We arrived too late, but were immediately allowed to take a seat in the gondola. The armadillo was very nice and they took another nice picture of us.

We had a very enjoyable gondola ride (one and only as newlyWeds) with our guide. Luckily the weather was perfect and the guide told us interesting facts about the different historically significant buildings along the canal as we passed them. The trip felt like the perfect amount of time for a short afternoon activity after we toured the Basilica and Palace all morning.

Venice traffic jam with Gondolers competing for space. Short ride, crowded and bumpy with all the traffic on the Grand Highway. Horribly expensive for a less than 30 minute ride.

An experience that should be lived at least once in a lifetime. Exciting, suggestive. I lived it with husband and children, and we were all enchanted
