Very enjoyable gondola ride through narrow canals. This is a very popular activity and the whole area was full of queuing visitors and gondolas. Only 5 or 6 people per boat, but sharing with strangers in such a cramped area can be uncomfortable.

Very well organised. Our guide was there to show us onto the Gondala. We had an 1/2 hour ride which was amazing as we travelled through narrow canals and under a number of bridges. Would certainly take the same trip again!
