• Three locks, nine mobile bridges, 33 km with a drop of more than 8 mt., make this waterway so important   that   sailing   times, with may vary, have been calculated on a seasonal average. Short navigation routes on Il Burchiello® can be replaced by bus transfer as a consequence of circumstances beyond our control.
• The scheduled guided tour in villa Pisani will be anticipated during the months of March and October, depending on the opening time of the museum. In case of special events connected to the National Museum, we substitute the visit with the villa Foscarini - Rossi.
• The main bus terminal SITA located in Piazzale Boschetti is at a 5 mins. walk from Padua railway station; easy   car parking close by.
• Should passengers arrive late at the meeting point in Venice, it is advisable to reach the motorboat Il Burchiello or MEDOACUS directly at Villa Malcontenta.
