What to expect

Start your Gondola Ride by boarding from the gondola station Bacino Orseolo, located behind Piazza San Marco. Then continue until reaching the Grand Canal by traveling along the smaller, more picturesque canals, such as Rio dei Barcaroli, where Mozart's home is, and Rio dell'Ovo.

From there, on the right you will see the magnificence of the Rialto Bridge, which is the oldest bridge across the canal, and on the left you will see important buildings such as Ca' Farsetti, the seat of the city hall, and Palazzo Grimani, the seat of the Court of Appeal. Then you continue to Rio San Luca where you can see Ponte del Teatro, the bridge between the façade of the church of San Luca and that of the Rossini cinema, and Ponte di San Paternian, the bridge connects Campo Manin to Calle San Paternian. There you will see Palazzo Manin, the residence of the last Doge of Venice Ludovico Manin, which is now the Bank of Italy's headquarters.

This experience will end again at the same boarding point, it’ll be hassle-free and not overwhelming. Share this wonderful experience with the people closest to you and discover this enchanted city with our Gondola service.
