45-Minute or 1-hour Private Gondola Ride from Rialto
Overview
The best perspective to admire Venice is from the water and the gondola is the very best way to discover the city and experience how, in the past, Venetians moved from a district to another. That is a unique experience that you cannot miss!
You can choose your preferred duration: 45 minutes or 1 hour!
The route of this Gondola ride starts few steps far away from Rialto Bridge, crossing hidden inner canals so then you can admire original glimpses that otherwise you cannot notice when walking through the city centre. But that’s not all! Let youself be marveled by the majestic Rialto Bridge, one of the most ancient and famous bridges in Venice.
Don't forget that this is a private tour, so you can let yourself be rocked by the waves of Canal Grande with the people closest to you, having an entire gondola at your disposal, for up to 5 people.
