Ravenna to Venice Transfer: Private Van with Driver

Get from the cruise terminal to Venice without arranging a ride

A private transfer departs Ravenna Cruise Terminal for Venice Marco Polo Airport, Venice city center or Mestre, with an English-speaking driver, bottled water and an air-conditioned van. You choose between road transport only or a combination van-and-water-taxi route to your final destination. One piece of baggage travels free. Additional bags cost €20 each, paid to the driver on board.

The experience

You arrive at Ravenna Cruise Terminal and your driver is waiting with your name. The van seats your group alone (no shared stops, no other passengers), and the route takes roughly two hours to reach Venice. The driver speaks English, the vehicle is air-conditioned, and bottled water is on board. If you're traveling with children, a booster seat is available. Infants can use a specialized seat or travel in a stroller.

At checkout you pick the route: road transfer straight to your destination, or van plus water taxi, which means the driver takes you partway by car and then transfers you to a boat for the final stretch into Venice. The water taxi option works if your hotel sits on the canals or if you want to arrive by boat. Either way, the service is door-to-door. The driver handles the logistics and gets you there.

The vehicle is wheelchair accessible, and the service suits all fitness levels. Luggage is straightforward: one bag per person travels free. Anything beyond that costs €20 per piece, charged on board by cash or card.

Is this one for you?Choose the van-and-water-taxi option if your hotel sits on the canals or you want to arrive by boat. The road transfer alone is faster and simpler if you're heading to the airport or a destination on the mainland side of Venice.
