Gondola needs

The gondola could be freshened up. The chair onboard was broken. Cushions need to be replaced

Disappointed

I was not aware that we were sharing the gondola. We arrived and ended up sharing it with 2 other people. Luckily they were nice and we talked and took each other’s pictures. Our driver did not say one word to us or sing any songs. When we were taking photos he would look away and at one point he was on his phone. What a disappointment! I would choose a different company next time. I’m just thankful the ride was only 30 minutes. They also rushed us getting in and getting out of the gondola. I don’t recommend taking this tour.

Gondola ride

We enjoyed the gondola ride and once off the main canal it was peaceful. Just one thing when you get to the main ticket office/pickup point change your voucher to a ticket at one of the offices.

I would rate this as zero...

I would rate this as zero stars but I had to select one star to get to the comments. Our gondola driver did not greet us as we got on the gondola. He did not speak to us once to tell us a little about what we were seeing. He did however speak to the driver of the gondola in front of us the entire time. It was a heated discussion. It was not relaxing in any way and it was extremely loud with that conversation. When we returned they were very quick to ask for a tip. We should have been given a refund. Not a good impression for our first visit to this beautiful city.

Great experience

This was a very special experience, which we will remember. Expensive, but worth the money.
