We purchased the 3 day pass for 45 euros. One of our party members was under 29, so purchased the rolling Venice card with the 3 day vaporetto pass, which cost him 33 euros in total, and also meant him getting big savings on entry to many tourist sites. The passes were straightforward to collect from the ACTV machines at the airport, just type in the PNR code from your confirmation email and the pass is produced. It is then so handy to be able to hop on and off any vaporetto at any stop, including travelling to the islands of Murano, Burano, Lido etc. Although we did lots of walking during our time in Venice we also made lots of vaparetto trips, meaning the price of the pass was well worth it, and saved us lots of money in the long run.

Unfortunately, we only had two days in Venice and booked the 48-hour tickets. Each member of our group was given their own ticket (you have to print them out at the machine on site) so that we could move around independently of each other. The water buses allowed us to get to know this unique city in a way that we would never have been able to do on foot in the short time we were there. We are absolutely thrilled and recommend using the vaporettos to anyone who is not just interested in the tourist hotspots and wants to gather as many authentic impressions as possible.

The ease of getting to the terminal was great especially with two heavy bags. Obtaining the tickets was easy and it was great value for money. The key benefit was being dropped of at the airport and being able to quickly get to the terminal.... no stairs ;-). The trip to the airport through the canals and stopping at various islands along the way was a highlight and seemed more like a cruise than a taxi service. Would recommend it to anyone and we will use it again.

An absolute highlight at the beginning of your stay is the trip on the water bus. The trip is like an island tour, where you can get a first impression of all the islands. The staff are extremely friendly and very helpful with the luggage. I ordered the tickets for the trip online and received them directly at the airport without any complications or waiting time.

It was an awesome opportunity to see so much if Venice in a short time. We were able to catch water bus at any location and spent the day going around Venice using the buses. The directions and terminals were easy to figure out and it helped us see more of Venice, than if we traveled another way. The price if the ticket was resonable and quickly paid for itself.

Very practical 7-day pass. To pick up tickets, no worries and information provided by employees. You have to take the vaporetto at off-peak times, otherwise it's very crowded.
