Marco Polo Airport sits at Tessera, on the landward side of the lagoon bridge. Your driver meets you in arrivals and takes you about 15 km over the Ponte della Libertà to Piazzale Roma, the city’s car terminal — the last point a car can reach before the canals.
Your arrival at Marco Polo and the short drive across the lagoon to Piazzale Roma.
Collect your bags and come out into the arrivals hall, where your driver meets you. The road follows the SS14 and then runs straight across the lagoon on the Ponte della Libertà to Piazzale Roma. That is where every road into Venice ends.
At Piazzale Roma the ACTV vaporetto landings are at the foot of the Constitution (Calatrava) Bridge, and Santa Lucia station is a short walk across it.
Your driver meets you in the arrivals hall and loads the bags. The route follows the SS14 Via Triestina and Via Orlanda towards the lagoon bridge. About 15 km, roughly 20 minutes.
The car stops at Piazzale Roma, the city’s car terminal. The road ends there: the historic centre is islands joined by bridges, so from here you continue on foot or by water — an ACTV vaporetto or a private water taxi. Staying on the mainland? Tronchetto or a Mestre address can be the drop-off instead; say so in your request.
From Marco Polo, ACTV line 5 (the AeroBus) and the ATVO express bus run to Piazzale Roma, and the Alilaguna water bus and private water taxis leave from the airport’s own dock for Venice and the islands. Check the current timetable before travelling. A private car suits you when you land with several cases, travel as a family or group, or arrive late and would rather not queue for a ticket: you go from the arrivals hall to Piazzale Roma in one vehicle, with the luggage in the boot rather than on your lap.
Priced on request, per vehicle rather than per passenger. Your written quote covers the drive, tolls and fuel, the pickup timed to your flight and 60 minutes of free waiting.
We monitor reported flight delays and adjust the pickup time accordingly. Sixty minutes of waiting after actual landing are included.
