It was such a nice change of the pace of Boston life. Relax and enjoy the beautiful music from the accordian as you peacefully manuver down the St. Charles while enjoying your champagne and delightful snacks. Kissing under each bridge is a must! The music is the best! Would do it again and next time for a longer length of time. Now we want to go try Venice gondolas. |

The gondola experience was a surprise gift for my wife's birthday. The whole trip was wonderful from the pre-departure meet-and-greet to the smooth float on the Charles. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a unique experience for a special occasion. |

The gondola ride was awesome. Yes, a bit pricey, but it was worth every penny and second. A very romantic ride on the Charles makes you forget where you are. Unbelievable! |

Unfortunately, we had our Goldola ride cancelled again because of suspected bad weather. The first time that they cancelled (our anniversary-- it was going to be a surprise), the weather was actually beautiful. The second time was cloudy. However, it is hard to predict the weather...
On a positive note, they did agree to refund my ticket after the second cancellation. I may consider trying this again, but it will not be as nice as it could have been if it was a surprise on our first anniversary. Unfortunately, that chance will never come again. |

A great way to celebrate a special day. It was a birthday surprise for my wife and she also thought the Gondola ride was a wonderful idea. We arrived about 15 minutes early. Our accordian player greeted us, chilled our wine, and told us we would be ready to go right on time. After a short intro by our gondolier regarding the history of the gondola, etc. we were off on the Charles. A lot of smiles and picture taking greeted us from the shores as we passed by. We enjoyed the wine, as well as the provided cheese and crackers, strawberries, and chocolates. Our accordian player sang in Italian and played great songs to go along with the ride. We were out on the Charles for 50 minutes, as described, and left very happy. I read alot of reviews before booking. Spending this kind of money, I wanted to be sure that the experience would be worth it. I can safely say that I don't really understand the few negative reviews on this site. The staff of Boston Gondola went out of their way to make sure everything was taken care of and we had a wonderful time. No regrets! |
