Did you know you can catch a taxi in Venice? Only they're boats instead of cars!. Water taxis can help you get around the city, especially convenient when you are arriving and departing with luggage. The consortium of water taxis is called Consorzio Motoscafi Venezia and is a group of about 100 licensed taxi operators that serve the city's waterways. You can book online for advance pricing and reservations, from the airport, train station and car park.

There are stops around Venice with ticket booths. You can also arrange a taxi to take you to the islands, the Lido (beach) and around the city -a nice way to go out for a special dinner. The members of the consorzio can also take you on excursions and tours of their fair city.

Reserve online for advance price and reservation guarantees.
