Nowhere else that I have seen is the concentration of beauty such. Quite simply, every corner, every canal, every campiello, every palace, every doorway, every bridge, every calle, every narrow alley, every courtyard, every window on which the eye rests is beautiful. Everywhere is beautiful, everywhere the city is suspended in time, anything (except, the train station) that is part of the historic center on the lagoon islands (plus Murano, Burano, Torcello...) exudes beauty. Venice is also unique, without any doubt, but not "only" for being suspended over water, nor for remaining suspended in time. Venice is all these things, but it is also incredibly wonderful, it is really all beautiful. The noisy tourists are there, San Marco is often unlivable because of them, but often it is enough-incredibly-to turn a corner to find yourself in total silence, in the shadow of a secret garden guarded by a decaying palace with an elegant medieval loggia. And the placid canals of the Castello district, surrounded by empty palaces, without inhabitants or stores, when no one passes by. And the lonely bridges over these canals, and almost the unraveling of the elaborate forms of the palaces in the water, and the silence unbroken by the gondolas that skim the water, the thousands of churches with singular facades, the palaces restored or let fall apart, the shady alleys, the courtyards...I prefer the withdrawn Venice of the rii, but there is little that can be denied: what the tourists flock to is also beautiful, very beautiful (and anyway, it is worth repeating, the historic center is vast and labyrinthine, and often at the first crossroads of the tourists nl there is no longer a trace). So many surprises revealed strictly by walking, so many hidden tree-lined campielli with an atmosphere all their own, so many buildings with architecture never seen before, but beautiful, and sunsets over the Cannareggio canal, and airy views from the fondamenta. It would still be necessary to return every now and then, and wander around to satisfy a certain longing for beauty.

We were a little apprehensive about using vaporetto to get around venice but we needn't have worried. It was so easy to get around and having the 7 day ticket made it so much easier. And views in the dark with the Christmas lights were magical!

Using the Vaporetto in Venice is the ideal way to discover its neighborhoods and the splendor of this city. The staff are professional and very helpful. Thank you very much.

The 4 days we spent in Venice this autumn were magnificent. It's great to get around in the Vaporetto, these buses on the water offer a quick trip with a magnificent view of Venice. However, they could be improved. There are very few seats, so we had to stand, and there's nothing to stand on. There could be vertical and/or horizontal bars on the ceiling; low cost for much better comfort. Otherwise, more seats, benches or folding seats would be welcome. We made 2 wrong turns, the platforms being the same, it's not easy to be sure you're not making a mistake, and the signs on the Vaporetto are not sufficiently visible and even less clear. In spite of this, we loved riding on these buses, which we took during the day and in the evening to see Venice in its magnificent light.

Ticket purchase was easy to understand & straight forward. Taking the Vaporetto around the canals & over to Murano & Burano was a great way to see Venice.

Multi-day ticket is much cheaper and more practical than buying a single 9.50 euro ticket each time. And it allows you to sail around all of Venice, plus the surrounding islands.

Everything. As always. But the high number of tourists with little inclination to respect the place I find humiliating for the Serenissima.

Venice is as always splendid and magical, the vaporetto tour makes the experience even better because it allows you to see the city from another point of view. The beautiful palaces and characteristic bridges are best seen d canal grande. Fantastic!

La puntualità del servizio e l'efficienza del personale, nonché la comodità dell'abbonamento giornaliero a 25 euro. Tornerò senz'altro.

Easy booking on line and easy collecting tickets. Saved standing in line for the ticket as queues were big. Best and most affordable way to travel around Venice.

🛳️ Transfer, tour guide and price = perfect ❤️ Can certainly be 💯 recommended. Something different than with what felt like 100,000 people on Markusplatz

The best thing was the frequency of the buses and the flexibility in the choice of routes. Only the strong smell from the old technology would be worth improving and would also be good for the city.
