Getting Around by Traghetto

Many tourists are unaware of the two-man gondola ferries that cross the Grand Canal at numerous strategic points. At EUR .50, they're the cheapest and shortest gondola ride in Venice, and they can save a lot of walking. Look for traghetto signs and hand your fare to the gondolier when you board.
