Thirty-fifth wedding treat!
Sun, Jul 12, 09   8:00 PM JoanMahon Female 50-59 Local Couple on a Date
After spending a full day in Boston Harbor, hiking on Spectacle Island, walking through the North End, eating pizza from the Upper Crust on Charles St. in the Public Gardens, we walked over the Arthur Fiedler Footbridge to the Charles. We were more than ready for the tranquil gondola ride on the river. With footrests and a basket of goodies at our feet we sat back on the comfortable throne like seats. The gondelier and the accordian player were friendly but once on the boat kept to themselves and let us relax. A splendid way to end a splendid day!

Extremely wonderful and romantic!
Sat, Jul 11, 09   6:30 PM derrickmeade Male 30-39 Local Couple on a Date
This was a very wonderful experience and I highly recommend it!!! I took my (now) fiancée on this for our engagement proposal, it was truly romantic and very unique (and of course she said yes!). The special service they offer when it comes to proposals is a great idea any I recommend any considering proposals with this event to look into it. The live music was amazing and really set a pleasant atmosphere, the whole thing exceeded my expectations which were already set high. The staff was very professional and friendly, we can't wait to go again soon and relive this!

great experience, very romantic

It may have been that our gondolier knew we were local so he didn't point out points of interest. People visiting the Boston area would probably be interested in local landmarks - or depending on the mood of his riders, he could remain quiet.

A Most Spectacular Evening
Fri, Jul 10, 09   7:00 PM wyndyk Female 50-59 Local Group of Friends
The whole event was wonderful, start to finish. We were 2 couples celebrating a birthday for one of us. The weather cooperated fantastically, and they had prepared a picnic basket full of cheese/crackers, strawberries and chocolates! The wine we brought was uncorked and put in an ice bucket, and off we went . . . and the singer/accordian player was great. The gondolier and singer both were 'invisible' and never spoke unless spoken to (which wasn't necessary, but we realize that's probably part of it - they aren't the event, the trip itself is). I've already recommended this to anyone wanting an unusual celebration, or just a peaceful cruise around the Charles River. We were never more than 50 feet from shore, more often we were closer. I will definately make reservations again. Many thanks for a wonderful evening cruise!

Venice in Boston--Who Knew?
Thu, Jul 9, 09   9:00 PM mincone Female 60-69 Local Other
Cannot believe that we had never heard of this tour. It was wonderful! My husband and I had been to Venice several years ago and I decided that this tour would make a wonderful surprise birthday gift for him. We went out at 9:00 p.m. and there was only one other boat on the water. Everything from the gondolier, the accordian player, the complimentary picnic basket, etc. was PERFECT! It felt just like we were in Venice! I highly recommend this tour--one of Boston's best kept secrets!!!!!!!

Phenomenal!

I chose to book a Bellissimo tour when I proposed to my girlfriend. This was the best thing for that very purpose. The staff is unbelievably courteous, thoughtful, professional and really make the experience simply unforgettable. They had chocolate, cheese and bread. I had picked out a bottle of Cote du Rhone which they had glasses for. We had some great photos taken by their staff. We will never forget that night filled with a beautiful sunset, the calm Charles River water and the accordion while were were serenaded.

The most romantic date I have been on ...ever!!!!
Wed, Jun 24, 09   9:00 PM JohnMahoney Male 50-59 Local Couple on a Date
My date and I was promptly greeted and introduced , escorted on the boat and explained the history of the boat and our guide and his training for the trip on the charles. I was very happy that they still accomodated us for the evening because the weather was trying as it continued to rain, and they did say that an e-mail was sent to us because of the weather, but it could not have been a more beautiful night on the charles, we had a basket of cheese and crackers and lovely chocolate, candle and lanterns lit , need I say more..... I would greatly suggest this activity and have to all my friends...Thank You very much to the team of II Bacio Gondola tours. Best Betty McMahon John Mahoney

A Fabulous way to relax and enjoy the city view

We had a fantastic time and would highly recommend this experience. Our Gondolier was wonderful. She told us information regarding the Gondola and the making of it. We really appreciated the history. She was very professional. We will be sure to take another Gondola ride when we are back in Boston. Thanks again for a wonderful time!

One of the best days of my life!

The gondola staff was first-class. The scenery was beautiful and the atmosphere was amazing. I used this event to propose to my girlfriend (best decision I ever made). The staff was very helpful and discreet so I could maintain the surprise. We did have to reschedule, but the staff was very accommodating with this as well. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a romantic day or evening.

Very nice evening

My wife and I went on the Bellissimo tour for our 18th anniversary. Our first evening was canceled by Gondola Tours because of rain, and they were very friendly about it. We were already in the area that evening, and they said they'd take us if we wanted, but they really recommended a nicer night. Since they would have gone to waste, they even gave my wife the roses she would have gotten had we taken the tour on our original night. Rescheduling on the phone was easily and pleasantly done. They were helpful with checking both weather and availability. We went on the tour over a month later, and had a wonderful time. We went at 9:00, and think it was even better than sunset would have been. The gondolier and the accordion player were available for questions or comments, but were careful to let our time be about enjoying the tour with each other. We enjoyed the snacks, the breeze (not quite cool enough to pull out the blanket), the waves, the bridges, the trees, and everything. There were several couples looking at us as we passed under bridges (we gave them our recommendation). There were even a few fireworks on the horizon while we were out on the river. That was a coincidence, but we pretended that the tour had arranged it for us. Although the Bellissimo was the most expensive tour, we felt that our hour flew by, and are glad we didn't take a shorter one. The experience as a whole and all the little points were certainly worth it.

The sunset trip was very romantic,the music and the singing is a must. The uniform, the gondola, the water, the sunset,the musicand the singing made our trip to Boston extra special. Thank you for paying attention to detail..
