The first station that all Venice-bound trains
enter is the Venice-Mestre Rail Station. This station does not bring you
to Venice, but rather Mestre, mainland Venice.
The rail station is located in Piazzale Favretti 1 - 30170 Mestre
Tel. 041-930792 - Fax 041-928513 / 041-784440
You can get to the city from the station by taking the city bus or by
taxi (Call a taxi: tel. 041.936222).
Santa Lucia is Venice's Train Station. It is connected to the rest of
Italy with Eurostar trains, Intercities and Interregional and local
trains.
Inside the station there are trolleys for your luggage which can be
taken up to the waterbus stop by using the side exit of the station,
thus avoiding the steps outside the main exit.
You can leave your luggages at the left luggage office (near platform
14), open daily from 6am to midnight. If you need help transporting your
luggage in Venice, you can phone the Cooperativa Trasbagagli
(tel.+390415203070).
For detailed information on train timetables and ticket prices you can

Once you are out of the train station, you can decide to begin your city
tour on foot or by waterbus.
