Details

Take a shared gondola ride through St. Mark’s Basin, where you'll glide past stunning islands and majestic palaces. Experience the artistic treasures of the Republic of Venice as your expert gondolier navigates the calm waters.

Along the way, drift through picturesque canals framed by centuries-old architecture and graceful bridges. Watch local life unfold on the water’s edge—quiet calli (alleys), occasional water taxis, and resident families—offering an authentic glimpse into daily Venetian rhythm.

Please note that this is not a guided tour —no additional guide boards the gondola. However, your gondolier will ensure a smooth, enjoyable ride while subtly highlighting the timeless beauty of Venice. Perfect for anyone seeking a peaceful, genuinely Venetian experience.

    Very good, welcoming, and very peaceful and calm gondola tour in the pretty streets of Venice Slightly short considering the price (almost 80€ for 2 people for 25min) but very good experience all the same

    Straight forward enough to find the meeting place and then a short walk to the gondola well organised in terms of splitting the large group into smaller groups for each gondola so the waiting time was minimal once we arrived at the departure point. The ride itself was great, loved the narrow canals and then the experience of entering the Grand Canal. It was wonderful to go past other gondolas, some with Italian singers on board. The trip definitely made our Venice day trip very special.

    Not sure what the lagoon city was about but think they just meant around the little canals. Well worth the money and saved us a lot of money than turning up on the day to book one with the gondola service :)
