Transfer in Venice from Marco Polo to ship - Cruise Line Fans: Cruise Forum, Reviews and Chat From Real Cruisers

I'm checking on best way to get to Ruby Princess in October, from Marco Polo Airport to the ship check-in point.
I have a quote for limo at 53 euros, for 2 people and luggage, (which is better than cruise line transfer by coach). Would a land taxi do the same? What would be the cost and would they take credit card? (Don't want to cope with ATVO coach to Piazza de Rome, plus taxi from there). Water transport nice but too slow, when one comes in jet-lagged. Any information?

I am not an expert on this but could not resist making a comment. I think €53 is a really good price. I am going to Venice for a land vacation next month and have done lots of research. I'll check my friends and see what a water taxi would cost, but my guess is it would be more expensive. When do you arrive at MP? Lee
