As a gift, we'll give you a traditional Carnival mask to wear during the gondola ride and take home with you.

The directions to get to the meeting point were requested them by me about 2 hours before the departing, and they were sent to me 20 minutes before. That made us miss the ride, and the lady at the counter was super rude. We travel from los angeles to Italy and Venice was one of my top destinations on my list. I am so disappointed with this company.

This was a terrible experience, as we didn't get to actually take the tour. After booking this tour with viator, it became 1 out of 7 tours booked, where the tour guide never contacted us for the tour. We wound up booking for the wrong date, but could've taken the tour if they had contacted us. Tried to contact the tour guide assigned to this tour but never got a response. I asked for a refund but was refused, even though it said we could ask for one, even though we were never contacted by the guide.

This was a horrible 1st experience in Venice. WE DID NOT GET OUR GONDOLA RIDE OR OUR MASK. We were lost and texted AND called for help and nobody answered. We were able to fins the restaurant and eat, but the vendor for the tour was very rude and unhelpful. We asked to reschedule and were told 👎no

Doing the gondola in Venice is a must! just be aware that the serenade and music is spread out and it’s not in each individual gondola. But they did a wonderful job at but they did a wonderful job at projecting the voice and music. Would recommend and carnival mask that’s included is beautifully made.

Unfortunately we did not take this tour. We had a difficult time finding the port to board the gondola. Every gondola spot directed us to an incorrect boarding and consequently we missed the boat. Your company was not at all willing to book us on another ride the next day which was clearly available. You offered a Private ride in which you stated we would have everything the same except for music. This did not happen. We had a silent gondolier, my grandchildren did not receive a mask and it was a most disappointing experience. We also had to pay 3 euros more...for what? we don't know.

Singer who was serenading us was in a different gondola and much too far to hear. Our gondolier was not very friendly. He did his thing and did not engage with any of the passengers during the entire 30 min ride. Venetian masks were handed to everyone at the start of the tour without any meaningful explanation. No one wore them during the ride. In summary. It was a very ordinary gondola ride. The experience did not live up to the expectation or the description on line. Not worth the extra money.

My mom and I were blessed enough to be in the gondola that the serenade duo would perform on which made the experience well above 5 stars. I don’t have an exact number of gondolas in our fleet as I was too enchanted by our serenaders however I would approximate 6 including ours. That said, other tour companies were a part of the reservation too meaning I am not sure if there truly is a capacity cut off. I’m just very fortunate to have the serenaders on my gondola as I’m not sure if the other gondolas could hear them. It was definitely a highlight to my Venice trip and highly recommended as the performers are BRAVA-10 star talent.

There was no serenade. One man 10 gondolas up sang 1 song that we heard the last 30 seconds of. Speaking with Viator rep we were given the impression we would have a singer with us. Even if not, hardly 10 boats away didn’t cut it. Don’t pay extra for serenade!!!!

We thought there would be some commentary about the area. It was pretty short and not very exciting. Would have been nice to have some serenade and some history and a longer ride.
