Grand Canal Venice
Enjoy a convenient private water taxi transfer from your hotel in Venice to Santa Lucia Station including a meet & greet service to take you to the platform.
Travel Curious is at your service for all your Venice Transfers, to and from your centrally located hotel in the city.
Santa Lucia Station is the only railway station located on the island of Venice. It serves passengers arriving from and departing all over Italy and beyond. Situated directly on the Grand Canal, the station is easily accessible by water transport. The city of Venice is unique in the world because you will not find any cars on the islands. As a result, travelling by boat is the most convenient and scenic way to arrive and depart from your hotel in Venice. Arranging for a private water taxi transfer ahead of time takes the stress out of the planning of your departure from Venice. It also gives you one last glimpse of the charming canals of Venice as you cruise towards Santa Lucia and saves you from navigating Venice’s winding streets and bridges with all of your luggage.
We understand that busy train stations can be difficult to navigate for those unfamiliar with Venice so our friendly English-speaking assistant will be on hand to meet you at the water taxi stop and escort you inside Santa Lucia Station. With a deep knowledge of the layout of Venice, they will escort you from your private water taxi which will take you directly to your train platform. We provide this ‘meet and greet’ facility in all train station drop-offs for our Venice Transfers, along with the safe handling of your luggage. We also offer a fixed-price service to ensure costs remain predictable and manageable.
Private water taxis are ideal if you want to get to the train station quickly, especially if you are short on time or have an evening departure. Ultimately, a private water taxi offers a convenient end to your stay in Venice, and it’s worth it if you’re looking for a scenic, hassle-free departure.
Do not worry, we have you covered with our flexible cancellation terms.
