This is a MUST-DO for Bostonians and visitors, alike. An amazing way to see one of the most beautiful parts of the city and to be amongst the sailboats with wine, cheese and gorgeous Itaian music is magical. Everyone would love this! |

This was my second tour with Gondola di Venezia. Both were with groups of friends as a send-off outing for a friend leaving the area. We happened to have incredible weather, and a glorious mid-afternoon sky.
The tour is leisurely and relaxing, and the gondolier, Charlie, is unbelievably nice and charming. He took so much care in explaining details about the hand-crafted boat, and offered us an adorable basket of treats. We felt like royalty! There were even tourists taking pictures of us as we sailed by.
I would absolutely recommend this to anyone looking for a unique way to see the city of Boston. It would be an incredibly romantic date, but is equally as fun and magical for a group of friends. Thanks so much, Charlie, and Gondola di Venezia! |

We were visiting Boston for our 39th wedding anniversary and I found the Gondola tour and thought it would be something fun and romantic to do to finish off our day. The Gondola ride was wonderful. The staff did whatever they could to make the night special for the two of us and it was. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to do something special and romantic |

The ride was wonderful; comfortable seats, romantic music, and a very friendly staff. Do yourself (and someone you love) the pleasure of a spectacular trip down the charles river in a authentic gondola |

I proposed to my girlfriend on the gondola. It was a beautiful afternoon (unseasonably warm actually) and the gondola provided the perfect romantic setting for popping the question. We had champagne and complimentary cheese, crackers, and chocolates, and rode around like we were royalty, soaking up the sun and the moment.
Definitely recommend for a date, anniversary, engagement, etc... |

This was something I planned for me and my girlfriends one year anniversary and I couldn't say one negative thing about it. First we get there and are guides greet us in a very friendly and comfortable manor. Then after getting us in are gondola with a basket of cheese and crackers, some nice chocolates, and a comfy blanket, we were given a brief but intresting history on the gondola we were riding in. Then we went on an amazing 45 min ride along the Charles river with the most romantic tunes. We kissed under every bridge until we reached an opening. Then we turned around and did it again! Are driver was amazing and we could hardly tell we were on a boat. After we returned we were given are custom Champaine glasses and photo. The perfect ending to an amazing night! P.S. The only thing is we wished we would have brought a bottle of wine or Champaine! |
