Venice (Chioggia), Italy

Private Gondola Ride for Two

Classic Romance. Classic Venice. Indulge in your very own private gondola ride for the ultimate romantic experience in Venice. There is no more enchanting way to see both the grand and the hidden corners of Venice. These distinctive flat-bottomed boats were once the principal mode of transport in the city; today, they remain prevalent, piloted by skilled rowers in striped shirts. After a transfer to St. Mark’s Square via private water taxi, follow your escort to the gondola boarding station. Then, journey through Venice's magical canals —just you, your traveling companion, and your gondolier. The city takes on another guise from the water, as you serenely glide below small, picturesque bridges with medieval buildings towering above. Your 30-minute ride is unguided and your route will depend on water traffic. After free time in St. Mark’s Square, you will return to your ship via private water taxi. * Moderate - Walking portions may be long and somewhat challenging with occasional step-ups, stairs and inclines. Total time walking or standing normally ranges from 1.5 to 3 hours.
