Arrival in Venice Airport and Transfer by Water Bus or Taxi
There are two main airports in Venice. You will likely arrive at the main airport of Venice Marco Polo which is located 5 miles (8km) across the water from Venice. The water bus (i.e. the "vaparetto") picks up directly at the airport and delivers you to Venice. You'll find the docks just by following the signs and you can purchase a water bus ticket at the airport for 15 EUR. You can also book a private, and very expensive, water taxi directly to your hotel, or take a land taxi to Piazzale Roma near the Venice main train station. From there you can walk or catch a water bus to your hotel. Uber is not available in Venice. If you are arriving at the more distant Treviso Airport, you will need to take a shuttle bus or an expensive taxi (100 EUR) to Venice. The ATVO bus delivers you to the Piazzale Roma on Venice in 70 minutes. The Barzi Bus Service takes you to the Tronchetto docks in 40 minutes, but from there you must take a water taxi or water bus. Both cost 12 EUR.

Rialto Bridge & San Polo District
The graceful arch of the Rialto Bridge is perhaps the single most iconic sight in Venice since nearly everyone passes beneath it on their journey along the Grand Canal. It connects Venice's two most visited districts, San Marco and San Polo. While San Marco is famous for St. Mark's Square, San Polo more than holds its own as a must-see destination, as it contains some of the city's oldest neighborhoods and most picturesque canals and bridges. It is also home to some of the best restaurants in Venice, and admittedly some of its worst tourist traps as well. Among many highlights is the bustling Rialto Market, which was once one of medieval Europe's busiest financial and trade markets, and still does a brisk trade in fresh seafood and produce.

Visit the Dorsoduro District
Discover the less well-known sestiere (district) of Dorsoduro and visit its world-famous art collections at Gallerie dell'Academia, the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, and Cà Rezzonico. Once a haven for artists before rising rents drove them out, it is still a charming and unique district with many lively spots, such as the Campo Santa Margherita, one of Venice's largest squares. Be sure to take a walk along its enchanting waterfront promenade known as Zattere and explore the cafes along its canals.
