5.Venice Shared Gondola Ride

★★★★★★★★★★3.5 · 401 reviews · 30 minutes (approx.) · from $52

See Venice from the water on a shared 30-minute gondola ride, with views of La Fenice, Santa Maria della Salute, and quiet canals.

“It was good for the price. The boat essentially follows a row of Gondolas, which made it a little ‘meh.’ I also didn’t know we would be out with another couple. We didn’t get to choose seats because of this. That was a little disappointing.”
