We loved our gondola trip and especially our photos with Filippo, who was very attentive and friendly. He found us some really nice places to take photos in complete privacy, without the crowds we wanted! I highly recommend

Good-humored and friendly gondolier, the trip took us from the Grand Canal to the side canals, which we really enjoyed. It was very nice and I can recommend the tour!
