Venice Airport to Mestre
Price your transfer
What is included
- A private vehicle for your group. No sharing, no other stops.
- A fixed price with tolls and taxes in. Nothing is added at the end.
- Flight tracking. Land late and the pick-up moves, not the price.
- 60 minutes of free waiting after the flight lands.
- Free cancellation until 24 hours before pick-up.
- One suitcase and one bag per passenger. More than that, tell us when you book.
The journey
Eleven kilometres, under twenty minutes. Mestre is the mainland half of Venice — ordinary, cheaper, and ten minutes from the island by train. If your hotel is here, the transfer goes to the door rather than to a square.
Arriving at Venice Marco Polo Airport
Marco Polo is thirteen kilometres from Venice, on the mainland. No car reaches the historic centre — the road ends at Piazzale Roma, and from there it is a boat or a walk. That is not a limitation of the transfer; it is how the city works.
- Piazzale Roma is where every car stops. From there, a vaporetto, a water taxi, or your own two feet with the bags.
- If your hotel is on the Grand Canal, a water taxi from the airport dock may suit you better than a road transfer. Ask us and we will say so.
- Mestre is on the mainland, ten minutes from the airport, and half the price of a Venice hotel. Many people stay there without realising it is an option.
How long it really takes
Maps says 18 minutes. That is the driving. Door to door from the moment you land is a different number, and it is the one worth planning around.
Realistically, 48 to 93 minutes after landing. If someone is waiting for you, that is the number to give them.
When to book
Booking early costs the same as booking late — the price does not move. What moves is whether there is a car left.
Cancellation is free until 24 hours before, so booking early costs you nothing if the plan changes.
Before you land
