They are very punctual and explain the entire route to the Islands so that you can appreciate the lagoon and where you are going. It is interesting. It is well indicated where to go to leave by boat but perhaps point out a sign high up so you can find it when you arrive. The visits are highly recommended. They are short but you can see it ... although you cannot linger. I would recommend it 100%.

5 out of 5 stars

Very easy from the airport, follow the blue arrows with a boat. The pier is at the end of a corridor directly at the airport. You have to go to the kiosk at the pier to get the paper ticket. It's very simple, arriving at St. Mark's Square by the lagoon is great. Great idea for a transfer to discover Venice.
