Frequently asked questions
How do I get from Venice to Padua by private car?
About 45 minutes and 50 km from Venice Marco Polo Airport, about 40 minutes from Piazzale Roma, door to door. If you are staying in the historic centre, our water taxi takes you from the hotel to Piazzale Roma, where the car is waiting.
Is the train faster?
Between the two stations, often yes. The private car makes the difference door to door: no walking with luggage to the station, no change at the other end, and from the airport there is no direct train to Padua.
Do you also drive to Abano and Montegrotto Terme?
Yes, to the door of your spa hotel: about 55 minutes from Venice Marco Polo Airport.
Can we book the car by the hour in Padua?
Yes. For a day of visits, the Scrovegni Chapel and the Basilica of Saint Anthony, or a series of business meetings, the driver stays with you and the car waits between stops.
Do you also drive from Padua to Venice or the airport?
Yes. We collect you in Padua and drive you to Venice Marco Polo Airport, Treviso Airport, Piazzale Roma or the cruise terminal, and our water taxi can take you on to your hotel in Venice.
How much is a private transfer from Venice to Padua?
It depends on the car, the number of passengers, luggage and the time of day. Every quote is a fixed price confirmed before you book: send the form and we reply within a few hours.
