the company to try and figure out where he was. Then once he dropped us off to the private water taxi, the water taxi driver looked like he just rolled out bed, wearing just socks and ripped clothing. Never said a word to us. This was marketed as a luxury transfer service and for the price we paid, they did not deliver that at all. They got us from the airport to hotel but it was stressful and disappointing.

As a solo traveler, it wad important that I not have to stress about transportation, and this booking took care of that. They were waiting for me at arrivals and literally took care of everything from airport pickup and transport to the water taxi service who delivered me to the door of my hotel. I didn’t have to touch my luggage and it was wonderful. Marcello was a joy! Also, my flights were not only horrendously delayed but entirely rebooked and changed and they were communicative and worked with me through the changes! 10/10!
Excellent transfer into Venice when you need a water taxi

It was a well organized transfer with everything done very professionally. Worked well for 6 of us transferring to a hotel in Venice. The only minor ”issue” was that I was expecting more water taxi and less car, but likely just my lack of understanding. Overall very well done!
Prompt, courteous, effcient
