You have so many great tips and it’s hard to find a non tourist trap restaurant- but a very small local restaurant- good for 2-3 people sit down is Osteria Al Cicheto for dinner- you can get Cicheto as a bite to eat with some wine for lunch it very close when getting off the train station, it’s the perfect 1st stop. Service is excellent- you can tell the service staff and the locals love one another. It’s fantastic to see.

The bus is cheaper but most likely not as scenic. I don't recall that you mentioned taking the bus from the VCE airport in this video.

You can take the Alilaguna Vaporetto that takes you frpom the city center to the airport. Here is the timetable www.alilaguna.it/en/lines/linea-blu/orario
@dw3229Ай бұрын
Be aware that google often suggests to walk as this is generally quicker. Check the map if you are tired and really want to take a vaporetto :) Line number 1 is the slow one. Dont underestimate the time it takes through the grand canal. Avoid being dependant on that line. I would recommend staying near a station of line 2 or 6 unless you are prepared to walk. It can be busy in the evening when everyone leaves Venice and when the vaporetto is full and nobody leaves at your station you will not be allowed to enter (so far i have seen this happen only on stations that are line 1 - only)

What do you look forward to when returning to a familiar city like Venice? Maybe an idea for a future video!

Ciao Andrea & Rick! Thank you for your tips! I'm planning to take the Alilaguna from VCE to Venice. Do they only take cash in the airport arrivals hall? Should we purchase tickets on Alilaguna's website before the trip? You recommended to buy a Vaporetto pass for our entire stay in the video, do you recommend buying the passes before the trip or after arrival in Venice? Is the official tourism website the only place to purchase the Vaporetto passes? Grazie mille.

Hello there, thank you for your comment 🙏we always like to buy tickets before we depart just to be ready, however for the vaporetto you can buy them whine you arrive in Veni at any of the automated kiosks. It is totally up to you.
