I took my girlfriend as a surprise for our 1-year anniversary and it was a wonderful experience. Being out on the Charles on the still water far enough away from land to have it be silent except for the accordion music was very relaxing. It's beautiful to see downtown that way. It was all very romantic, with details like chocolates and strawberries and (fake) candles. The staff was very friendly and I'm glad we opted for the live music because I can't imagine it being a recording. I definitely recommend this tour! |

Our gondola ride thoroughly exceeded our expectations. My husband and I suprised my parents with the ride and the four of us had a wonderful time. The gondolier was so friendly and the ride was great. We had a singer/acordian player as well and she was fabulous - it truly added to the entire experience. This is a relaxing, peaceful, romantic way to see the beauty of the city. Thank you so much! |

I can't imagine a more delightful way to celebrate a 25th wedding anniversary than taking a gondola ride on the Charles River. From the first moment, our gondolier and musician did a perfect job of making us comfortable, providing a romantic and friendly atmosphere, and treating us to a captivating hour. Nibbling fresh strawberries while sipping champagne, listening to Italian songs while slipping under bridges (with a kiss for good luck), and watching the stars and city lights compete in a twinkling contest made for a very memorable evening. We highly recommend Mezza Luna!!! |

This trip was a surprise 35th wedding anniversary gift to my husband. My sons and I had fun planning and scheming. My husband was thoroughly surprised and loved it esp bec there was a live accordian player. My husband took accordian lessions when he was a young boy and still talks and laughs abt his "playing"days so this was special to have the accordian player, which by the way did an awesome job. I highly recommend this little cruise down the Charles for any occassion or just for fun. It was nice that we brought our own libations which the cheese, crackers and chocolates complimented. Thanks for providing an event which was so totally out of character for me to do. |

I got this gondola ride for my girlfriend for our anniversary. We arrived there and gondolier was extremely nice to us and giving us a brief history of the gondola. Then we where introduced to our accordion player. We then set off and it was amazing. They give you a little basket with cheese and crackers and we where able to bring our own bottle of champagne on the boat. The sunset, live accordion music, and the beautiful Boston skyline was just amazing. We where out on the water for a little under an hour. My girlfriend loved it and so did I. I grew up 20 minutes from Boston and have lived around here my whole life and this was one of the best thing I have done here. I would definitely recommend this!. Five stars!!! |
