Customer service was great. My mom and I enjoyed the ride. The guy on the other gondola sang for us! Will come back

This was an excellent experience in Venice. Having the guitarist and singer on board was such a bonus.

Disappointing. From start to finish was less than 30 min, my wife and I were seated separately on the gondola and we were with many other boats with the individual doing the serenade 3 boats behind.
Not what we expected. Felt like a number vs getting an experience.

The man in charge of the gondolas was very rude and abrupt and when we finally got on our gondola we were nowhere near the man doing the seranade as we were in the first gondola and he was way back near the last. It was not very well organised

Hard to hear the singer unless you were in his boat so disappointing as we paid extra . Staff at dock not very attentive

Bought a serenade and didn't get one. I asked about it to the gondola operator and he just made a joke out of me to the other operators because there was one gondola with a serenade and he said that's it right there. Went to the office later told them where was my serenade and they said it was a group. Rightly Fd off so that means I paid for everyone else to have a serenade. Not happy. Best to go somewhere else. Bad bad bad experience. Plus there was no english guide. The operator was just talking Italian with the other operators.

So much fun and beautiful experience. Loved the singing. Navigating through the little canals was wonderful.

The ABSOLUTE best experience ever in Venice. A special request for a little person on his birthday was also catered for by the serenade singers. Thank you Roberto and Tiziano. The tour operator and the agent from Viator were also super helpful. An evening gondola ride with serenade is a must-do when in Venice. There are lots of gondolas but when the singer is singing, everyone was looking at our boat and clapping! Overall the best highlight of my trip. The ride is about 30mins long but goes pretty quickly when you're enjoying yourself. Kudos to everyone making this possible. Thanks!

The gondola ride itself was cool, but I was disappointed with the serenade. The singer was on a different boat but our boat was far ahead of him and we could barely hear the singing. At times we couldn’t hear him at all. I wish I didn’t pay as much for a “serenade” because we didn’t even get one. Again, gondola was nice and the workers were nice, but it felt like false advertising in my opinion.

This was the most magical experience we could’ve asked for! It was the cherry on top for our Italian honeymoon ❤️
