That you can see and photograph Venice from the water. Otherwise fast, good and clean. Seat optional but after 2 stops at the latest you have one.

Homo Faber on St. George Island, exceptional exhibition . Retrieval of tickets made on line with totems in the train station square was quite easy. A greeting

I had to pay a €59 fine because the ticket time was exceeded by a few minutes. However, this was due to the long queue in Punta Sabione. You had to validate the ticket before queuing. I thought the ticket was enough for a one-way trip to the station. I wasn't aware of the rules about when the time expired.
