ATVO coachorTaxi, from the rank?

The short answer

These do not go to the same place, so price is not the comparison. The ATVO coach reaches Venice — Piazzale Roma and Tronchetto; the Taxi, from the rank does not. The EUR 15.00 minimum applies to Treviso station or the old town — not Venice. A taxi to Venice runs on the meter beyond the municipal boundary, subject to the driver's agreement, so no price to Venice can be stated.

The Taxi, from the rank is quicker: 10 min against 1 h.

It costs EUR 4.00 more than Barzi and takes about 20 minutes longer. Its advantage is the destination: Piazzale Roma is the bus terminal at the head of the Grand Canal, a five-minute walk from Santa Lucia station.

Watch the luggage rule. The included bag is 55x40x20 cm, smaller than a Ryanair cabin bag, and anything more can cost a second full fare.

No departure times are given here. No authority publishes ATVO's timetable — check with ATVO before you travel.

It also stops at Mestre station, about 50 minutes in, which is the better choice if you are staying on the mainland.

Every price here is a minimum with a meter above it, so treat them as a floor rather than a quote.

A Treviso taxi can legally take more than four people — the regulation sets four as a minimum with no ceiling, and the tariff prices up to eight. That is unusual and worth knowing for a group.

The published discounts for over-65s and others apply only to journeys inside the Treviso municipality, so not to Venice.

For Venice, the driver is not obliged to take the fare at all: journeys beyond the municipal boundary need the driver's consent.
