From the magnificent landscapes, full of ancient history and recent Bangkok chaotic city, but fascinating!!

Really magic! - My recent gondola tour in Venice was an absolute dream come true! The whole experience was nothing short of magical, and I cannot recommend it enough. The picturesque canals, charming bridges, and stunning architecture of Venice truly came to life from the vantage point of a gondola. Our gondolier was not only knowledgeable about the city's history but also a delightful entertainer, sharing fascinating stories and local anecdotes that added to the charm of the ride.

Charming Gondola Ride - Our gondola tour in Venice was the highlight of our trip! From the moment we stepped into the elegant gondola, we were transported to a world of elegance and charm. The intimate setting was perfect for a romantic outing, but I can see it being equally enjoyable for families and friends. If you want to experience the true essence of Venice, this gondola tour is the way to go!

If your purpose is to say you "did it" then this is fine - If your purpose is to say you "did it" then this is fine but if you are wanting an experience then this is not for you. As they say you get what you pay for. Our Gondolier chatted with another Gondolier the whole time so we had another group of people in a Gondola next to us the enitre time. The water taxi had a far more intimate experience but we have pictures to say "been there, done that."

It was nice to be back after 30 years. - I took my mother to Venice and booked this gondola. It was disappointing, it was 22 minutes and that is short for so much money. We expected more from this, it would take 30 minutes.

Must do in Venice! - If you are going mid day with the crowd, you will want to book as lines are long. This was my 2nd ride. My first I did in the morning on my own w no crowds so the water was peaceful and it seemed to be a longer ride going solo.

They advertise price match but its a lie - do not fall for it, it is a scam. - Booked Gondolier trip in Venice £148.22 for two people, advertised as a “magical 30-minute experience around the canals of Venice, book now to avoid being over charged locally, but if you do find it cheaper, we will price match”. The trip was rubbish, last 20 mins at most, only thing the gondolier said was to moan about the weight not being distributed evenly, basically went round a few corners and back to base, then another 5 mins just to park up again. The event organisers were advertising same trip for €36 pp. On complaining they refused to price match. So if you take my advice DON’T BOOK, it’s a scam, and pay locally, but go to a private Gondolier and not the rip off merchants we used. So much for the magic of Venice.

Waste of money - What a waste of money, we paid £148.22 for 15 minutes in the gondola. There was no narration and we went out of the docking area, up a side canal and back. To top it off the other couple on our gondola had paid €37. 00 each. I will be contacting Tripadvidor for a refund. Also it was not magical, just a conveyor belt. Do not book before you travel!
