Venice Local Transportation
This article has up-to-date information on vaporetti, water taxis, gondolas, and traghetti. It includes prices for waterbus tickets and tourist discount passes, and it has a link to an official map of vaporetto routes.

Vaporetto Routes
Venice's waterbus system is more Byzantine than St. Mark's Cathedral. This article and route table will make the vaporetti less confusing. Also see our Vaporetto and Bus Fares article.
