Fantastic we’re all booked for Venice a lovely surprise by my fiancé, it’s been a nightmare in lockdown over the COVID-19 the last 5 months, We both were truly looking forward to our 1st time on a Private Gondola for 2! Once arrived at our hotel we realised we could have got this ride a lot cheaper. Let me start by saying we were 10 mins early, we waited until our 4pm slot, the tour guide man was friendly but seemed to be a little confused and seemed to be looking for some thing before we started , this took up our time by 5 mins, NOT a GREAT-START Guys! Once on board of the Gondola, the trip started late , we headed out on the Grand Canal for not very long and then was taken down some back street canal & returned back to base! Not worth the money or time with these rip off people & What 30 mins, it was more like 17mins for 120 Euros! We spent 30 mins getting to this place when we should have booked the Private Gondola our side of our friendly hotel!! Avoid This company ALL together, once I complained he said he had given as 30 mins really!!! Never ever again!! Your better of with your hotel’s recommendations or a better trip advisor Gondola company!! Your company & the people that work for you, should be ashamed of your selfishness towards good people in hard times like these!! Avoid AT ALL Costs People !!!

What a trip! Adam, our driver, was fabulous. Nothing was too much trouble for him. The day went according to plan and we had marvellous visits to both the extensive complex of Villa Adriana and then taken up the hill to Villa d’Este and its magnificent water gardens. Thoroughly recommend this out of Rome trip although pre-trip communication from the local provider could be improved.
