As we stayed in a hotel outside of Venice, we were able to use this on the bus and tram to get in and out of Venice, then on the waterbuses to go around Venice and get some amazing pictures. We able to navigate ourselves to Burano which is a must. Very useful for jumping on waterbuses just to rest your feet from all the walking. Overall good value for money we definitely made the most of having these tickets.

The actual purchase at the vending machine is very difficult because of the small font and the sun on the screen. But then using the vaporetti was an absolute pleasure!View original review in German
