Typically, passengers are allowed one carry-on bag and one personal item (for example a purse, laptop bag, or backpack). Personal items must fit under the seat in front of you.

Beware of overpriced gondola rides and unauthorized street vendors selling counterfeit goods. Scams involving unofficial water taxis charging excessive fares are also common. Always use official ticket counters and licensed services to avoid these issues.
