We lead a photo tour to Venice for Carnival every year and we buy the Turbo Pass for all our participants, including a week of vaporetto transportation. Everyone loves the pass that allows us access to many wonderful, artistic and historical locations. So much to do in a week, and the Turbo pass is a great value!
We used Turbopass for the third time and it made our visit to Venice a lot easier. I recommend
The Venice City Pass was really a positive surprise for us: Many sights could be visited for free - and there were already some highlights, such as the Scuola Grande San Rocco or the gondola ride!
It is really worth buying Venice City Pass. We stayed in Mestre for 5 days and traveled to Venice and back every day, above it we could use vaporetto transport in Venice and islands without any limits. We visited almost every sight included in Venice City Pass offer. There are many nice places in Venice with almost no turists, it was very plesant and we have enjoyed these more than the visit of crowded Doges Palace. Unfortenatelly, we were not able to attend the Grand Canal Tour, we didnt make reservation in advance and all spots were reserved for all 5 days we stayed in Venice.
Really great and experienced many beautiful things. Everything worked smoothly. Along with local transport, we could use vaporettos and all buses on Lido. However, the ships were usually very full and there was a mask requirement (not bad with so many people). Nevertheless, I would do everything exactly the same way again.
Canal Grande Tour was very nice
Especially the transport pass is a useful tool. Make sure to exchange the different passes (transport, museums and churches) with your voucher as soon as possible. Find out beforehand where you can do that.
We took advantage of many offers. Above all, we were able to avoid many long queues, e.g. B. in front of the Doge's Palace. Canal tour very informative with a very nice guide. It was very worthwhile for us.
Sightseeing can start immediately, any time again.
I liked that in the pass were included some attraction points that were not in the main sight seeing list and also the fact that we had skip the line at Palazzo Ducale. Overall happy that we booked the classic turbo pass.
It is worth buying the Venice City Pass. In our case it was particularly advantageous because of the daily trips from Mestre to Venice and back by tram. After that, we also found a special advantage for trips with vaporettos, i.e. water taxis. We were in Venice for 7 days and for the first time we mostly visited the island on foot. We used a faster access to the selected city points with vaporetto several times. The ticket price for a vaporetto ride per person is €7.50 and with many trips per day it was very reasonable to have the Venice City Pass. The number of trips remains unlimited. I also found a motorboat ride through La Grande Canal particularly interesting with the City Pass. Other advantages such as admission to the museum without waiting times are also particularly cheap.
Redeeming the pass was a bit of a walk, but we were able to avoid waiting times at the Doge's Palace and got away with it much cheaper :)
The turbo pass is really highly recommended! The three of us went on a girls vacation and spent 3 days in Venice. I have to say that in my opinion the pass only pays off if you look at the city for at least 2 days. I was pleasantly surprised that everything is so easy and you only have to show the QR code on your cell phone at every museum. We opted for the Turbopass Classic and thus had the opportunity to take a gondola ride, which we did on the first day. We got there without waiting and then reserved the 3 island tour at 2:30 p.m. with German audio. The 3 island tour is highly recommended, as it also includes a visit to the glass blowing workshop, which I highly recommend! We were able to see live how different figures and glasses are made...otherwise the entry costs an extra 10€, but it was included! Since you have 50 minutes on each island, I would visit Murano again with the public transport, because this island is really very beautiful and more time may be needed. Burano is a beautiful island, but there are a lot of tourists there, which is why the waiting times for public transport are extremely long and there are always long queues. This was not a problem with the boat trip, since it leaves again after 50 minutes. Since the entrance fees are between 8-25€, you usually think twice whether you really visit a museum, but the pass made this decision for you and we looked at almost everything, even things that didn't interest us that much, were then but mostly excited to have looked. A big + is also that no or shortened waiting times are made possible by the pass. In one museum everything was actually already full and other visitors were sent away that they should come later, but with the pass this was not a problem and we were still allowed in. I would take the pass again and again because it is so easy, waiting times are avoided or there are shorter extra lines. It is also practical that the most interesting things are listed directly.
Were able to do everything we planned. There was even access to the sights that had no free tickets available that day.
Most attractions were familiar with Turbopass. Works perfect and save time!
Interesting entries! Above all, I found the tour of the "Teatro la Fenice" very exciting.
