Gondola di Venezia

I earned big points with my wife for her birthday! Not only was the staff delightful, but the gondola itself was beautiful and comfortable.

This was the best date I've had in Boston. It is well worth every penny and we had so much fun! Can't wait to do it again:)

We had never been on the Gondola Boats in Boston before but always thought it woul dbe a great idea. I did it as a surprise present for my boyfriend's birthday. Our guide was fantastic and made us feel very comfortable and special! We lucked out with an amazing night and sunset which was icing on the cake for a fantastic adventure!

I was looking for a special present to give my lovely wife in celebration of our 27th anniversary, and couldn't think of anything I hadn't already done for her or bought her. I knew the perfect gift was just simply spending time together but was stumped on what kind of "date" would be something new for us. That's when I heard about the gondola tours on the Charles River. I wanted my wife to have the most enjoyable experience so I purchased the Bellissimo package. It was everything I had hoped for, and my enjoyment that evening was more about her happiness at being treated to something so romantic. The live music and apetizers on board added a nice touch. And the roses are gorgeous. Every once in a while I get it right. Thanks Gondola di Venezia, and Zerve! Yours truly, Erik Bates

It was the best way to ask my girlfriend, now fiance to marry me!

Gondolier Nick was very professional and friendly. The accordion player really added to the authentic Italian theme. It was very romantic and the wine and cheese added to the ride. We will absolutely do it again, it is highly recommended!!

We recently took my Parents & two Daughters on the Boston Gondola ride. What a treat for all of us! The service was so thoughtful...lovely picnic basket prepared for us, iced the beverages we brought, poured initial glasses of wine/ sparkling cider and thoughtfully explained the origin of the Gondola. Then, a beautiful night on the Charles River for us to enjoy. This was a special night, special memory. We all agreed to make it an annual tradition.

this is a great and romantic way to spend some time. Atmosphere is peaceful and fun. The gondelier is really nice and friendly. They provided cheese and crackers, music and I asked for the message in bottle extra and it worked out great. Well worth the time and money

The gondola offers a floating oasis in the midst of a bustling city. It is authentic, sleekly elegant, and comfortable. As we glided down the quiet canoe canal and into the Charles basin to the rich sounds of Italian opera recordings, the sight and sound of traffic on Storrow Drive faded into the background. We heeded the urgings of our expert gondolier, Stefano, by putting up our feet and smooching under each bridge to bring ourselves good luck. Although we passed on the opportunity to bring our own bottle, we enjoyed the water and light snacks offered to us in a charming wicker hamper. The ride is a lovely gift to share with someone you love.

We were visiting Boston for our 39th wedding anniversary and I found the Gondola tour and thought it would be something fun and romantic to do to finish off our day. The Gondola ride was wonderful. The staff did whatever they could to make the night special for the two of us and it was. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to do something special and romantic

Glad we did it. All of the adjectives above. The two people - gondolier and accordion player both enthusiastic and professional. Only wish we had gone into the Charles more than just turning around. We realize that it may be more difficult for the paddler! Yet, the inlet inside the Esplanade doesn't feel like the mighty, beautiful Charles. Also, felt a tiny bit shy of the 50 minutes it was suppose to be. Did not time it, but when we got out it was earlier than 7:50pm. Overall, a fun thing to do.

birthday surprise uniqe and special . although my daughter & her husband are both from this area & know the charles they were pleasantly surpised by the different ins & outs of the charles. I would highly recommend & use again for a special occasion

Enjoy the ride and conversation. The weather was beautiful and the gondola ride was fantastic. Just enough time to put the feet up, take in the scenery and relax. Highly recommend and evening tour - we started in the early evening while still light and at the conclusion of our ride, it had just begun to get dark. We saw the river banks and city lighting up the evening skies.

The gondola was beautiful. The gondolier was extremely polite. The views on the Charles are amazing at sunset. It's something nice to do in the city that feels like you're away from it all. I'd definitely go again and would definitely recommend any couple try this.

This was a great experience. Everything from the chocolates to the live accordion player and the courteous gondolier. The message in the bottle was great. Gondolier dropped it in the Charles without me even knowing when it was going to be done. It just added to great night. I highly recommend them.
