Get it get you where you need to go but except friendliness

The ride was better going to the train station then the pick up a few days earlier. My best complaint is there is zero communication with the driver. He was not friendly at all.

Poor Service without any compensation!!!

It was my error not noticing you had to travel to get picked up. For 7 of us it meant 2 blocks of crossing bridges taking a water bus to there location. Since I didn’t have cell service I missed this detail and they wouldn’t work with me as there was no way 7 of us could make it in time. We ended taking the water bus directly to the train station in 1/4 of the time. If I had known this we would have done that to begin with and saved the $$$ this company charges. Never heard of you meeting a taxi before and they were so cheap wouldn’t give us any kind of refund even though we tried numerous was to contact them saying there was no possible way of 5 seniors with suitcases could make it! Check your maps for the local water bus and all the details of this service before booking. Poor customer service and such and huge cost for 7 of us!! Don’t use them unless it’s your hotel they pick up at. Lugging suitcases up and down the stairs is a nightmare!!

Cost effective

Ali Laguna is a cost effective way to and from Marco Polo airport to st marks Venice. It takes about 75 mins which is significantly longer than a water taxi. Recommend you book tickets in advance at peak times.

Service and price don’t match

Expensive short trip, same price as the trip from Airport to hotel! and Pick up way too early, it could be at least 1 hour later.

It was an easy transfer...

It was an easy transfer from the water taxi stop near our hotel to the train station. There were no problems and it was a smooth process.
