Bellissimo - Our most luxurious gondola tour!

We had such a wonderful time on our gondola ride! It was a surprise for my husband for our 10th anniversary, and we both enjoyed it so much. Everyone was lovely to us, and our gondolier, Stefano, was the best. They all made sure that we had a perfect trip. We always try to do something romantic for our anniversary every year, but this was the best one so far. We highly recommend it as a date for any couple.

The tour was absolute amazing. The tour started at 7:00pm so the sun was just starting to set. In my opinion it was the best time to take the ride. All the snacks were very good and the accordion player was very good. I would highly recommend this to anyone!

This was a very unique way to spend a night out with my wife. She loved every minute of the gondola ride. We'll definitely do this again.

A combination 30th wedding anniversary and my wife's 50th birthday this was a great choice. Different and unique, we had a young Italian gondolier and a young lady accordian player. I realize the snack food that was included has to appeal to a wide range of customers, for us it could have been better but it did not take away from the experience. We went at sunset and drew smiles from onlookers. Prior to our tour we were told the story behind the gondolas in Boston. Handcrafted in Italy by master artisans whose ranks are fast dwindling these "original" gondolas are unique to Boston outside of Venice Italy. A BIG thumbs up!!

I was looking for a special present to give my lovely wife in celebration of our 27th anniversary, and couldn't think of anything I hadn't already done for her or bought her. I knew the perfect gift was just simply spending time together but was stumped on what kind of "date" would be something new for us. That's when I heard about the gondola tours on the Charles River. I wanted my wife to have the most enjoyable experience so I purchased the Bellissimo package. It was everything I had hoped for, and my enjoyment that evening was more about her happiness at being treated to something so romantic. The live music and apetizers on board added a nice touch. And the roses are gorgeous. Every once in a while I get it right. Thanks Gondola di Venezia, and Zerve! Yours truly, Erik Bates

This was a great experience. Everything from the chocolates to the live accordion player and the courteous gondolier. The message in the bottle was great. Gondolier dropped it in the Charles without me even knowing when it was going to be done. It just added to great night. I highly recommend them.

We had a perfect evening. We brought a picnic dinner to the Esplanade an then went on this splendid, relaxing , peaceful ride. The accordian player was unobtrusive and the music low key. An excellent way to spend an evening.

I could not be happier with my purchase of the Bellissimo Gondola tour! I proposed to my girlfriend on the gondola and it was the happiest night of our lives. The staff at Gondola di Venezia was both courteous and professional. Every detail was planned and executed perfectly! This was truly a unique experience that we will never forget.

I arranged a gondola at sunset on Memorial weekend to propose to my girlfriend. Everything was perfect. Beautiful warm spring evening, a very light wind, some champagne on ice. The accordion music was just right, not too disturbing. They provided a bouquet of roses, some cheese and biscuits, strawberries, and chocolate. As we glided along the water we just relaxed and really enjoyed ourselves. We started in a lagoon parallel to the river then after about 30 minutes were on the Charles itself. I proposed on the river, she said yes, and we're still on a bit of a high. The gondola guys were very professional throughout and I have no reservations about highly recommending it to anyone else. We also got a nice photo, and some beautiful champagne flutes as a keepsake. Enjoy!

Still haven't received the phots
