Are you looking for the best way to get to Venice from Treviso airport?
There’s an increasing number of people arriving at the Venice Treviso Canova airport (TSF) instead of Venice Marco Polo airport, which is the main Venice airport.
In fact, if you start looking at the flights online, you might find some good flight deals with companies such as Ryanair and Wizz Air to Treviso instead of Venice.
Just to clarify, this only counts when flying in from European cities such as London, Manchester, Paris, Brussels, Dublin, Bristol, Berlin and a few other cities!
If you’re flying from New York, for example, your arrival airport will still be Venice Marco Polo, unless you’ll stop somewhere else in Europe before getting to Venice.

It can take 35 minutes to get to Venice by car and you have both the option to get there by taking the motorway A27 or Via della Libertà. If taking the motorway there’ll be a toll to pay.
During peak hours the motorway is the best solution to not get stuck in the traffic. You can park the car either in the Tronchetto car park or at the City Parking Garage, near Piazzale Roma.
