Was a little hard to locate since it is a pop up kiosk verse actual place. More of a large flag and a line of people. The guide was pleasant.

Very good for the price it is, opposite of maybe the 100€ that ask you the private gongoliers, here you get probably the same experience for not even half the price. Plus in the end you get VR tour of how was Venice back in the days for free, so what can you ask more for? I definitely recommend this tour.

The time in the gondola is quite short, it's a shame and our gondolier didn't have the typical outfit but the ride is nice. In addition, the initial visit in the streets of Venice with the guide and the experience with the virtual reality headset was rather nice

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 whole thing was amazing. The knowledge that was shared to us was great and very impressive. Getting some information before we went on the gondolas was wonderful. The length of the ride was perfect and gave us a good look around at different areas. I I joyed the little museum at the end and especially the virtual tour.

The gondola right was just perfect. Not too short, not too long, just right. The view in the Grand Canal is superb, and the narrow canals that the ride takes you through is quiet and calm. It was off season so not crowded, and the price was great. I booked last minute because wasn't sure of the weather, it had been raining all morning, but the weather held up and we had a super ride.

Our guide Elizabeth was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about sharing the history of Venice the tradition of the Gondola. The virtual reality experience at the end was very cool although my daughter’s equipment didn’t work so she missed out on that.
