Purchasing a Turbopass was a good decision for us, as we took advantage of many of the offers (guided tours, boat trips, and museum admission). Sometimes it wasn't clear whether simply showing the pass was enough or whether it had to be exchanged for tickets. But even then, you could skip the line to, for example, the Doge's Palace. If you book the pass ahead of time, you can start planning at home. All the information was clearly presented, and the Turbopass team was on hand to help us with any reservation issues.
We compared this to what we would have spent paying standard prices, and the savings were massive. We had no problems using the various passes, and the instructions were very clear. I would happily use Turbopass again in future.
I chose the Venice Turbopass so I could see everything without having to book all the sights individually at a specific time. This gives you the freedom to do things independently. For some tours, you can make a last-minute appointment on site; for others, you can just skip the line. Great. I also booked the local transport, so I had everything in one ticket. It was very relaxing. I can recommend the Turbopass; it was good value for money. There was a discount in March, though. Since Rome is coming up, I'll definitely buy it again.
The City Pass offers an immense variety of activities to visit. I had 2 days, and wished I had 3 days. The customer service representatives were responsive. To get the most from this pass, the user should research beforehand just want he/she wants to see and make reservations when possible for some activities. I only wish we had been able to reserve the 3-island tour ahead of time, as I could not go on the day planned (it was already full when we arrived on time), and had to re-order other activities accordingly. But with some planning, this is a terrific way to see Venice.
super everything perfect
It is cost effective for 3 days or more, but you won't get to see everything on the list. The public transport option is not cost effective as most of the attractions are within walking distance.
we had taken the Turbo pass for Venice Great to be able to access everything Only remark: why not digitize everything because going to get the Chorus pass for example is a constraint and there are some really amazing churches missing, so a Chorus pass for all the churches Otherwise great stay, but watch out for the additional billing in bars and restaurants with the copago you can't really compare On the other hand if you want the Basilica San Marco you will have to pay, for two around €30 to see everything and it's worth it as there are so many things to see We recommend the Turbo pass
It was nice to have all the right reservations made before we arrived in venice. The islands tour was the best part.
Everything worked well. It's best to book boat trips right away, as not all dates are free. You have to visit three places at the beginning to get everything or to organize it. We had the 4-day pass and the time was definitely too short. We would have easily needed a week for everything. If you paid extra for all the entrance fees, we would certainly have done less and still spent more.
We got the 72 hour travel passes for boats, and got the 72 hour city pass. We went into Doges Palace and museum for free, Leonardo DaVinci interactive museum, took a gondola ride and a grand Canal tour. We found it to be worth the cost.
We had two wonderful days in Venice and saw almost everything that was interesting to us. We were able to enjoy the benefits included in the TurboPass in two relaxed days, thanks to good planning beforehand. Nevertheless, we had enough leeway to be spontaneous and to let ourselves drift through the city without a plan and enjoy everything. The tours were on time, the pass worked everywhere. We would visit Venice again at any time and would definitely recommend this pass. In any case, you need several days to fully experience everything.
I loved that with the pass we could go almost everywhere.
The only hiccup was
1. Better if you speak/understand italian as when you have to get your pass for the churches, need t9 oick it up from 1of three churches, its a bit of a challange. But it is 100% worthy.
2. You need to get your other pass from the Doge palace which is a sort of skip the line, but need to be straight and explain ( again better if you speak italian) why you are there :)
Great offer, but you really have to use a lot of it! We used everything except the churches! But you have to ask around, because you're on the spot! We'd be happy to go again

The Venice City Pass from Turbopass allowed us to discover in 4 days almost all the attractions, museums and monuments of Venice planned in the Pass with simplicity, ease and without the slightest difficulty. I expected to encounter possible organizational or administrative difficulties during the visits, but to my pleasant surprise, this was not the case. This Pass really fulfills its role by allowing you to visit the many and different tourist sites at your own pace without stress or time constraints or reservation of visit slots. Be careful, however, some attractions require advance reservation with respect to a fixed slot, which is normal due to the desired activity. This was the case for example for the Gondola ride or the visit of the islands by boat. However, the determining and essential asset of this Pass from my point of view is the quality and clarity of the explanations it contains. Indeed, everything you need to do is very well explained in the Pass: meeting places, locations, schedules, reservations to make if necessary... It is this clarity of information that convinced me to take this Pass and I am not disappointed. Finally, it obviously provides priority access to sites with long queues, which allows a significant saving of time and money. Indeed, considering the individual entrance prices of each attraction, the Pass becomes very, very quickly profitable, which makes it another valuable advantage when you have it in your possession. For all these reasons, I therefore recommend this Pass without hesitation to anyone wishing to make the most of their stay in Venice.
The turbopass is really essential to visit Venice and do all the activities you want at a low price. We left at the end of August 2024 from August 25 to 31, a period that is quite busy for visits. We stayed 4 days in Venice and it was just perfect, we did a simple day of visiting the city and then we did the activities over 3 days. We were able to do all the activities such as the gondola, the tour of the Grand Canal, the visit of the 3 islands, and lots of other activities, this allowed us to save €100 on everything we did. Go for it, I recommend it 100%!
The content is good and really practical to organize yourself. One downside though, only one place to withdraw the different tickets which is restrictive when you don't withdraw all the tickets at the same time. The Murano, Burano walk is not well balanced, the time spent in Murano is too short, in Burano too long and Torcello sufficient. Otherwise the pass is the solution to get to the essentials
