Bridge of Sighs Tours

You can't see Venice without gondolas. Gondola ride is an absolute must, unbelievable how they push the long boat through the canals with those sticks, without hitting anything. It's a pity that the gondolier didn't tell much and certainly didn't sing O sole mio. A little more enthusiasm there would have been great. And the chance to take a photo with your partner as you board

This was fantastic and totally worth the money! My husband and I traveled to Rome, Florence and Venice in July 2018. We were on a budget and didn't want to bust the budget, so went with the "shared" gondola option and then splurged to have the serenade option. The experience was unforgettable and easily the best part of our whole trip! The singer and the man with the accordion had great chemistry and were constantly interacting w/ my husband and I. I thought the 20 mins sounded kinda short, but it ended up being the perfect amount of time. Do it at sunset around 7:30 if possible. Highly recommend this to all my family members and friends, it was simply enchanting and something my husband and I will never forget!

Amazing, friendly guide who was good fun and told us some really interesting things about Venice lovely people who joined us on the boat! Was a definite must, rounded our trip off perfectly to get away from the busy city and people and soak it all in with a few glasses of Prosecco.

Valentina was our tour guide and she was very knowledgeable. It was evident she loves Venice and you could feel her enthusiasm! She was also very patient with our group as there was flooding and it took a while to walk on the platforms to the Basilica.

A great welcome from our guide Thomas who really amused us with in addition really full of interesting details.a Venice seen differently. I, who am not very good at English, understood our guide quite easily who speaks very well and gently enough I find

One great attraction to complete the visit at the Doge’s palace and a greatly informed guide. Kristian gave a english and italian tour of the main rooms of the prison and explained the torture devices so nicely and fun to enjoy, for kids as well, since we had some in the group. Fantastic experience!

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.

We had a delightful ride with Diario. He was so proud of his family’s legacy and we were excited to hear the details of his fathers work. We rode in his family’s 32 year old gondola and he even pointed out his fathers home. It was fun to hear the gondoliers banter while riding the canal. It’s a very quick ride under the bridge of sighs and back again. Time flies when you’re having fun!
