Worth knowing

It still does not beat the boat service for a group, because the fare stops being flat above four people: eight travelers pay EUR 150.00 against EUR 144.00 on Alilaguna. It only pulls ahead at nine.

Between 00:00 and 07:00, check you are buying a boat. The operators' own consortium warns that at those hours an airport booking may mean a car to Piazzale Roma and a boat onward.

A flat EUR 10.00 is added to the whole fare between 22:00 and 06:00.

This is the only option that can reach a hotel door, where a canal allows it — which for some addresses with luggage is the whole argument.
