Taxi Boat Grado

Explore Grado’s lagoon in style

Private water-taxi service offering personalized lagoon tours—from short scenic cruises to extended excursions with island stops—for an authentic, elevated Grado experience.

Taxi Boat Grado is Grado’s premier private boat service, offering tailor-made lagoon excursions aboard a classic Venetian-style water taxi. Operated by Mariel and Captain Giuliano, the service caters to couples, families, and small groups (up to 18), guiding guests through hidden lagoon channels, casoni, and islands. Choose from immersive experiences—whether it’s a scenic hour, a reflective sunset cruise, or a full-day adventure with lunch stops on Porto Buso or a visit to the sanctuary on Barbana Island. Their wooden-hulled boat, with its refined interior and comfortable seating, makes every journey feel exclusive yet welcoming.

Insider Insight

Book the full 4-hour Lagoon & Porto Buso itinerary or a leisurely lunch stop at Trattoria ai Ciodi. For a moodier charm, choose the Sunset Experience—80 minutes of golden-hour serenity. Cabin seating is stylish yet intimate; a glass of prosecco on board at dusk makes it truly special. Morning and late afternoon cruises offer magical light and quiet waterways.
