Step aboard your private gondola and glide through the canals of Venice. Whether you want to meander through hidden corners or glide under famous bridges and sights – this tour satisfies all tastes. Fabio, one of the gondoliers, says, ‘Being a gondolier is so much more than operating a gondola. Over 400 hours go into getting a Gondolier license, learning the ins and outs of the canals, Venetian art and history. You’re really in the safest hands.’

The shortest tour focuses on the San Paolo district. Discover an intimate side of Venice and lesser-known gems. Canal-facing facades are a unique characteristic of Venetian buildings before streets came along – the canals were the streets – and they were a way of showing style and wealth.

If you want to continue to the Grand Canal you can choose the 1-hour tour and If you’re bursting to see Venice’s more famed locations, the 1.5-hour tour showcases the Rialto Bridge area and the longest ride adds St. Mark’s Square to the itinerary.

Our ride was very nice even though it was sprinkling out. It was 9am so not a lot of traffic. That was a plus. Would have been a 5 star if the Gondolier spoke some English. There was no explaining what we were seeing. Just him talking on his phone.

We went with our family including 3 adult children. It was very easy to find the location of Ingondola and TUI musement. The ride was excellent and our gondola driver, Adam, was friendly and informative. We would highly recommend. We went at 7 pm which was a great time to go and less crowded.

Fantastic Gondola Tour. This really is the best way to see Venice with your loved one. We had it booked for 5:00 pm but showed up in the morning because we saw that there was less people in the morning. The gondolier was able to reschedule us and off we went for the hour. He was able to speak various languages including ours and was very knowledgeable about the whole city without being intrusive. That is, he only mentioned certain places as we passed and kept our privacy paramount. Then we stopped and he said that we got got lucky! We then watched from our gondola as a gondola race passed by us. Of course I filmed it all and noticed that we had the best seats to see it. You will likely not get to see a gondola race when you go but wow, still a great unforgetable experience!

The itinerary on our reservation was for a 2 hour excursion while we only paid for a one hour tour which was misleading and unfortunate which contributed to confusion While our guide was very professional and helpful we would have hoped for more of a narrative on his part rather than just answering our questions. The scenery and routes through the neighborhoods was very good and provided for great picture opportunities

Our Gondola guide was super nice, offered us cover in the pouring rain/hail. Super easy to find the starting point. He took us down quiet canals and was extremely kind. Paid a good amount of $ for 30 minutes, glad we did it but probably wouldn’t do a second time.
Caution booking too far in advance

Don't trust the "weather dependant" claim. Booking too far in advance makes weather issues problematic. I called this morning to inquire about the gondola ride being cancelled due to pouring rain in Venice and a forecast for the same throughout the day but was told the gondola company would notify me if it was cancelled. They did not and it started raining within minutes of starting the ride. It poured, thundered and lightening Ed for 3/4 of the ride. The Gondlier was very nice but we are very disappointed in Viator for a misleading claim that "weather dependant" could yield a reschedule or full refund. Neither was offered.
A relaxing, memorable ride thanks to a great gondolier!

A trip to Venice isn't complete without a gondola ride, and you can find one just about anywhere along the Grand Canal. But to get the full experience, you need a gondolier with personality, passion and an intimate knowledge of Venice's quiet back canals. We were incredibly fortunate to get one of those in Daniello. His gondola, named Elena after his grandmother, has been in his family for three generations and it was clear that he loves what he does! Not only did he hum to us -- he said it was better than his singing! -- but he also entertained us with his humor as he pointed out historic and interesting sights along the way, stopped and got us a prosecceo to sip along the way and gave us a great restaurant recommendation. It was an amazing 40-minute trip we won't soon forget!
