From Venice to Murano

You have your trip to Venice planned but what about Murano? Get the most out of all the lovely Islands in the lagoon. As you already probably know, Murano and Venice are islands in the Laguna Veneta. They are easily reachable with regular transports by sea. Water buses are the convenient public water transports called Vaporetti. If you are coming from the San Marco Airport, there are shuttles through Alilaguna. For 8€ they take you to the island of Murano and 15€ will get you to Venice. Your bag and cabin luggage are included in the price, but be aware they may charge you an additional 3€ for extra luggage. Another form of transportation in the lagoon are the personal taxi boats
