Exploring Grand Canal by Private Gondola Ride

Take a private ride in a gondola to experience the romance of Venice. See historic palaces and bridges from the water as you travel down the Grand Canal and some of the city's smaller waterways. On a traditional gondola for up to six people, you can experience the romance of Venice in a more intimate setting that is only for your group. Pick a time that works best for you to leave the Campo San Luca. Gondola rides are available both during the day and at night, when you can admire the illuminated monuments. To get a look at some of the historic buildings from the water, take a trip along the renowned Grand Canal.

You can experience the romance of Venice being carried on a traditional gondola for up to six people, in a more intimate setting that is only for your group.

Pick a time that works best for you to leave the Campo San Luca. Gondola rides are available both during the day and at night, when you can admire the illuminated monuments. To get a look at some of the historic buildings from the water, take a trip along the renowned Grand Canal.

You can get away from the crowds of tourists by going down some of the smaller canals. Your gondolier will gently guide you through the city's historic center aboard the city's most traditional mode of transportation as you pass the Gothic façades of palazzos. Your amazing gondola ride will come to an end as you glide back to the starting point.

Important to know

  • The duration of the gondola ride depends on the discretion of the Gondolier
  • The ride might last less than 30 minutes, it depends on how busy the canals are
We enjoyed the gondol ride through Venice with our gondolier who was Nice to tell us about the history and tips on where to eat, which was a great Italian restaurant.

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

Very smooth system. They also kept our baby strollers at safe place and returned us back at the end of the ride.

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.

The view is incredible. Th gondola itself was nice. The gentleman maneuvering the gondola was nice but did not speak much besides telling us his name. Next time I would opt for a gondola ride that specifically states conversation or music or at least pointing things out is included.

Good experience on Gondola. 30 mins go by fast for the price paid, it is certainly an expensive ride. Our Gondolier is great, he was very skillfull, going around tight corners in the narrow river lanes. I'd highly recommend this for the beautiful views and experience.
