See the canals of Venice on a Gondola!
As the city passes around you, your authentic gondola slices the canal water in a quiet rush. Glide along the Grand Canal and venture into small, peaceful waterways. Planning your ride in advance is the most cost-effective way to enjoy this essential Venice activity.
