I will be in Venice in October and we are staying 5 nights before our Viking cruise. Our cruise leaves out of the port in Chioggia. Because we did not book our flights through Viking we are on our own for the transfer. Does anyone know of a transfer service that's completely by water that takes you all the way to Chioggia? It could involve a stop or change at the Lido Island, which is fine, I just want to know if it's possible. Otherwise I'll probably just book a private transfer/cab from Pizzale Roma. Our hotel is actually closest to the S.Marco Zaccaria Piers.

Vaporetto

Or book a water taxi on the official site:

Take the No 1 boat to Lido S.M.E. then change to the No 11 boat to Chioggia.

Sam and Christine thanks so much for the information. After much consideration we're thinking that we'll just do a Car Hire we will have luggage and it will be a vaporetto trip at a minimum to get to piazole roma. In looking at the the tables that Sam provided a link to it looks like once on the Lido there will also be some bus involved. Given that we will have luggage larger than just a carry-on it may be simpler to get a car. Although after emailing our hotel,l in Venice, the locanda al Leon, which is one out of Rick Steves book, they suggested that they would help us find the best method. We will be in Venice for 5 days / 4 nights prior to the cruise. However I'm welcome to get more feedback on this topic so anyone that's done such a thing please feel free to send a reply. Just love the Rick Steves forum.
