With clear, fixed pricing and optional upgrades such as full assistance or extended hourly use, the service can be tailored to different travel needs. Whether you are arriving at the airport, departing for the train station, or exploring the islands, our water taxi transfers offer a reliable and comfortable way to move around Venice.

Delay up to 1 hour: no extra charge
Delay up to 2 hours: €60 (sedan) or €70 (minivan)
Delay up to 3 hours: €120 (sedan) or €140 (minivan)
Extended Delays: We guarantee that the driver will wait for up to 3 hours from the originally scheduled time.

If you still require a transfer after this time, a new booking must be made and paid for, and it will be subject to driver availability.
Important: Even if you inform us on the day that your flight or train is delayed, the above waiting time and rescheduling policy still applies. Drivers are pre-assigned to multiple services and may have later bookings that cannot be delayed.
Cause of Delay: The above conditions apply regardless of the cause, including (but not limited to) bad weather, airline or train cancellations, strikes, technical issues or missed connections. Any claims for losses should be directed to the airline or train operator. We can provide receipts or booking confirmations to support compensation or insurance claims.
