Very complimentary and the experience for me and my husband was wonderful we loved it very much it was private and the serenade .. we really lived it was the package I booked. I was a little afraid because of the bad comments I had read but I think that everyone lives their experience differently....

We were expecting to enjoy the serenade by us; but the singer was doing it in another gondole, accompanying other three gondoles. We were the last.

We actually booked for a private gondole but unfortunately there were another couple with us thats too bad. It was our anniversary and we didn't want to share that special moment.

You will go on a delightful gondola ride through the Grand Canal of Venice where life has been deep-rooted to Venetian tradition and has remained an immutable city. The stunning buildings with their facades facing the canals have each a story to tell about Venice. Your experience of Venice from the serene waters of the canal will be heightened with a serenade. Your gondola will be a part of a flotilla of gondolas where one of them will have a singer and musician on board. You can enjoy the pleasant music as you cruise along the canals watching the city pass by. You will cruise along Canal Grande and minor canals around San Marco square and Rialto. The twilight and the city’s lights create a magical time when you can imagine Venice in all its glory!

In addition to everything else, you'll also have the delightful experience of being gifted a Carnival Mask, enhancing the overall enjoyment of the occasion.

This typical Venetian experience is bound to make an indelible impression on you by charming you with the city's sublime beauty.
