El guía era muy amable, el recorrido fue acorde a la descripción. Si vas solo es una muy buena opción para subir a la góndola.
un peu court mais c'est le temps normal d une promenade en gondole. j'ai beaucoup apprécié la réalité virtuelle avant. cela explique bien la vie au fil du temps à Venise

The price wasn't worth it. The short guided tour of Venice was much too fast and the guide was difficult to understand. The gondola ride was a joke. We went around in circles or sat in traffic and couldn't see anything. Just dirty back streets.
According to the app, the tour lasts 45 minutes. We spent a maximum of 10 minutes on the gondola. There wasn't much to see either. We had to wait 30 minutes for the tour to start, then we were led through the city to the gondola station. In the end, we lost 1.5 hours for a 10-minute boat ride.
The gondola ride takes only 15 minutes, not 30 as described.
The agency simply did not give us the option to reschedule or cancel, even in the rain. Terrible service.
Great little Gondola ride for the classic Venice experience. We booked last spot of the day and managed to have gondola just for the 4 of us
The guided walking portion and the VR segment were both good. The gondola ride was very disappointing. The route taken showed nothing and it was just a short circle around the building.
