Venice Short Guide

What everyone needs to know before visiting this Great City.

Transport From The Airports Treviso, mainly served by the charter flights so you should have your transfer already arranged. If not you can book venice airport transfer at around €5 one way.

From Marco Polo, one of the cheapest way to get to your hotel is the water bus (www.alilaguna.com) costing  €5 journey time is around 30 minutes. However we do recommend a water taxi usually costs around €80 for up to six people purely on basis that you simply can not beat the feeling of arriving to your hotel and entering from its water door. 

Sightseeing  Take your time and spend the day getting lost in those small canals and streets of Venice. When you get tired, take an hour off at a cafe of your choice people watching. Venicecard costs €29 per day and benefits , free access to public transport and toilet-nurseries in the city, to the municipal museum (Musei Civici Veneziani) and, on the 3 and 7 days cards, free access to the 16 Churches of Chorus Association, to Querini Stampalia Foundation and Jewish Museum; 
reductions in many other museums, churches, exhibitions and cultural events in Venice; 
reductions in main parkings rates and in bars, restaurants and shops that show the Venice Cards logo on the shop-windows; 
free entry to the Casinò di Venezia for Senior holders.

Transport Around Town is best achieved by walking. Yes, you read it right! Venice has two street systems, the canals and the pavements. Contrary, you heard and read you will be using the pavements most of the time.

Few Good Points,  Venice's main thoroughfare is the Grand Canal. , it divides the city in half. The majority of the most important palaces in Venice stand on the Grand Canal, and the main facades of all of them are on the water side, many properly visible only from the water. 

Eating Well as the Italian cuisine is considered one of the healthiest in the world, it is safe to say you will not have any major issues in Venice finding an eatery to your satisfaction. 

However, the Venetian cuisine is based on seafood, so if you don't like sea food, you may find the menus a bit limited. We would recommend to follow your ear and find a place frequented by the locals. You will not be disappointed. The chances are it will be cheaper and much better food!
