==How to get to the VPC (the most common way)==

[[Image:Rialto_Mercato_1.jpg|left|thumb|200px|The boat stop where you will disembark from your vaporetto.]] [[Image:VPC_door.jpg|right|thumb|150px|The door to the VPC.]]

Take '''Boat Line 1''' down the Grand Canal to the '''Rialto Mercato''' boat stop. Disembark and take a right, walking towards the Rialto Market (Campo de la Pescaria). You will skirt along the southwest side of the market (with a view of the Grand Canal), and head for the bridge after you walk underneath the arches of the building that constitutes the roof of the covered fish market. Cross the bridge and walk along the Fondamenta de l'Olio (still along Grand Canal) until you reach Calle dei Boteri (1st left). 
Walk all the way down '''Calle dei Boteri''', then take a right and walk through the little square and down the very narrow street which emerges onto the Calle de le Carampane. Take a right. There will be a restaurant on your right. Walk past the restaurant until you come up to a bridge. Do not cross it, but walk to the end of '''Fondamenta de le Tette''', look for number 1932/A and the WPI label. Knock on the door.

==How to get to the RIALTO MERCATO boat stop from airport==
When you land at Venice “Marco Polo” airport, you have two options to reach the '''Rialto Mercato''' boat stop: 
 
'''1 - by land:''' you need to get to '''Piazzale Roma''' with public bus line 5 ([http://www.actv.it/pdf/urbano/U-5.pdf time table] / [http://www.actv.it/pdf/piante_automobilistico/5-UM.pdf bus roadmap]), from '''Piazzale Roma''' take pubblic boat line 1 (direction Rialto) and disembark at '''RIALTO MERCATO'''

'''2 - by water (venitian like):''' you can use water public boat service '''ALILAGUNA BLUE''' ([http://www.alilaguna.it/lineablu.html time table and roadmap]) to reach '''Fondamente Nuove''' boat stop, then follow path on map below (Figure 4). This is the easiest way... From Ca' d'Oro take pubblic boat line 1 (direction Rialto) to '''RIALTO MERCATO''' (one stop); alternatively you can take "Gondola Traghetto" and cross the Canal Grande with a Gondola!!
