TOUR DESCRIPTION
 

Venice Cruise Port to Venice Airport Transfer (VCE)

End your vacation on the right foot with a private transfer from your cruise ship in Venice directly to Marco Polo Airport (VCE). This is a direct, door-to-door service with a professional English-speaking driver, no shared shuttles, no waiting for other passengers. Marco Polo Airport is about 13 kilometers (8 miles) from the Venice cruise terminal, and the full transfer typically takes about 45 minutes.

Luggage Allowance: Each person may bring one large suitcase and one personal item - backpack, purse. If you have additional bags, oversized items, golf clubs, or mobility equipment, please contact us before booking so we can arrange the right vehicle.

Vehicle Types: Vehicle size is matched to your group - sedans for 1-2 passengers, minivans for 3-6, and minibuses for 7-8. All are air-conditioned, non-smoking, and licensed for private transport.

Total Transfer Time: Plan on approximately 45 minutes.

Flight Timing: Most travelers plan to arrive at Marco Polo Airport about 2 hours before an international flight; if you'd like extra cushion, arriving 3 hours before departure is a safe margin. Let us know your preferred pickup time when booking.

Larger Groups: For groups that exceed our standard vehicle capacity, we can arrange additional vehicles or a larger coach. Use the group request button on this page or contact us with your group size and travel date for a custom quote.

Cruise Ship Now Arriving in Ravenna Instead of Venice?

Since 2021, large cruise ships have been restricted from entering the historic center of Venice by lagoon, and some cruise itineraries listed as "Venice" now dock instead at Ravenna's Porto Corsini, roughly 90 miles (145km) south along the Adriatic coast. If your ship is calling at Ravenna rather than the Venice cruise terminal, Private Shore Trips also runs regular private transfers between Venice hotels and Ravenna cruise port. See our Ravenna Cruise Port Transfers page for all available routes.

Reviewer: Louise R from Rocky River OH  
Our trip was fabulous. Our flights were on time, the weather was great and the sites so amazing! Our tours and guides were excellent. I dont have their names handy but all were extremely knowledgeable and we loved their passion for their countries. Should we venture back to Europe we will definitely contact you again. I will surely recommend your company to anyone traveling in Europe.

Reviewer: Mei Ying L from Tampa, FL  
We were 2 and a half hours late in arriving at the airport where we were to be picked up for a 4 hour excursion which was scheduled to end by 2pm but the tour operator allowed for an extension of the tour till 3pm without extra charge. We had good guides clean and fairly new vehicles. Itineraries were interesting and flexible.

Reviewer: Reggie M from Roaring Spring, PA  
Excellent service provided with clean and efficient vehicles. The driver was very professional, and got us to our destination in a timely manner. The water taxi driver found us, even though we were a block from the meeting place. You could tell that the company cared for their customers, and provided an excellent service and experience.

Reviewer: Susan P from Irvine, CA  
We just got back yesterday and I am very glad to bring the good news that all the tours have been a wonderful success!!! The buses were very comfortable and the tour guides have been great and considerate of our senior citizens. We all applauded the end of every tour and We have all been recommending Private Shore Trips web site to all the people we met on the ship. You know that recommendation and word of praises are good advertisements for your business. Well surely get in touch with you when the need arises. Again, a million thanks for what you did for us that made our vacation a truly enjoyable one. Also, we got lucky with good weather.
