Gondola Rides in Venice

It was such a romantic experience to get on the Gondola ride in Venice. The gondoliers sang really good songs. Some of them were very handsome. The Gondola was beautifully decorated, it passed through the narrow canals of Venice. The visitors on the bridge waved at us. Even though it was quite costly, but worth the money. Truly a lifetime memory. Ambiance/Facilities: 10/10 Rating: 5/5

If you ever go to Italy, dont forget to visit Venice. The sunset was amazing. The people were very friendly. Not to forget the gondola ride, its a must. €100 per boat for 1 hour (Max 5 person) #venice

€2 Gondola Ride in Venice

Instead of forking out a minimum of €80 for a 25-30 minute ride on a gondola in Venice, did you know you can have the full gondola experience across the Grand Canal in Venice for just 2.5% of the cost? This is all made possible if you go to ‘Gondola Traghetto’ which is only a short walk away from the famous Rialto Bridge. You don’t need to book in advance, just join a relatively small queue of people (even in the summer), pay €2 and hop on the gondola. There are a couple of drawbacks to this, one being you’ll be sharing the gondola with a number of strangers rather than renting a private gondola for your party. Secondly the gondola trip only lasts roughly 3 minutes as you simply cross the canal rather than travel along it. If neither of these things put you off then this is definitely a bargain and a must do on your trip to one of the most magical cities in Europe.

Strolling around the Floating City

#europetrip #Venice #Italy A day is enough to stroll around Venice, Italy, also known as “The Floating City”. Venice is famous for its canals, architecture, bridges and more. You will get to see plenty of gondolas through the city canals. Venetian gondola ride is popular to explore around in Venice, it is an expensive ride. Expenditure in Venice can be quite high, so if you are on a budget travel, I’ll recommend you to stay in the mainland and take bus to reach the floating city. There are many islands around it, like the famous one Torcello, Burano and Murano. There are various of companies offers tour to these 3 islands. The price is competitive, you may check the price before you book for your tour. If you staying Venice for 2 or more days, I’ll recommend you to explore those islands.
