Kamfish642 Posted March 24, 2023 #1 Share Posted March 24, 2023 We are an upcoming Seabourn cruise with a port call in Venice. However, it is my understanding looking at other posts that the ship will dock in the commercial port of Fusina, on the mainland across the lagoon from Venice. We have been to Venice, and Italy in general, several times so we are not interested in any of the Seabourn tours listed. I was not able to get any answer via the Seabourn chat feature on whether Seabourn will provide complementary transportation to/from Fusina to Venice proper.

Sir PMP Posted March 25, 2023 #2 Share Posted March 25, 2023 No, just take bus (water) #16, 25 minutes across to Venice. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Vineyard View Posted March 25, 2023 #3 Share Posted March 25, 2023 We have a cruise scheduled this May from Fusina for Venice. We have been informed that we will need to take Seabourn transportation. I believe it is a bus. We are to meet at the old cruise terminal if coming from Venice. I am not sure about if directly boarding from the airport as we will be staying in Venice several nights prior. Fusina is not open to independent travel. At least, that is what information we have been provided. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's my understanding that cruise passengers aren't allowed to wander through the Fusina docks for safety/security reasons. Even if they could, it would be about a 1.5 mile walk, along roads with mostly no shoulder or sidewalk, around to the dock for the #16 water bus. Look more closely at a satellite map view of the area... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of which cruise line is using Marghera or Fusina. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
