Venice Gondola Ride
Travel Date:
Monday, 26th May 2014
When you're in Venice, a must-do experience is to do the Gondola Ride. You may have ridden the Gondola ride in Venetian Hotels in Las Vegas or in Macau but this one is the best and most authentic. Nothing beats the ride. :)
We took our Gondola ride at Gondole Danieli, a station in front of the historical Hotel Danieli which is not far from Piazza San Marco. We passed the Bacino in front of the square, and into some of the oldest canals of the city. In the middle of the tour, a group of Gondoliers serenaded us with Venetian songs as we cruised along the Grand Canal has been called as "the finest street in the world” as well as some of the smaller canals. We went to Rio di Santa Maria Formosa and Rio di San Severo canals.
It was breathtaking when we glided along Rio del Palazzo and under the Bridge of Sighs! Our tour ended at the Gondole Danieli station.
