Gondola Ride
This is no longer a standard means of transport as it was in the olden days.
Some of the gondolas work as water taxis and take more than ten people on board.
Other gondolas are well decorated and they take a maximum of five people.
Watch the video if you fancy a ‘free’ gondola ride!
Currently a ride on a gondola of this kind costs no more than 550 STEEM. It lasts about an hour together with some short presentation, embarking and disembarking.
However, especially if you are not fluent in Italian, and you don’t have all the time in the world in Venice I recommend you pre-book and customise your gondola experience online.
You can add on Prosecco, Champagne, wine, nibbles, a photographer, a videographer and even an opera singer to serenade you throughout the gondola ride.
Thank you for sharing your experience and recommendation of taking a gondola ride in Venice, Italy.It's interesting to note that while gondolas were once primarily used as a means of transportation, they now serve more as a tourist attraction and water taxi.Overall, I agree that a gondola ride is a must-do activity when visiting Venice, and your tips and recommendations are very helpful for anyone planning their trip to this beautiful city.
Your photos and posts are always beautiful! I've been to Venice only once and I couldn't take the gondola ride because there were too many people and we had little time, it's something I've always wanted to do so I hope to do it one day, for now I'll settle for your video. 😊
Do you have a map on your wall at home where you mark the visited places with flags?
Great question my friend 😊 I have a scratch off world map but it’s in the loft now 🌎
It should be in the main place in the house with marks of places where you have been.
Beautiful photos. I imagine it was an unforgettable and certainly original experience.
With the video I felt like I was also on your gondola for a moment.. 😜
Thank you ever so much @mikitaly It was one of a kind experience indeed and I loved every second of it 🛶 I’m glad that you hopped on my gondola 🙌
