We purchased the 48 hour pass and it was the best purchase we made in Venice! We used it from the train station to a stop close to our hotel so we didn't have to drag our luggage, even though we packed light, half way across Venice. We also used the pass, after spending hours in the Basilica & Doge's Palace, for relaxing tour...I mean ride to Murano...it was a great day but it wasn't over...then we used the pass for a ride to the Rialto Bridge. I don't know if you are counting, but we got our $$ worth in the first 24 hours!

I purchased a bus pass from the airport to Venice and back, and a 3-day vaporetto pass on the website. It was very easy to convert them into tickets at the automatic machines by entering the booking code. I recommend purchasing the long vaporetto pass if you are staying for several days, as you may need to get on and off several times in a short period of time. Even just to cross the Grand Canal at points far from the bridges. In addition, the pass covers the entire lagoon, so you can use it to visit the nearby 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.

Just a problem with misinformation at 6 a.m. when the lady at the ticket office refused us access to the pier at a place called St. Marco. We had to run to the next pier so as not to miss the boat. Early in the morning in the dark and in the rain with luggage, it's quite stressful, not to say unacceptable.

Easy to book online and to redeem voucher at the airport office. Regular service and stunning view of the city. Also cheaper than the coach transfer to the road bus station. Blue line is a good choice if you need any earlier morning return trip to the airport.
