The perfect way to appreciate the beauty, charm and colour of this unique city built on water, you will be enthralled by what surrounds you.

Feel part of an ancient Venetian tradition and experience Venice as the locals have for more than a thousand years. Once upon a time the most noble and wealthy of families would have travelled around by gondola — the slightly eccentric Peggy Guggenheim was the last person to have her own private gondola in the 1960's.

On this unique exploration of the Venetian romantic canals, unwind and relax into the gentle rhythms and movements of the Grand Canal, appreciating the skill involved in steering the gondola ride through the intricate waterways of Venice.

As you sit back and take in the views, you will inevitably become involved in the friendly banter of the gondoliers — as much a part of Venetian culture as the gondola itself!This charming gondola ride venice tour will take you one step closer to the romantic facades of the city and will enable you to understand what it was to be truly Venetian.

We booked a private Gondola which departed at St Mark's square. We arrived, queued a few minutes at the ticket desk andvthen went straight onto our gondola. Venice was really busy and I'm glad we prebooked as all other gondolas were sold out! There were others in Venice, nearer the station, however they went down the unknown little side canals, whereas we wanted to see the sights around St Mark's square. It was an unforgettable, albeit expensive, experience!
