The Gondola Ride experience was great, and was accompanied by a short walking tour before and a VR experience after, which gave a good insight into the history of the city and grand canal. We just wished the gondola ride could be a little longer, but at this price point it is certainly worth every cent.

The only negative note is that the docking area to get off the gondolas is not suitable and absolutely needs to be improved.

Our guide Emma was so friendly and enthusiastic about her city. The experience included a short walk and talk as Emma gave us some history of gondolas. The gondola ride was lovely and cheaper than hiring a private ride.
