CartaVenezia

If you are a frequent visitor to Venice, you might consider the CartaVenezia, or long-term pass. It’s a significant investment if you’re not a resident of Venice or the Veneto (€40), but you can save money in the long term for individual tickets and pass prices, although they’ve risen, too). See the ACTV site for complete information (scroll down to CartaVenezia).
