Romantic Date With My Wife

| We enjoyed the crew assigned to our gondola, as they played their roles as Venetians to perfection. The handcrafted gondola itself was magnificent, charming and majestic as we traversed the Charles' canal. The accompanied chocolates, cheese & crackers were tasty but a bit soft due to the high temps. Since it was a hot day, an umbrella was provided to shade us from the sun (which we did use). The only real disappointment, was the route we didn't take. At first we started slowly down the canal heading west, going under the low arched bridges which we had only walked on prior to this romantic ride - so this was very exciting, especially due to the rule that couples must kiss every time a bridged is passed under. But then we suddenly stopped moving down river and began twenty minutes of going in circles, multiple times. At first we thought this was ok, for it provided a 360 degree view of Boston/Cambridge. However, after the first turn around any additional circles seemed to be a waste of time/filler. We should have continued down river for more bridges/kisses and beautiful scenery. The "wind" was the provided excuse for not heading into the open river itself, which we could accept. But not sharing more of the canal, and its ambiance was disheartening. So our overall rating is a solid good with the potential of being very good -to- excellent given more of the river to experience. Best, Wendy & Andy - Needham, MA | ||||||

| From the moment we arrived the people set a calming very professional tone, introducing themselves to us. They took the time to really explain details about the gondola and where it comes from, which was delightful. Also, the details taken into account, the bouquet of roses, the picnic basket of goodies, and chilled water, including the accordian music playing in the background all added to the romantic atmosphere. The details made it even better the the actual venician experience for our honeymoon three years ago. The entire experience is really the best kept secret in Boston! And defiently worth your money. | ||||||

| A wonderful experience that I would recommend, and already have to anyone. It was our 28th wedding anniversary and as you can guess after so many years it gets hard to find unique things to do to celebrate. This experience was definatly unique and enjoyable experience | ||||||

| When I first heard about this Gondola Tour, I thought it might be too cliche -- especially since we live in downtown Boston and are very picky about "touristy" attractions. But, after reading the brochure, I thought it sounded like it could be a nice surprise for my husband's birthday. Well, it ended up surpassing all of our expectations. A very special and romantic evening - it almost didn't seem like we were in Boston. Our friends met us on the dock with some champagne and we were welcomed aboard by our very nice gondolier. I must say that our accordian player Megan was wonderful - she really made the experience. Her voice is amazing. I was also impressed by the gondola itself. A beautiful boat, with very comfortable seating. I highly recommend this experience! | ||||||

Fun, Romantic, Touristy and Pretty

| 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. | ||||||

Taste of Venice in Boston's Back Bay!

| We'd been wanting to do this ever since we'd been to Venice. It was a perfect way to mark our tenth wedding anniversary. Once out on the canal, the intense sun and heat at 5:00pm on a Thursday wasn't so bad. The biggest surprise was how much of Boston we could see from our gondola's vantage point. Runners and bikers and picnickers on the Esplanade; rush-hour cars streaming down Storrow Drive; sailboats and windsurfers on the Charles; geese and some goslings along the banks; and several self-appointed ducks as hungry mascots. Behind it all were the townhouses of Back Bay and hotels and dorms of Cambridge doing an impressive job of standing in for the palazzos of the Grand Canal! Bello! | ||||||

| My husband, two boys (ages 12 and 16) and I really enjoyed the gondola ride. It is a truly breathtaking ride down the Charles River. A little taste of Italy right here in Boston!! | ||||||

| Not only was it completely romantic for me and my husband but the atmosphere and the service were phenomenal! We were provided the music and food along with a beautiful ride down the river. We started right on time and the service was awesome! I would recommend getting there a few minutes early to provide some extra time to find parking. I would highly recommend the Mezza Luna for anyone who is looking for a romantic experience with a loved one! | ||||||

| My sister and I gave our parents the Mezza Luna tour as part of their 40th Anniversary Celebration. This was the perfect gift! They were able to relax, share a bottle of Prosecco and just enjoy the ride. The gondolier was wonderful as was their accorian player. Our mother said it was better than Venice. We'd highly recommend! | ||||||
