	I took my wife on the Mezza Luna Gondola Tour for her birthday. She had no idea what I had planned. When we got to the site, she was speechless. She absolutely loved it. The accordian player played the most beautiful italian music. The Boston skyline was just amazing from that vantage point. We had a bottle of wine (provided by us), along with assorted cheese and crackers, and strawberries and chocolates. I would definetly recommend taking your significant other on one of the Gondola Tours as it truly makes for a romantic evening.

	Our tour started with a 10 minute introduction to the history of the Gondola, its craftmanship and how it changed over the years with the position of the rower from front to back. Cheese, crackers and chocolate treats were waiting on the boat, we brought our own wine. There was a pink rose laying across the seat and we were gracefully assisted on board. Italian music played quietly in the back ground while we were educated about the tradtion of the Good Luck Kiss when passing under the bridges. The weather was great, the other couple we passed on their Gondola were friendly and the ride was so smooth, you could hardly tell you were moving at all. We've recommended you to two other couples already and will definately be back ourselves. Until then, CIAO!

	We are a local couple. I decided to suprise my boyfriend with a gondola tour one night after dinner. It totally exceeded my expectations. The accordian player was fabulous, and the love songs she sang were perfect. I loved the strawberries and chocolate, my boyfriend loved the cheese and crackers. we snuggled up under the provided blankets and kissed under each of the bridges for luck. I was worried he'd find it cheesy, but my boyfriend loved it so much he hasn't stopped talking about it yet. I highly rec'd it for locals and tourists alike.

	This was a great experience; I took my boyfriend to Boston for the weekend and this really made the trip very special. Everyone was extremely pleasant and helpful and they treated you like royalty. There was nothing that I would have changed about this tour. if you are looking for the all time romantic thing to do in Boston this is it.

	My partner and I went on the tour on the day of our wedding to get away from our families and friends for a bit before the ceremony. The accordionist was amazing (my partner and I are also musicians, so we were definitely listening closely to her) and the tour was just fantastic. I told them when I reserved it that it was our wedding day, and the staff greeted us with roses and congratulations. They were very enthusiastic and welcoming toward us. The ride is very private; we almost forgot there were other people on the boat. During mid-day there were other people watching and photographing the boat from on-shore, but no one was obnoxious or anything. Highly recommended.
	For locals or tourists - a fantastic experience Bellissimo - Our most luxurious gondola tour!

	We had a perfect evening. We brought a picnic dinner to the Esplanade an then went on this splendid, relaxing , peaceful ride. The accordian player was unobtrusive and the music low key. An excellent way to spend an evening.

	I had seen the Gondola while at the Esplanade with my boyfriend. We wanted somthing different and new for my mother's 70th birthday. We took her and my father and they loved it! They want to return, and I'm sure we will! -Nancy p.s. Also: A friend at work said she had given someone a gift certificate to this tour. What a great idea, I'll keep it in mind!

	disappointed with gondola ride Mezza Luna - Our most popular gondola tour!

	We had some glitches in scheduling, as the gondola people and Zerve had doublebooked for the same time slot. However, that was straightened out and Joseph (gondola person) was very apologetic and good at communicating in phone calls, to straighten out the problem. The idea in general of a gondola ride is a great one; the location is the downfall, which the gondola company cannot really control. We were promised a very romantic ride. However, as far out as we went, we could still hear the big concert going on at the Hatch Shell, from where the gondolas depart and return, and 90% of the ride (it was on a Saturday night) we saw men relieving themselves on shore and police walking the shores and breaking up little clusters of people from which came the distinct smell of marijuana. A few times, people on shore called out to us, asking for a ride, so it did not end up being the romantic surprise I'd envisioned for my date. Also, we were booked for 50 minutes and Joseph had indicated that we'd receive a little longer ride, given the glitches in the beginning; however, from the time we left the dock to the time we returned, it was a total of 45 minutes, so we were actually shorted five minutes. All in all, it was a different experience and my date enjoyed the surprise - but, given the location and the activity of the locals, over which the gondola company has no control, do not expect it to be romantic, even with the accordian player/singer, champagne (I brought) and basket of goodies.
	Magical night Mezza Luna - Our most popular gondola tour!

	The gondola tour was amazing. From the first interaction with the gondalier entering the boat to saying our good-byes everything was great. We honeymooned in Venice and had some wonderful memories that we shared with Joe who knows alot about Venice and its culture. What a romantic was to spend your anniversary.
