Venice Private Gondola Ride: Explore Hidden Canals and Sights
Tổng quát
Ngôn ngữ có sẵn
Vé di động
Step aboard your private gondola and glide through the canals of Venice. Whether you want to meander through hidden corners or glide under famous bridges and sights – this tour satisfies all tastes. Fabio, one of the gondoliers, says, ‘Being a gondolier is so much more than operating a gondola. Over 400 hours go into getting a Gondolier license, learning the ins and outs of the canals, Venetian art and history. You’re really in the safest hands.’
The shortest tour focuses on the San Paolo district. Discover an intimate side of Venice and lesser-known gems. Canal-facing facades are a unique characteristic of Venetian buildings before streets came along – the canals were the streets – and they were a way of showing style and wealth.
If you want to continue to the Grand Canal you can choose the 1-hour tour and If you’re bursting to see Venice’s more famed locations, the 1.5-hour tour showcases the Rialto Bridge area and the longest ride adds St. Mark’s Square to the itinerary.

5.00It was a lovely way to see Venice. Peaceful, great guide Eye opening as to the amount of boat traffic on even the back canals. The skill of the boatmen is amazing
This longer gondola ride...

5.00This longer gondola ride was great for seeing some of the quieter, narrow canals in addition to the Grand Canal. It was very relaxing and not rushed, which was a nice break.
Waste of time.

1.00Over rated. With how pricy the activity was, you would think the gondolier would introduce himself, and at least point out the items on the tour. Nothing. He was too busy yelling at all his friends on other boats. Waste of time to book in advance.
A very pleasant...

5.00A very pleasant experience! I feel like it's a "must-do" if it's your first time visiting Venice but not something you need to do over and over again. Our gondolier was knowledgeable and nice and gave us great insight into the city as we traveled through the canals. It was very hot when we were there and they had umbrellas for us to help keep the sun off.

5.00Because of the daytime heat when we visited Venice, an evening Gandalo experience was preferred. Very enjoyable.

4.00It's a good experience for a 1st timer who want the freedom for picture opportunities, but if you want to see the more exciting things then this may not be for you.
Nothing special - But Venice is beautiful!

3.00It was a nice ride, but could have easily just gotten a gondola that night for less than half. I just wanted to have something scheduled and did not know how readily boats were available. Guide didn't say a whole lot. We kinda of had to prompt with questions and I don't feel like we were taken anywhere exceptional/hidden.
The guy never spoke to us...

3.00The guy never spoke to us We didn’t know what sites we were seeing how much time we had etc. he was on the cellphone more than anything and never spoke a word until we were ready to get off
Glad we done it.
