We booked two transfers through ShomeVenice for our pickup from the Venice VCE airport to our hotel. Then two days later, from our hotel to our cruise ship port in Chioggia. Even though this was a more expensive option, my husband and I were travelling with my elderly parents, so we really wanted to make sure everything went smoothly and that we didn't end up getting stranded somewhere.
Our flight into VCE ended up being delayed by 4 hours causing us to land late in the evening after dark. I was able to call Leonardo at ShomeVenice at our layover airport in Munich. He made sure our pickup went smoothly regardless. Staff member Nicolo was at the VCE airport outside the luggage exit with a sign with my name. He then drove us by shuttle to a private water taxi that then drove us directly to our hotel. Taking a water taxi by night into Venice was truly a spectacular experience as we were greeted with the city lights and bridges, and the fresh air was so refreshing after 20 hours of being trapped in stuffy airplanes and airports.
For our transfer to the cruise port, the ShomeVenice staff arranged for our water taxi pickup from our hotel to a shuttle driven by Nicolo who then drove us to Chioggia an hour away. It just so happens that there was a national public transportation strike on this same day so thankfully that did not affect us or we could have missed our ship!
We were so happy that we chose ShomeVenice for these services. They were professional, flexible, reliable, and gracious and made sure everything went without a hitch. It was worth every Euro! Thank you to Leonardo, Nicolo, and the rest of the staff who made sure our travels into and out of Venice went so smoothly! Thank you & God bless you!
