30-Minute Shared Gondola Ride across Smaller Canals

Glide through Venice’s lesser-known canals on a shared gondola ride, revealing the city's hidden charms.

Details

Step aboard a traditional gondola and glide through the peaceful canals that reveal a side of Venice many visitors never see. Pass quiet waterways, graceful bridges, and centuries-old facades while your gondolier shares stories about this timeless symbol of the city.

Sail by sights like the famous La Fenice Theatre and slip through the narrow canals near Campo San Moisè, where daily life unfolds away from the crowds. A glimpse of the Grand Canal and the striking Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute adds a final touch to this authentic Venetian experience—perfect by day or evening.

The gondola was amazing …. We met the guide who led us all the way to pick up the gondola … was very well organised … we went all down the side canals and ended up on the grand canal … which was amazing … would thoroughly recommend it … well worth the money.

Very good value for money. You get around 30 minutes on the gondola and go through the side streets and then into the main canal.

Punctual timetable and meeting point near the starting canal. Friendly gondolier and excellent "guide" who explained to us the buildings we saw passing by or the events that characterized those places. Very nice experience that I recommend to do at least once to everyone

While being in Venice it would be a waste not to try gondola ride. It was nice experience, however too expensive.

A worker from the company was waiting for us at the meeting point and kindly accompanied us to the starting point of the gondola ride. We shared it with a couple, in total we were 5 people. We liked it so much that we decided to take a second gondola ride. Venice is beautiful, spectacular from the Grand Canal.
