| This company is GLBT friendly! My girlfriend and I had a wonderful time.
The weather was perfect, the gondola was quite comfortable, the view was amazing, and the gondalier was charming.
We highly recommend this tour! |

| The driver was nice, kind and knowlegdeable. I would do it again but gondola tour are rather expensive, plus on top of all that you have to tip. |

| It is very romantic being on the river, pretty much by yourself and without any boat noise! They also provide the "extra" touches, cheese and crackers, ice bucket and
glasses if you bring wine or champagne. |

| As the fall sun was setting, I got down on one knee and asked my girlfriend to marry me. Even now, I can still recall the sun reflecting off her lovely face as the word, “Yes” echoes in my ears. We definitely had an amazing and memorable gondola experience. Furthermore, the gondola staff was very polite, accommodating, and professional. I highly recommend everyone to take a “Boston Gondola Tour!" BLB |

| With champagne chilling on ice, cheese & crackers and a rose for the ladies, we embarked on our ride. With soft music in the background, Marco explained the origin of the boat and how few boats and gondoliers there were outside of Venice.
We enjoyed a wonderfully peaceful view of Boston from a different vantage point. Having grown up in the area, it was surprising to find such a wonderful activity in Boston. I highly recommend the tour for anyone wanting a quiet, unusual view of Boston. |

As good as (or maybe better) than Venice!

| I did not review my Bacio Excusion back in May because all the reviews were so positive already. I didin't feel like I had anything to add. This summer I went to Venice, Italy and was astounded how
#1 expensive the gondola ride was (no ice bucket for our wine, no cheese, chocolate, and crackers, no romantic music playing in the background!!)
#2 crowded the tight alleys were (we were a little too close to the bugs crawling up the sides of the walls)
#3 dirty the back "alley" canals were
#4 insane the slimey gondoliers were (ours NEVER shut up and made fun me kissing my husband!)
Having said this, no one can deny that Venice is unique.
If you can't make it to Italy, know that you are receiving a highly romantic and top quality trip with the gondoliers in Boston. The boats are kept in PRISTINE condition, our gondolier Steve/Stephan had just the right balance of information for the tour of Boston and knew when to back off so that we could enjoy our romantic sunset moments together. This is a great way to see Boston at sunset. The park is perfect, too! Bravo, Boston! |

| I suprised my boyfriend of one year on a romantic date and he very much enjoyed it. He is not the type to organise suprises so he was very suprised when we got there and he realised what we were doing, he never heard of them in boston. We live in Quincy so it was nice just to go so close to something that felt so far away from Boston, for a one hour ride. It was so peaceful and just so romantic. I highly recommend it to couples or it would even be a beautiful gift for someone.

| My girlfriend and I went on the gondola after dinner in the North End. Itwas the perfect compliment and ending to our night. The boat was beautiful, the ride amazing and the views fantastic. It was my girlfreinds birthday so he even sang her a beautiful song. I highly recommend |
