Overview

A gondola ride is the most traditional, enchanting and unique way to explore Venice and experience its unique atmosphere. A tour through the canals and inner waterways of this city which will make us feel as stepping into a far, old time, still alive and pulsing in this magic corner of the Earth.
Let yourself slide along the peaceful canals of Venice, enjoying the silence away from the crowds and the picturesque views which can be admired only from this one-of-a-kind perspective.
By no doubt, a tour to come into contact with the deepest side of Venice.

Frequently Asked Questions

(7)

Q: Will I get seasick on Shared Gondola Ride in Venice?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Top10Adventures® over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
