Loved it. Much better than just a gondola ride.

We went on the later serenade tour, and it was great! We were in the seats closest to the music, and it was the most romantic experience we had in Venice. The tour goes along the Grand Canal to the Rialto and then turns into a smaller canal, which gives you both the big and small canal gondola feeling. The music was romantic and familiar. He even sang "That's Amore," which is a song almost every American seems to know; everyone started giggling when he began singing.

This trip is well worth doing. We took the 7.30pm trip, and it was just getting dark - seeing the Grand Canal lit up was brilliant. The singer was pretty good as well. We cannot fault this trip at all. Good value for money.

Fabulous! Wwe loved it, the singer was wonderful, and we would do it again and recommend it to all my friends. The lights and the city were breathtaking, and not having to negotiate with the gondola drivers was worth everything. It's better to pay in dollars ahead of time than euros.

Just know that it is for six and only two people truly sit together. We sat across from one another and brought champagne. It turned out great but I hadn't realized it would be with others. The singing and accordio were great. Three gondolas go side by side or close by. Music in one of the three.

It was so lovely, and it was actually really nice going as a group because there was a sense of shared experience with everyone looking over and smiling at each other and laughing, etc. The singer serenading us was on our gondola, which was lucky. His voice was excellent, and people were leaning out of their windows to wave and watch. A perfect way to see Venice on a gondola if you're on a budget!

The gondola travels in a group with others. One of the boats had a singer and accordion player. It was truly magical and everything you think Venice is about. Plus, it was cheaper to book in advance!
