⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 Stars - Venice Tours: The Floating Symphony Extravaganza! 🎶🚣♂️
Oh, mama mia! My gondola ride with Venice Tours was like winning the lottery and getting a serenade from the Italian cupid himself! 💘 I felt like a celebrity cruising down the Venice canals, with the whole city as my audience! 📸🎥
From the moment we stepped into the gondola, I knew this was going to be a ride to remember. The gondolier had that perfect balance of charm and wit, guiding us through the labyrinth of waterways like a master of the Venetian tides. 🌊🧭
But wait, there's more! A serenade singer AND an accordionist hopped aboard, and suddenly, we had our own private concert! 🎤🎶 I must say, the accordionist's fingers moved so fast, I'm pretty sure they were secretly powered by Venetian espresso! ☕️🇮🇹 And the singer's voice? It could melt the coldest of Venetian glaciers! 🎤🗻
As we glided through the picturesque canals, the entire city seemed to join the party. Tourists on the bridges took selfies with us, probably thinking we were the next big Venetian boy band. 🤳🎤 And I swear, even the pigeons on the rooftops were clapping their wings in rhythm! 🐦🎵
Our little boat of harmony quickly became the center of attention. Other boats couldn't resist joining in on the sing-along fun! 🎉🚤 So there we were, a floating flotilla of music enthusiasts, serenading each other like a real-life version of "The Voice: Gondola Edition"! 🎤🚣♂️
If you want to experience Venice like never before, book a ride with Venice Tours and unleash your inner Pavarotti or Andrea Bocelli! 🎭🎤 You'll feel like you've become part of a magical musical theater production, complete with a touch of Italian romance and a sprinkle of paparazzi from the bridges! 📸🤩
Bravo, Venice Tours, bravo! You turned a gondola ride into an unforgettable floating symphony extravaganza! 🎶🌟 I'll cherish these memories forever, and I might just have to return for my encore! 👏🎉
Venice, you've stolen my heart (and my vocal cords) - all thanks to this incredible tour! Grazie...
Read moreTraveling with husband and toddler. I didn’t realize how far this is from parking it is a 2 km walk. It takes about 30 minutes walking, but factor in more time with a toddler and all the winding alleys. I message I was going to be late they told me to get there as soon as possible. I missed my reservation but I sent the message and was encouraged we could make it up. Arrived at the location, young lady with blond hair and glasses was fairly rude. I arrived advised what happened she told me to wait to the side which I did. Then after waiting for about 30 minutes and assuming most people have already checked in because we were at number 22. She glared at me and gave me the biggest side eye. In front of her colleagues, she told me to wait to the side to which I asked, where would you like me to wait since I was already next to the newsstand, perhaps there was a different location to wait that she would prefer since I wasn’t waiting at the right place. Maybe I’m waiting in the wrong side. The other gentlemen with a beard was so much nicer and told me it was okay I was in the right spot and then helped me check in after a couple of minutes.
There is no need to be rude, I understand dealing with tourists is difficult but kindness cost nothing. She could have said, hey we may be able to accommodate you at 4, or something more meaningful since I’m dealing with a toddler and I have no idea if I’m waiting at the right place.
The gondola was nice, but if they actually spoke they would make a lot more in tips. People don’t want to wear plastic headphones on a gondola ride. Don’t worry about bringing headphones either we traveled with ours but they provided it. English from all representatives was great and the local tour guide was kind and helpful. Best of luck to the families...
Read moreSave yourself the frustration! They could care less about the quality of your tour. You are nothing more than tourists they can weasel money out of. The gondola ride we took was a group ride, and the other people on our boat were upset that the gondola was cracked and old, and the leather was ripped all.over, so they refused to get on... we didn't mind, so we stayed on assuming they would at least honor our ride... instead they left us sitting on the bumpy boat in the dock for 15 mins while they argued with the other couples. Then when we finally left, they shortened our ride to only 13 mins instead of the 30 because of the problem with those other people. Terrible that we had to pay the price for someone else's problems. The next day, we were stuck with this horrible company again ĵbecause it was now too late to cancel. First, the directions they gave were to the wrong site (beware there are 2 on the island and both are tough to find) by the time we ran over to their other site, they told us there was nothing they could do,.and handed us some crumbled paper tix and said to just go on on our own without the guide we paid for ...then the long haired man and woman behind the counter proceeded to talk about us Italian and start laughing... little did they know a woman standing back by the entrance spoke Italian and told us after what they said. However, similar to what some of the sayings on the walls of Venice say... those that reap ill-will shall find it...
