Itinerary
Your tour begins at Hotel Danieli gondola station
Head to the gondola station in front of Hotel Danieli on Riva degli Schiavoni, then step into your shared gondola. Settle in as the gondolier pushes off for a 30-minute Grand Canal cruise.
Cruise the Grand Canal
Next, glide along Venice’s main waterway, passing historic buildings and busy boat traffic. From your seat, catch reflections in the canal and experience the everyday rhythm of the city moving by water.
Float past classic Venetian façades
Then, drift by a changing lineup of old palaces and waterfront details, from arched windows to striped mooring poles. It's an easy way to take in Venice’s unique architecture without needing to navigate the crowds on foot.
Take in the Grand Canal’s lively atmosphere
Continue along the canal as boats pull in and out and the scenery shifts around each bend. Enjoy the quiet ride with your small group of just 5 people and capture those brag-worthy, iconic photos.
Your tour ends at Hotel Danieli gondola station
Finally, arrive back to the same dock you departed from, in front of Hotel Danieli. Step onto the promenade and continue your evening having completed a major bucket list item: cruise the canals in Venice. Check!
