Romantic but overpriced

| I went on the 930pm outing and arrived about 40 minutes early. I was very impressed with the set up and layout of it all...very romantic location. The boats seemed to be running about 15 minutes behind, but this was not a big deal. My boyfriend and i were very excited and found it to be very romantic. The accordian player was talented and nice, as was our gondolier. Few cons: After going on it I've decided its a bit overpriced....Also, while the atmosphere can be very romantic, you need to be able to drown out storrow drive as the boat goes along side it. It wasn't too bad, just teh occassional distraction or headlight glaring. I would definitely recommend to do it once, but i'm not sure I'd go on it again. | ||||||

| A beautiful experience. Skimming low across he water with a magnificent view of Boston & Cambridge definately gives you a different perspective of Boston, even for a local. Our Gondolier & Accordianist made us feel special & welcomed. The music was wonderful and Megan's voice was angelic. Do NOT miss this experience. You won't regret it. | ||||||

| I can’t imagine a more romantic evening than dinner in a nice restaurant, followed by a cruise in a gondola with roses, strawberries and chocolate. These folks have thought of every detail and spare no effort to provide you with an unforgettable experience. My lady was reduced to a puddle of joyful tears and has not stopped talking about this to everyone she knows and several she didn’t. Gentlemen, it’s not a matter of ‘if,’ it must be a matter of ‘when.’ If you are within 100 miles of Boston, sign up for this truly magnificent experience. It’s easily worth twice the price. After this, I figure I can do no wrong for at least a decade! | ||||||

She will love you even more...

| The evening was perfect for the gondola ride. I surprised my girlfriend for her 21st birthday and she loved every second of it. All she kept saying was "this is so romantic. I love you so much!" Our Gondolier, Marco, was very pleasant and gave us a good background history of the gondolas. Our accordion player, Marlena, was an excellent player/singer. she set the mood perfectly for the whole ride. Her birthday surprise did not end there. I made reservation in the North End for a whole night of Italy. I would recommend this idea to everyone, couple, friends and parents. Nothing is more romantic then just the two of you cuddle up looking at the Boston skyline. she will love you even more for this unforgettable experience. you won't regret anything. | ||||||

Highly recommended!

Why travel to Venice when Mezza Luna is so close?

| What a fun and romantic outing for a couple in love. My wife and I really did not know what to expect when we signed up for the gondola ride on a whim. We were very impressed with the attention to detail. The gondolier went out of his way to make sure that both of us were comfortable. The Charles River provides a very romantic setting. The gondolier and the accordian player were very friendly but careful not to be obtrusive. They allow you all the privacy you like. The accordian player was not only talented with her instrument, but she had a beautiful singing voice as well. In addition to playing traditional Italian love songs, she entertained us by improvising an accordian rendition of "Take Me Out To The Ballgame", sensing that my wife and I were both big Red Sox fans. Two thumbs way up! | ||||||

| I used this opportunity to propose to my girlfriend of four years. Before we arrived I was contacted by an employee who gave me detail ofs the entire gondola ride and best places to propose. They had arranged with the gondalier to stop at a very lovely spot. I was also pleased when I asked the accordian player to video tape the proposal and she did a fantastic job. The gondolier and accordian player offered to be very quiet for us during the trip but being tourists we had many questions to ask and they answered everyone of them. It was quite a memorable trip and I we will do it again every couple years. We went out at nine o'clock in July and I definately recommend going out at either 8:30pm or 9pm because the first 20 minutes is beautiful in the light but once you get out past the bridges the city is amazing in the dark. | ||||||

Best kept secret in Boston!

| Booked this as a special treat on a recent trip to Boston. Managed to get it to concide with sunset to add a little something extra. This was easily the best thing about our trip, besides watching the Yankees beat the Sox at Fenway! From the moment we boarded the gondola, our driver made us feel at ease. We were encouraged to take off our shoes, put our feet up, and relax. There was an unobtrusive accordian player who quietly played classics in the background. They also provided us with a wine bucket to chill a bottle of wine or champagne for our ride. This ride is a private way to enjoy seeing the city from a different perspective without the crowds of the duck boats or ferries. Perhaps a little pricy, but not much more than you would pay in Venice for the same amount of time on the river. Great for a special or romantic occasion. | ||||||

Lovely -- Be sure to book for sunset!

| It was lovely -- the staff were warm and polite and we had a very nice hour. . The basket of refreshments was a little sparse, but we didn't book the tour for the food! | ||||||

| This was an absolutely wonderful and unforgettable experience. Our original tour got cancelled 2x due to rain, but they were more than accommodating and when we finally went it was unbelievable - so beautiful and peaceful... we did the tour right at sunset - there were no other boats on the water and the view of the Boston skyline was breathtaking. It was quiet, peaceful and the accordian player was the icing on the cake. On that river at dusk with just a lantern in the front of the boat and the view of the city...It was as if the whole world had stopped for this newly wed couple! ***Want a romantic time with that special someone - HIGHLY recommended! | ||||||

| This ride was absolutely amazing! We went at the time of sunset on a beautiful summer night. Our Gondalier took such good care of us explaining the gondola to us, how it was constructed and it's history. He then retreated to the back of the boat and let my girlfriend and I just sit back and enjoy the ride. Such a romantic night, it was a great surprise for my girlfriend. I highly recommend it! | ||||||
