Public Transport in Venice

As an avid public transport enthusiast, it was incredibly interesting to traverse the archipelagic city of Venice by Vaporetta (the city’s water bus system). Although expensive and often crowded, it’s an incredible way to see the city- and fascinating to compare to conventional land-based transit systems.
