[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Venice’s vaporetto (Italian term for water-bus) line 1 ACTV is the most frequently used line to reach Rialto bridge and St. Mark’s Square<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Line 1 navigates along the Grand Canal and stops at some of the most famous attraction in the old town<\/strong> of Venice before reaching the Lido. In this article you will find information on timetables, stops and points of interest located near each stop along the itinerary of vaporetto line 1.<\/p>\n This way you will be able to organize your next trip to Venice easily and explore the city without worries.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Vaporetto line 1 ACTV starts its route at the stop near the bus station <\/strong>(called Piazzale Roma), and begins its itinerary towards Venice’s Lido<\/strong>.<\/p>\n During its itinerary, vaporetto line 1 navigates the internal part of the historic center <\/strong>of Venice through the city’s main water road: the Grand Canal. Travelling with this particular line you can reach a number of attractions such as Rialto, Saint Mark’s Square, Gallerie dell’Accademia and the Arsenale.<\/p>\n Line 1 is a very practical and popular line<\/strong>, perfect to calmly reach Rialto Bridge and St. Mark’s Square<\/strong> and to be able to admire the city from a priviledged point of view. The perspective from below, from the canal, is the best to fully appreciate the Venetian aristocratic palaces and churches built facing the Grand Canal.<\/p>\n Vaporetto Line 1 ACTV reaches the Lido in about an hour and then returns to Piazzale Roma doing the same itinerary.<\/p>\n To reach Rialto Bridge and St. Mark’s square in the shortest amount of time, we suggest you consider taking Line 2, which reaches those destinations without making every stop, as Line 1 does.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”15104″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_empty_space][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Vaporetto line 1 cruises the historic center of Venice and makes all the stops located on the Grand Canal.

Generally the vaporetto Line 1 operates every day of the week from 5 am to midnight. During the day the water-bus runs at intervals of about 10 to 20 minutes.<\/p>\n If you want to continue your visit of the Venetian historic center in the evening or at night by vaporetto it is possible to do so.<\/p>\n Vaporetto Line 1 starts its last trip at midnight<\/strong>. From that moment on, an almost equivalent line is in service: line N<\/strong> which runs from 11:30 pm to 4 am.<\/p>\n Vaporetto line N makes the same stops as vaporetto Line 1, the only difference is that it stops at Giudecca island, St. Basilio and Zattere as well. For more information about timetables and stops of the nocturnal line, consult the official ACTV site – Line N<\/a>.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”15855″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Venice vaporetto line 1 is a very popular, touristic line which is ideal for all those tourists who are looking for a peaceful panoramic trip on the most famous water road in Venice: the Grand Canal<\/strong>.

To travel on the water-buses, you\u2019ll need either a single-fare ticket (valid for 75 minutes), all-day or multi-day ticket (available up to 7 days)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n ACTV vaporetto tickets allow unlimited travel on public water during the validity period of the ticket<\/strong> you purchased.<\/p>\n In the following paragraph we\u2019ll look into fare prices, the difference among the travel tickets and where it is more convenient to buy them.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Buy your vaporetto line 1 tickets now<\/a><\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Based on the number of days of your stay in Venice, you can choose among a variety of tickets sold by the public transit agency ACTV. In order to save up on transport money, we suggest you organize your schedule to make the most efficient use of your vaporetto tickets<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Vaporetto tickets available are valid for 75 minutes, 1 day, 2 days, 3 days or 7 days<\/strong> at the following prices:<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1466609917108{background-color: #a51d1f !important;}” el_class=”offerte”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”15033″ img_size=”300×320″ onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” link=”https:\/\/www.venezia-help.com\/ext\/line-1-skip-the-line-ticket-1-to-7-days_en-3″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Here you can buy your vaporetto tickets commission free!

Vaporetto line 1 offers a panoramic route along the Grand Canal, and one can discover the city on foot by getting off at the preferred stops. It is therefore possible to spend an entire day visiting the major points of interest of the city located on the banks of the Grand Canal both by vaporetto and walking.<\/p>\n Therefore, we’d suggest considering the distance of your destinations and how to reach them <\/strong>ahead of time<\/strong>, in order to choose the most suitable ticket for your needs<\/strong>.\u00a0 If you plan on travelling mainly by vaporetto to visit the historic center, perhaps adding a visit to the islands of the Venetian archipelago to your itinerary, you will probably take the water bus multiple times during the day. In this case if you use public transport at least three times during your stay, then you should consider purchasing either a daily or multi-day pass.<\/p>\n On the contrary, if you plan on walking to discover the old city, and decide to use public transports to reach only the more distant areas of Venice (depending on where you are) or to come back to your hotel, then a 75 minutes ticket for each travel should be the most cost effective choice.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”15860″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Vaporetto line 1 ACTV tickets are available both online and at the box offices located next to the vaporetto platforms in Venice. Most online websites allow you to purchase your vaporetto line 1 tickets directly on your smartphone<\/strong>, so you can skip the long queues in front of the box offices and go to the vaporetto platforms straight away. The opportunity to buy tickets online can prove very useful even when you’re alrealy discovering Venice. Tourists often risk missing their water-bus because of the long lines at the box offices or find themselves at stops with no ticket stands.<\/p>\n For this reason buying online is practical. Moreover, you\u2019ll have your tickets on your phone, so you won\u2019t risk losing or demagnetizing them by accident<\/strong>.<\/p>\n By purchasing your vaporetto line 1 tickets online you can keep them on your mobile or use the PNR code on the voucher to pick up your physical ticket at the machines displaying the Venezia Unica logo.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n You can buy vaporetto line 1 tickets in person at the ticket offices in Venice<\/strong> (usually located next to the platforms) or in authorized retailers in the old town<\/strong> (recognizable by the ACTV logo)<\/p>\n Buying tickets at the box offices can be useful if you need to ask for directions and information<\/strong>, however be aware that some sellers might not speak English<\/strong>. ACTV ticket offices in Venice are small box-offices located outdoors<\/strong>, and of course can have very long queues of tourists waiting<\/strong> in front of them. Buy your vaporetto line 1 ticket now<\/a><\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n If you visit Venice during fall or winter, you are likely to face the very typical phenomenon of high tide<\/strong>. In order to be fully prepared and equipped, we suggest checking the tidal flow<\/a>. If water reaches 140 cm, then the vaporetto line 1 rides will be temporarily suspended<\/strong>.<\/p>\n From October to March, fog covering the canals is also very frequent. Whenever visibility is lower than 150 meters, the itinerary of vaporetto line 1 could be limited to the Island of Sant’Elena<\/strong>, where you will find means of transport to reach the Venetian Lido.<\/p>\n These phenomena occur yearly, therefore our suggestion is to organize a flexible itinerary including a number of alternative destinations in case of bad weather and high tide.<\/p>\n Lastly, please note that the vaporetto line 1 is completely accessible to wheelchair users and strollers<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Vaporetto Line 1 ACTV offers a piscturesque view of the historic center while navigating along the Grand Canal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":15100,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[647],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nVaporetto Line 1 ACTV<\/h2>\n
