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.

We used a 48 hour vaporetto pass and enjoyed the ease of use of the tickets and clear directions at all the stops. The service was very frequent and there were lots of different lines. It also allowed us to get to Burrano and Murano. It was lovely to sit outside at the back and experience all the sites along the Grand Canal. We would definitely recommend getting a pass for the convenience of unlimited travel around Venice.

We bought the 48-hour pass, and it was an excellent choice. We were able to make the most of our visits to more places without worrying about buying tickets, since all the vaporetto rides are included. We also took advantage of the buses to get between the island and our accommodation. I had hesitated two years ago, but it was definitely worth it! And I’ll definitely do it again 👍🏻

If you book in advance online, you must scan your digital ticket before your first ride so it can be converted into a paper ticket. Unfortunately, this doesn't always work on the first try. Otherwise, it's a simple, punctual way to get around Venice.

I bought it online and was charged a 5-euro fee. They gave me a code made up of letters, and when I went to a machine, all I had to do was enter the code, and it gave me a two-day pass. Sometimes the machines don't accept credit cards properly

A great experience. It's definitely worth it. We bought the 24-hour ticket and used it several times, including trips to Burano and Murano. The transportation is safe, fast, easy, and comfortable to use.

    Excellent, timely and comfortable. Had no issues using the service and would highly recommend to others using the same. Some great views of the city from the water as well!

    On paper this sounded a great combo ticket, in reality whilst it was useful, it's not really needed. Firstly, to start with the negative, the Basilica guide spent the week before our trip badgering me into upgrading my ticket into a guided tour (we'd booked a self guided audio guide), ultimately they then didn't turn up on the day and Headout then refunded me- the Headout team were great but it meant we couldn't see the inside of the Basilica, which was a real shame. No issue with the Doge's Palace tickets but there was no need to buy it as the queue was about 5 people, on a busy public holiday weekend, so in our experience of wasn't needed and we could have saved the money and wished for 10 mins max. The vaporetto ticket was great but, again, I don't think I saw a single person buy a ticket all weekend, so you probably don't need to, but, this was really easy to collect and felt like good value for money, taking you out to Burano (which is around 35 minutes so a good distance), Murano and the others. Overall, Headout made the process really easy and everything worked fine except the tour guide. Having googled it when back home, it's a common practice for these local tour companies to try and move individual bookings to another time slot so they can minimise the number of tours.
