Private Gondola Ride in Venice

Make your way to the starting point near the S. Maria del Giglio vaporetto stop in central Venice. Climb into a sleek, black gondola (up to 6 people in your group) to begin your unforgettable private gondola ride.

Glide through Venice's romantic canals for a unique perspective on Venetian palaces and bridges. Travel through this storybook city the way only the wealthy and nobility were able to – by gondola. The last person to have her own private gondola in Venice was Peggy Guggenheim in the 1960s. Today, gondola rides are available to anyone.

Listen to the friendly banter between gondoliers as you drift from one canal to the next. Experience Venice as the Venetians have for more than 1,000 years.
