• Venice Vaporetto Tickets

    From Ken Blake@21:1/5 to All on Tue Jan 1 11:35:15 2019
    Is there anyone still here? I haven't seen a message in a long time.

    Just in case there's someone here who can help me, let me ask a
    question or two:

    My wife and will be finishing a cruise and arriving at the Stazione
    Maritima of San Basilio in Venice. We will then be staying in Venice
    for a week, and we will need to take a vaporetto to our hotel.

    I believe we can board the vaporetto and buy tickets from its
    conductor for that ride (is that correct?).

    But that's not what we want to do. Unless we have no other choice, we
    would like to buy seven-day passes. Can we buy them from the conductor
    when we board? Or is there someplace near the Stazione Maritima of San
    Basilio where we can buy them before boarding a vaporetto?

    Or it possible to buy them online before we depart for Italy?

    Yeah last time I went to Venice, probably about 6-7 years ago, I
    returned the car at Piazzale Roma and right around where we board, there
    were vending machines which take credit cards.

    I believe it was outside, didn't have to go in and there weren't any
    queues. Maybe it would be different if a big cruise ship arrives.

    Going back in July, arriving by train so I imagine I'll have to research
    this soon.

    Thanks. Yes I know. I've seen those web pages. I was hoping for
    someplace closer, but probably the Fondamente delle Zattere is the
    closest place we can go for them.

    Unfortunately the Piazzale Roma is a longish walk from where we dock.



    I believe it was outside, didn't have to go in and there weren't any
    queues. Maybe it would be different if a big cruise ship arrives.


    We'll be on a small river ship.

    You can buy tickets on the canal right outside the railway station.
    That's where I've always bought them before.
