Step by Step
A Venetian classic, just as you imagined it. This shared gondola ride takes you 25-30 minutes along historic canals, over bridges and past palaces from water level- the most authentic way to discover Venice.
Boarding takes place at the Alilaguna ticket office (San Marco Giardinetti, next to the Royal Garden). You will be met there to organise access and board the gondola with your group. On board, a professional gondolier sets the pace as he guides you along quiet stretches and sections of the Grand Canal.
The experience combines intimate nooks and crannies with iconic must-sees. From the water, the architectural details and reflections of the palaces take on another dimension - a moving postcard that can only be experienced from the gondola.
At the end, you'll disembark at Bacino Orseolo, the gondola station behind St. Mark's Square, perfect for continuing your stroll through the heart of the city.
