Venice Vaporetto Guide

 

VENETIAN PUBLIC TRANSPORT

actv_mapThe ACTV runs the public transit system of Venice, and includes both land buses and water transport (the larger craft are called vaporetto, and were once steam-powered). The system can be confusing even for locals, owing to the extensive routes and schedules created to serve both residents and tourists, combined with the lack of available published information in various languages.

This is hopefully the essential info required to navigate the system: enough to be complete, but not too much to be overwhelming.

Keep in mind that due to the nature of the system, anything here is subject to change, for an hour, a day, or longer, including stops, lines, and landings. Develop the habit of verifying your destination with attendants as you board.
