Short but sweet - 30 minutes flew by, in hindsight an hour ride would be ideal! We strolled through the canals and our driver hummed the entire time. It was a fun experience. We did get placed with another couple on the gondola, so if you’re looking for a private tour for just yourselves, this may not be the one. Overall we enjoyed it!

Expected more - The view was amazing and staff was friendly. I didn’t like that we had to share a gondola with another couple. There was no singing or interaction with the man driving the gondola. There was no music and the trip itself just went too fast. I feel they should last an hour for that money. It’s still very romantic.

It is not private. The... - It is not private. The canal is very crowded with other gondolas, like rush hour. If your goal is to say you did it, get a picture and see a little bit of Venice from the water, then it is fine.

Gondola Trip - You pick the ride up in a very easy location and everyone is helpful. But the Gondola driver was on his phone the whole journey which I think ruined the atmosphere of the ride. You go down some scenic routes and then onto the big canal and there’s lovely picturesque things to see it was a shame that he didn’t chat to us while we were on the Gonola or at least not be on his phone

We didn't make the tour.... - We didn't make the tour. I think tbey packed up and closed earky. I had texted from the water taxi to say we were running to get there. Not sure if people were in our group or not but if there wasn't then I guess they felt they could lock up and leave
