Did not feel it was worth the money. Gondolier talked on his mobile phone for almost the whole trip.

Although it was a bit difficult for us to get to the meeting point, there was a guide who later took us to the starting point. The gondolier was very friendly and entertained us with anecdotes and comments about Venice since the gondola was exclusively for the four of us.

Was worth the money for scenery. The gondolier didn’t speak but we didn’t pay for a tour guide on top but amazing views for photos and definitely worth a private gondola for that

Great experience, totally worth it to pay for the private experience, fast service, skip-the-line and easy to find. We were 4 and had a great moment on the almost 30 minutes ride.

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!

I booked a gondola ride for Venice. It worked perfectly, presented the voucher by mobile phone the next day, got a ticket and got a great route description to the gondolas. It was beautiful and very easy.

It was very nice that we were able to schedule a ride in advance but if you are traveling to Venice at a slower time, I would just recommend finding a gondolier while you are walking around
