How to Get to the Venice Cruise Port from Marco Polo Airport

Venice Cruise Hotels

Venice is tricky for travelers because that which makes it beautiful and magical, and attracts tourists, also makes it difficult and expensive for travelers to traverse. Yes, Venice’s canals are only navigable by boat. Little alleyways, cobblestone streets, and tiny bridges may be navigated by foot. Boat and foot are your only options. There are no 4-wheel taxis and buses allowing tourists an easy in and out with baggage. Thus, when traveling to or from Venice for a cruise travelers need to be strategic about their hotel choice.

For cruise travelers spending a night in Venice it is logical to stay around Piazzale Roma, which is just across the bridge on Venice island. It is close to the cruise port. It is also located at the top of the Grand Canal so you can easily take the vaporetto down the Grand Canal to enjoy Venice’s sightseeing highlights.
