Road Genius compares campervan and motorhome rentals in Italy so you can pick the right vehicle, price and supplier. Venice Marco Polo (VCE) and Treviso (TSF) airports are the usual pick-up points for the lagoon area. Remember that historic Venice does not allow cars; you sleep and park on the mainland, then reach the islands by ferry, bus or train.
