Transfer / Taxi to Grado

Transfer to Grado

A transfer to Grado is something worth thinking about while you are still planning your trip. After all, this is where your comfortable holiday begins.

Grado is a small ancient town in a picturesque Adriatic lagoon, home to just over 8,000 people. Despite its small size, the town has plenty of sights. The only difficulty holidaymakers may face is the complicated journey from the airport by train and bus with several changes. For those who do not speak Italian, this can be a real problem. Fortunately, there is a service that solves it: a transfer to Grado, which you can book with "Taxi Transfer Service"!

How to get to Grado from the airport?

The nearest airports to Grado are in Venice and Trieste. Once you step off the plane, you can try to get to Grado on your own by local transport: a Trenitalia train or a scheduled bus. The first option is ruled out straight away, as there is no railway to Grado. The bus option means:

• departures from 5:00 to 22:50;
• a 30–40-minute interval between departures;
• a journey time of 3.5 hours.

European public transport is of a high standard, but a bus still won't give you the comfort and convenience you need. If you are not fluent in Italian, you will find it hard to buy tickets, talk to the driver, stow your luggage and so on. A much more expensive but far more convenient option is to take a taxi to Grado – right at the airport, but this approach has a number of drawbacks too.

Taxi to Grado

For those who have not booked a transfer, a ride in an Italian taxi can turn out to be far too expensive. The vast majority of drivers either do not speak English or pretend not to understand a word in order to get as much money as possible out of the customer. A taxi to Grado from the airport has other drawbacks as well:

• A limited number of cars. Every day, crowds of tourists try to get from the airport to the nearby resorts and spas, and there may simply not be a taxi left for you;
• Higher rates for intercity trips. Taxis in Italy are expensive as it is, and a trip from one town to another can cost a fortune;
• Fares depend not only on the distance but also on a number of other factors. You may end up paying almost twice as much if you get stuck in traffic, make stops along the way or travel in the evening.

You should also be aware that private hire services in Italy have their own rules, and it is difficult for a foreigner to grasp all the nuances. For example, you may be charged a "mark-up" for not speaking Italian, or refused a ride altogether without a prior booking. That is why the most reliable, affordable and dependable option has always been a transfer booked in advance, whether from home or once you are in Italy.
