Untold Italy host Katie Clark addresses the logistics of arriving at Venice's cruise terminal, noting that small ships can still dock there while larger ones cannot. She explains that from the terminal, passengers can walk to Vaporetto stops at Piazzale Roma or take a cruise shuttle. Clark recommends using the Vaporetto (either the slow Vaporetto 1 or the express Vaporetto 2) to reach the Rialto stop for Piazza San Marco, or alternatively, booking a water taxi directly to hotels with private docks.
“if you're arriving at the cruise terminal, it's about a ten minute walk to the Vaporaretto stops at Piazzale Roma or the cruise company may put on a shuttle.”
“Vaparido one is the slow ride and Vaporoto two is the express down on the Grand Canal and the riot stop for Piazza San Marco is Sanzakaraya.”
“You could also it's blurge on a water taxi straight to your hotel if it has a private doc and if you want more information about arriving in Venice.”
