The Gondolier was very informative, and the Violinist was quite talented, all creating a lovely evening. The Gondola was lovely and we would recomment this to anyone wishing to have a truely enjoyable evening along the Charles. |

It was a beautiful Friday afternoon, enjoying our 46th first date anniversary. The Gondola Tour was superb, bringing back fond memories of our Venice, Italy, Canal Gondola Tour and Boston along the Charles River, where we took many walks in those early days. The Prosecco was nicely chilled by Nick, our gondolier. He was friendly, professional and did an excellent job. Also the young lady, Branwin who played the accordion and sang was great, setting the romantic mood. As we were completing our Gondola Tour, she played - Time To Say Goodbye (Con Te Partiro) by Andre Bocelli, whose music we like to listen to. This Gondola Tour was well worthed and we plan to do it again the next time we return to Boston. Highly recommend this wonderful experience. |

I would highly recommend this tour! We were treated warmly by our gondolier and accordian player and instantly made to feel comfortable for our romanitc and relaxing journey on the Charles. The views of Boston and Cambridge from the water were great. Don't forget the Champage to accompany the picket basket of goodies they provide. Relax, enjoy and let the romance in. |

This is a unique and extremely relaxing way to take in the Charles River and some spectacular Boston views. The gondolas are authentic, Venetian-crafted, artwork in and of themselves. My wife and I went for our anniversary. Few other experiences have been so romantic and enjoyable. Our gondolier, Marco, was delightful and our accordionist, Bella, played wonderfully; they helped make the evening truly memorable. I highly recommend to anyone visiting Boston, or anyone living here, to take advantage of this one-of-a-kind experience. We can't wait to do it again! |

5-Star Romantic Evening

My husband and I were in Boston for work/play. We signed up for the Gondola ride with the live music, and brought a very special bottle of wine (which they opened for us and supplied the glasses as well). They supplied the cheese/crackers, fresh strawberries and truffles. Both my husband and I felt that this was one of the best highlights of our trip. Steve the Gondolier was fabulous, and the music was beautiful. I wish we remembered her name (accordian player), because she had one of the most beautiful voices. We highly recommend the Gondola ride and would definitely do this again when we return to Boston. |

Romantic Outing

This was our 26th wedding anniversary. I am 72; my wife is 64. This is 2nd marriage for both of us.
The Gondola outing was magnificent. The "trip" along the canal between the Charles and the Esplanade was excellent for the first "leg" of the outing. We crossed under bridges (tradition is: a kiss) and mingled with frollicking kayakers and the like. Then, 2nd half is out in the open of the Charles. Nice contrast. We experienced having our pictures taken by several folks on the bridges that we went under and from the shore.
The accordian music was sublime. The gondolier and the accordianist were professional. They seemed to enjoy what they were doing.
We had magnificent weather and this was a bonus. We did the 7 pm trip and that was nice. A moonlit trip or one at dusk would be great too, I'm sure. All in all, it was well worth the money. |
