This was the most magical experience we could’ve asked for! It was the cherry on top for our Italian honeymoon ❤️

Trip took you around the back of buildings with no sites to see. The serenade was on another boat and when I asked they said it says in the statement in surroundings boats. Also other guests had their backs to their surroundings. Dissatisfied. People nice.

Beautiful experience, we got to go in the gondola with the serenade so it was a beautiful experience. Must do when I Venice!!!

Unfortunately this experience ended up being a disappointment. The ride itself was not 30 minutes but 20. Our driver talked loudly during our ride and was dressed in sweatpants and a sweatshirt.(Not the traditional gondolier outfit we saw everyone else in.) The serenade was in another gondola which we could hear off and on. I had high hopes for this experience and it really fell flat.

Being serenaded while on the Gondola, in Venice with my whole family. So unreal experience one in a lifetime trip

Serenade was in our boat and a romantic time with just the 2 of us - just wish it could have been longer.

A wonderful experience but be prepared to be bold with your driver. It's a must do but they will bully you into a 17 minute ride for 100 Euros (after 7pm) although their sign states its 30 minutes. It's very touristy (WELL worth the novelty of it) but you can easily be taken advantage of.

Informed was a flotilla of gondolas with shared musician singer. Was not 30 min. 20 around the block. Only 1 couple on boat will have that sit close to each other experience because they need to balance. Understandable. However what was really disappointing was gondalier talking loudly to passing gondolas. Singing was 4 gondolas back and couldn’t hear him. Overall a waste. Book away from grand canal and not with this company. They never stopped and circle singer, never saw him and barely heard him.

I am sure it was lovely. The flooding and no gangways impeded us making the destination on Time so we missed it. Not willing to provide a refund though the trip coordinator who lives there barely made it on time. We were there just 4 mins late.

If you’re gonna do a gondola ride , do this one! Trust me, don’t waste your time and money on the other ones.
