The Headout gondola cruise starts first with a Virtual Reality presentation covering background history to Venice and gondolas - very good. And caters for those who wear hearing devices!
Note you need to turn up at the Headout office.
Then it's a short walk to the gondola, seating five. Two of them get the heart-shaped seat - the others have flat seats. Can't change positions once you're onboard (as one tried during our 25-minute trip causing a panicky shout from the gondolier as the boat swayed threateningly!)
All in all it was a fabulous experience.
(As at our springtime break, getting a gondola ride for two people without booking was typically 90€)
El lugar espectacular, las góndolas son preciosas y el ambiente uff pero el gondolero era bastante grosero la atención de la agencia de turismo excelente
Yes, it was cheesy, but my parents were living for it. As first timers in Italy and Venice, they enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you for helping my parents cross off a bucket list item - what a wonderful way to spend the morning in beautiful Venice.
Muy tranquilo y agusto, los gondoleros hablan un poco de español y eso está muy bien además te contestan lo que les preguntas sobre la historia y son muy amables, la chía de la caseta de los boletos también habla español y es muy amable y da instrucciones muy claras, en general todo el servicio es excelente.
