Piazzale Roma is the last stop before you enter Venice proper and it's by foot or paddle only. Here you will find the bus station, train station, and the depot for water taxis to take you into the city. The bus lines travel throughout the Venice area, as well as to Chioggia, Adria, and Padova. There are lines to and from the Venice Marco Polo Airport, the Treviso Airport, and the Piazzale Roma is in close proximity to the to the cruise ship terminal making it an ideal location to pick-up a rental car in Italy if you are arriving by boat.
On your next vacation to Italy, an international driver's permit (IDP) is now necessary to drive around the area. Although some rental companies may let you drive your vehicle away from the lot with no IDP, we highly recommend you travel with one because it is required by law. Seeking additional information concerning IDPs and where you can aquire one? Visit our International Driver's Permit FAQ page and guide to obtaining an IDP.
