Bus

Regular SITA buses (049 820 68 11; www.sitabus.it) from Venice (€3.35, 45 to 60 minutes) arrive at Piazzale Boschetti, 500m south of the train station.

From Padua you can get buses to Montegrotto Terme, the Colli Euganei and as far afield as Genoa. Often you are better off with the train.

Car & motorcycle

The A4 (TurinMilanVeniceTrieste) passes to the north, while the A13, which connects the city with Bologna, starts at the southern edge of town. The two motorways are connected by a ring road.

Train

The easiest way to Padua from Venice is by train (€2.70 to €10, 30 to 40 minutes). The station is about 500m north of Cappella degli Scrovegni, from where it’s a further 1km to the city centre. Local buses run into the centre from in front of the train station.
