Vienna To Venice - October 29 - Day Trip

I%26#39;m hoping someone could suggest the easiest and most affordable means of getting from Viennat to Venice on October 29th. I am hoping to travel during the day via train, bus, or renting a car - depending upon which makes the most sense %26amp; is the most cost efficient. Any reccomandations would be greatly appreciated!

Do you really want to make a day trip to Venice? It is at least 7 h one-way!!! There are trains from Vienna to Venice, look up at www.oebb.at, the official site of the Austrian Railways - if you can, try to get the special offer for 29 Euro. For this you have to book a certain connection. If you are not able to get one, just buy a ticket and go, but it might be more expensive. Buses are not a good option (see eurolines.com - very slow, very few connections). Renting a car might (or might not) be a better decision cost-wise if you are a group (3-4 pers.) but bear in mind that Venice itself is not accessible by car.

You want to go to Venice for just one day? Or travelling from Vienna to Venice during the day?





For rail timetables, have a look at www.oebb.at (choose English on top). Enter From Vienna to Venezia S. Lucia. There are two trains during daytime (6:30 and 15:30) and it takes you about 7 hours to Venice.

Sorry, I mis-spoke in the original request. I am looking to travel during the day %26amp; stay in Venice once I arrive. Thank you both for the links - I will look at them now.
