🚤💡 Ride Sharing in Venice? Here’s What You Really Need to Know

#ridesharingtravel In Venice, there are no cars. No buses. No Ubers. Just canals, boats, and cobblestones. But that doesn’t mean you can’t share your ride like a smart traveler. You just need to think… Venetian 🚣♂️✨ ⸻ 🛶 What Ride Sharing Looks Like in Venice 🚤 Vaporetto (Public Waterbus) = Venice’s Version of UberPool Hop on and off with locals and tourists alike. It’s cheap, scenic, and goes everywhere from Piazza San Marco to Murano & Burano. 🛥️ Alilaguna Airport Boats = Airport Shuttle, Venetian-Style Great for getting from Marco Polo Airport to central Venice or the Lido. Book online for the best price. 🧑🤝🧑 Split a Water Taxi Private water taxis are pricey… unless you split the fare! Ask fellow travelers at hostels or on apps like Rome2Rio or Facebook groups. It turns a €70 fare into a breezy €15–20. 🚶♀️ Venice = a Walkers’ Paradise Don’t underestimate the joy (and savings) of wandering. The city’s walkable, safe, and full of surprise bridges and secret squares. ⸻ 💡 Smart Ride Sharing Tips 💬 Ask at your hostel if anyone’s heading your way — split a water taxi to the airport or train station 📲 Use AVM Venezia Official App to plan Vaporetto rides like a pro 🗺️ Vaporetto lines are numbered — think of them as the subway, but on water 🧳 Traveling light? Walk from Santa Lucia Station to many parts of Venice in 20 mins or less 🛎️ Many hotels and hostels can organize shared water taxi transfers — just ask!
