Public transportation runs very frequently, and I’ve never had any problems; my experience has been very positive with the day pass, which allows for unlimited travel throughout the day on urban routes, including the islands.

All I can say is: GOOD AND AFFORDABLE. Everything went smoothly, from buying the ticket online to traveling by bus and vaporetto. The service is excellent. The vaporettos and buses run on time. We really enjoyed the vaporetto trips... you can hop on and off wherever you want. The stations are well marked, so you can't get lost. We'll be back. Thank you very much.
