We like that it is off the beaten path. We went to the quiet part of Venice. We truly enjoyed the old buildings. Our gondolier expertly maneuvered the gondola. He shared little stories along the way. We did not expect him to do but we greatly appreciate it. He was very courteous and considerate. Unfortunately, we cant remember his name.

The gondola ride was sensational. Able to venture beyond the streets to see the real tradition and build of Venice. It was difficult to find the meeting point, which looked abandoned shop during our recce, so we were a little worried before. Then when we returned at the booking time it was ok. The ride itself was excellent. However the tour guide and gondola chap had little interaction with their clients which was disappointing. Seem to tolerate tourists, but they need to remember tourists work hard all year to earn their money to come and spend on holiday, and just a bigger smile and a few more words to their clients would make all the difference. Sadly this seems a common occurrence in Venice.

We didn't really sail in the small streets. Only between the taxi boats. There wasn't much to see on the route. In short, too much money for what it was. The only positive was the experience and a friendly man.

We thought that we would have the gondola to ourselves, but we shared it with another couple, which wasn't a big deal. But the other couple rushed into the gondola to grab the nice seats closer to the gondolier, so we weren't able to take any pics there. Overall though, I would recommend, but just know that you'll be sharing the gondola ride with up to 5 people max.

According to the ad we booked with this company as they offered 6 passengers. Fine only 5 but questioned.They were extremely rude and argued with us re our booking, paper vouchers and electronic proof of purchase. After an hour they realized we were not Leaving so put us in boats. 3 of us were with the musicians and had fun but the others couldn’t hear the music well as the gondolier was on his cell the whole time. Our gondolier was yelling at us when we were getting out. Take your chances

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!

Really special, the whole tour was among the Venetian canals and then flowed into the lagoon! Gondolier affable and skilled at his job, tour actually as described. Really great experience, definitely to be repeated.

We had a peaceful ride w/ Luca in the smaller canals. I wish we could afford a full hour! It was nice having him tell us general information about Venice and his own experiences. And he takes really good photos!

Unfortunately, it rained on the day the visit was scheduled. However, we were still able to take a gondola ride and it lasted 30 minutes as planned. We were less far than expected because of the weather, but the experience was worth it.

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

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 enjoyed the ride, but with hindsight it would have been nice to have a guide to point things out. You need to be there 15 mins before your booking, don’t rely on the water bus it took ages to get there, much longer than we thought even though we had done a check the day before so we knew where we were going. The gondolier was so skilled it is amazing to see him work.

Great experience if you want to enjoy the channels of Venezia out of the crazy and noisy streets. We did it at 6pm, which was super nice as we still had sunlight during sunset. The gondoliere was very polite and cheerful. He spoke italian, spanish and english. We recommend the private tour to have the most of it.

Great gondolier. Asked if we preferred to hear about the city buildings on the ride. We did and he provided interesting insights along the way but it was just right (he also gave time for my wife and I to talk and enjoy the scenery). For us the “off the beaten path” ride through old Venice was perfect. I wanted to avoid the grand canal.
