Arriving to Italy Alone...

Should you be arriving alone with different arrangements from a QueensLander transfer, you should be able to get to your hotel without too much trouble. Generally, there will be transportation options available in or as you exit the airport, such as a train terminal within walking distance, or a taxi service (for Venice, a private water taxi or a public boat transfer, also known as the "Alilaguna").

If you go by taxi, just tell the driver the name of your hotel and the street address, such as ―Hotel Dei Mellini, ―Via Muzio Clementi, 81. You may wish to have this written out in advance to simply hand to the driver. The word ―Via, meaning ―place, or ―by the way of, will precede most street names. The street number appears at the end of the address. Be prepared to give the driver a nominal tip, but check the exchange rate first. Remember, it‘s not play money, and you don‘t want to tip too much. A polite ―Grazie' (pronounced GRAH-tsee-eh) or ―thank you should also be rendered.
