What to expect
You'll board your gondola with your party and settle in for a leisurely float through the calm, sheltered canals. The gondolier poles you smoothly past the architectural statements lining the waterfront—think resort-style homes and luxury estates. Wine and cheese arrive as you cruise, giving you time to relax without rushing. The pace is gentle and the setting feels removed from the busier beachfront areas. It's intimate rather than showy, though the red carpet touches lend a bit of theatre to arrival and departure.
