How to Commute in the City

By foot

If ample time is on your side, I will recommend you to explore the city on foot. 
Sounds surprising? But yes, you can. Thankfully, the city’s planners have made 
travel navigation extremely easier. The city is safe for pedestrians and there are
sign boards and arrows towards prominent landmarks.

Note that addresses in Venice are of the form "District Number." The Venetian 
word for district is "Sestiere", not "Street Number". To locate a place, you should
first know its district number. The district number is assigned in ascending 
order, that is, the farther you go away from the center of a district, the larger the
number becomes.

By water taxi

This is the cheapest and eco-friendly way to discover the top attractions of the 
city. Water taxis (taxi acquei) are operated by Coop. San Marco. Key depots for 
water taxis are Ferrovia (Railway Station), Piazzale Roma (S.Chiara), Rialto, 
Lido, Marco Polo Airport.

By normal taxi

You can book a normal taxi with Radio Taxi. There are taxi depots at Piazzale 
Roma (tel. +39 041 5237774) and Lido (tel. +39 041 5265).
