The Gondola Serenade tour allows the tourists to meet one of the most moving experience of the enchanted city.
The reflections of old buildings and bridges seen from the water level strengthened by the songs by a gondolier at the end of a dayare really ‘must do’ while in Venice. The evening time is chosen to give most of the unique ride.
The tour can easily be taken by those arriving in Venice as part of a cruise. The water taxi transfer into St Marks Square takes approx. 10 min.
Another 10 min of walk leads to the meeting point, which is also the end point of the tour. From there the guide takes the tourists to the boat, which glides through the waters of Gran Canal, and into the small narrower canals and turnings between the buildings from between 12th and 18th centuries.
