When you wish to visit Venice, please remember that your train station must be heading towards Venezia San Lucia and not Venezia Mestre. The moment you alight, a beautiful river broadwalk sight awaits you. In addition, you get the touristy feel.
On the other hand, Venezia Mestre which is a stop before Venezia San Lucia for trains heading towards Venezia San Lucia is a serious industrial town. There are somedays you have no choice but to be at this town though. For me, my train to Florence started at this serious town and I had to catch a regional train from Venezia San Lucia to Venezia Mestre just to board the train to Florence.
So make sure you know which Venezia stations you need to head to.

Buy train ticket in Italy

Taking trains in Italy is not an expensive option and if you plan prudently, you may not need to purchase the RailPass e.g. Eurail. I personally love the Eurail having used their service for my Europe trip previously but I dropped this option after careful calculation and consideration. One of the major reason is because even with the Eurail pass, I still need to pay (variable) seat reservation charges for those Eurostar trains (EScity). Check here (Eurail website) for the variable seat reservation charges which ranges from €3 to €15.
