Private water taxi in Venice, at any hour

Arriving in Venice should feel like an arrival, not a transfer. Our captains wait for you at Marco Polo airport, the station or the cruise terminal and take you to the water door of your hotel, along the Grand Canal if you wish.

We run a 24/7 water taxi service with an experienced local team and our own boats, ensuring smooth and punctual transfers across the city centre, from and to the main arrival terminals and the islands of the lagoon.

When your journey continues beyond Venice, we combine boat and car in a single seamless transfer: from your hotel to Cortina, Milan, Florence or anywhere in Europe, with one point of contact.

Venice Exclusive services are operated by VLS Agency, with its own boats, cars and team in Venice. vlsagency.com

Signature moments

  • Arriving by the Grand Canal

    From the airport to your palazzo, the most beautiful first kilometre in the world.

  • Dinner on another island

    Your captain waits while you dine on Mazzorbo or Torcello, then brings you home under the stars.

  • A midnight crossing

    The Basin of San Marco empty and silent, just your boat and the lights of the Doge's Palace.
