  • To visit St Mark's Basilica it is necessary to dress appropriately (no shorts, vests or tops) and backpacks are not allowed for safety reasons
  • The gondola ride might be suspended in case of bad weather. In such cases, you are required to go to the tour departure point in order to know whether the tour takes place or not and any alternative ways to use the service
  • Please note that, due to the particular morphological structure of Venice and the logistic problems resulting from it, we cannot guarantee that the whole tour is accessible to people with limited mobility. This means that people with walking difficulties and wheelchair users could not be able to access some parts of the itinerary

Great experience

Published on Sep, 2024

It was great! The length of the ride was perfect. Well organized too. We would have enjoyed a little singing by the gondolier driver.

So worth it!

Published on May, 2024

Honestly go do it! It's an experience that's worth the price. It cost us about €80. We did it for the experience "when in venice vibe" but it was 100% worth it. The guys who guide the gondolas are amazingly insightful. They will answer all questions, take pictures and just make the whole experience very enjoyable.

The travel guides had to...

Published on Jul, 2023

The travel guides had to make quick changes to this itinerary since it started to rain pretty heavy and the gondola ride was not possible. They rescheduled the ride until late afternoon and switched the tour of St. Mark's Basilica so we were able to do both. Quick thinking and coordination to make sure we didn't miss either.

Well worth it!

This tour was a must see while in Venice! Beautiful canals and we really liked hearing the live music from a couple of the boats!

Excellent gondola ride...
