Booked the return ferry tickets directly with this group in Punto S and were informed that the return would be with them (Il dodge) from dock 3b in Venice. All seemed fine. After our stay in Venice, we wanted to take the ferry back to Punta Sabbioni at 7pm. We were at the dock there significantly earlier, around 6.20pm. It was raining heavily and with the wind we just presumed our ship was slightly delayed. A Il Dodge boat pulled in at 7.10pm which we presumed was ours. We were then told that the ship would not be going out again until 9 and that we had missed our 7pm sailing. When we said that we had actually been waiting for 40 minutes and no boat came in where we told that we should have gone on an earlier boat with another company! When we said that this had never been said to us we were unnecessarily snapped at, told to just go "get a coffee" and wait the 2 hours. So after changing his story twice he then told us it wasn't his problem and to take it up with his bosses. So unfriendly, unhelpful and rude. We wandered in the rain and managed to get once of the public water taxis home instead. Avoid this gang at all costs-they don't care about customers, change stories to suit themselves and will leave you stranded without a care.
Response from the operator: Gentile Cliente, ci dispiace sinceramente per l’esperienza che ha avuto e per il disagio causato dalla situazione. Abbiamo parlato con il marinaio presente a terra e, secondo quanto ci ha riferito, ha cercato di essere il più gentile e disponibile possibile. Non c’era alcuna intenzione di essere scortese o di avere un atteggiamento negativo nei vostri confronti; riteniamo però che, in quel momento, possa esserci stato un problema di comunicazione dovuto alla barriera linguistica, che potrebbe aver creato un malinteso. Ci scusiamo invece per un nostro errore: avremmo dovuto informarvi chiaramente che il servizio di ritorno poteva essere effettuato anche con la barca Marcopolo, e comprendiamo perfettamente la vostra frustrazione per non aver ricevuto questa informazione. Desideriamo comunque confermarle che la barca prevista per la partenza delle ore 19:00 era effettivamente presente al molo nell’orario stabilito. Ci dispiace che la comunicazione non sia stata sufficientemente chiara e che questo abbia contribuito a rendere la vostra esperienza negativa. Terremo sicuramente conto di quanto accaduto per migliorare le informazioni fornite ai nostri clienti. Cordiali saluti Il Dodge

Extremely unfriendly staff and unhelpful.
We were directed to the parking spaces in Punta Sabbioni and bought the ferry tickets on-site because we were already a bit pressed for time. We were informed that the departure is from dock 5 and upon returning to Venice, one should go back to where they arrived. In our case, that was dock 1A in Venice. We thought, great, that sounds good. The outward journey was okay; the ship was somewhat run down. The seats below deck were just chairs, which I found a bit strange, but oh well, it is what it is. After our stay in Venice, we wanted to take the ferry back to Punta Sabbioni at 12:45 PM. We were already there significantly earlier, around 12:20 PM. Time passed, but no ship appeared that would have gone to Punta Sabbioni. I asked a staff member from Il Doge on site whether it had already departed or if it was delayed. I was unnecessarily snapped at, told to just line up, and that a ship would come. The extremely unfriendly man explained the departure times on my ticket to me, as if I could not read them myself. Therefore, I inquired with another staff member of this organization where the ship was supposed to be. He also snapped at me again and tried to make me believe that I had overlooked or missed the ship. I wanted to explain the situation to him, but he constantly interrupted me and then threatened me, telling me to watch what I say. Another staff member told me, with a shrug because he was not sure himself, that the ship would depart from dock 3B. It is an outrageous impudence to speak to someone like that! There are not many docking stations in Venice, nor is this place so large that one could overlook these ships. And then to approach tourists like that and to threaten/insult them is simply unacceptable! Such incompetent and unfriendly people should perhaps not work in the tourism sector if they cannot control their emotions and cannot restrain themselves. We then returned by ship from Marco Polo. And we were not the only ones who apparently "overlooked" the ship and stood in the wrong place. Several families and other travel groups were affected by this impudent and extremely poor organization! My impression was that no one really knew what was going on and that the frustration they had was simply vented on the tourists.
Response from the operator: Wir bedauern zutiefst die Enttäuschung und die Unannehmlichkeiten, die Ihnen auf Ihrer Rückreise von Venedig entstanden sind. Wir bedauern insbesondere die Verwirrung beim Einsteigen, die Schwierigkeiten, klare Informationen zu finden, und vor allem das respektlose Verhalten unserer Mitarbeiter. Freundlicher Service und schnelle Hilfe sind uns sehr wichtig, um unseren Kunden ein sorgenfreies Reiseerlebnis zu ermöglichen. Die von Ihnen beschriebene unklare Kommunikation und der unhöfliche Ton entsprechen in keiner Weise unseren Standards. Wir nehmen Ihre Bedenken hinsichtlich der Ihnen widerfahrenen Behandlung sehr ernst, insbesondere die Probleme im Zusammenhang mit der mangelnden Koordination beim Abflug. Diese Vorfälle werden gründlich untersucht, um sowohl unsere Kundenbeziehungen als auch die Organisation unserer Dienstleistungen zu verbessern. Wir entschuldigen uns aufrichtig für die Ihnen entstandenen Unannehmlichkeiten.

Why this scores 50
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Punta Sabbioni Roundtrip transport to Venice and San Marco: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Venice.
How much does Punta Sabbioni Roundtrip transport to Venice and San Marco cost?
+
Prices start at $10 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Venice usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Punta Sabbioni Roundtrip transport to Venice and San Marco take?
+
Plan for about 0.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Venice is not rushed.
Is Punta Sabbioni Roundtrip transport to Venice and San Marco worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (2/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Venice, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Punta Sabbioni Roundtrip transport to Venice and San Marco?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Punta Sabbioni Roundtrip transport to Venice and San Marco suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 0.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Punta Sabbioni Roundtrip transport to Venice and San Marco?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Venice can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Venice and add a light layer if any part of the 0.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Punta Sabbioni Roundtrip transport to Venice and San Marco start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Venice within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Venice?
+
On Outty we rank every Venice experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Pasta and Tiramisu Cooking Class with Wine in Venice, Eating Venice Small Group Food & Drinks Tour, Venice Bacaro Food Tour: Eat and Drink like a Venetian. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Venice?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Venice?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
