Tickets were easy to get with the online code at the ticket machine. Otherwise best ticket option if you stay more then 3 days.

The vaporetti can be reached at short intervals. No long waiting times. The lines and letters of the landing stage are clearly signposted at the stations, as are the waiting times for the various lines.

Easy to use, but it would be nice to receive a map of the lines and stations when booking.

It was easy to hop and off vaporettos. It is great for night time rides which are the most beautiful. The rides are very expensive but this makes multiple rides per day manageable and affordable.
