Route Overview
Arriving at Venice Marco Polo Airport and heading to Venice City Centre? A private transfer is the most comfortable way to get there. Instead of the Alilaguna waterbus, an ATVO/ACTV bus to Piazzale Roma or a shared shuttle, a professional English-speaking driver meets you in arrivals, helps with your luggage and drives you directly toward Venice City Centre in Venice historic centre.
Because central Venice is car-free, the road transfer reaches Piazzale Roma or the Tronchetto — the points vehicles can reach — where you connect to a water taxi, the vaporetto or a short walk to Venice City Centre.
Good to know: Venice City Centre is inside Venice's car-free zone. Your road transfer ends at Piazzale Roma or Tronchetto; from there we can arrange a private water taxi or you continue by vaporetto.
Why Choose Our Private Transfer
A private transfer replaces the Alilaguna waterbus, an ATVO/ACTV bus to Piazzale Roma or a shared shuttle with one direct ride: a driver waiting for your flight, help with your bags and a fixed price agreed before you travel.

About Venice City Centre
The historic centre of Venice spreads across 118 islands laced by canals, entirely closed to cars. Road transfers bring you to Piazzale Roma or the Tronchetto — the only points vehicles can reach — from where a water taxi, the vaporetto or a short walk over the bridges completes the journey to your hotel.
The car-free heart of Venice, from St Mark's Square to the Rialto and the six historic sestieri. It is especially well suited to travellers heading to a hotel or landmark in central Venice.
Things to Know
- Cars cannot enter Venice — the transfer ends at Piazzale Roma or Tronchetto.
