When is the best time to take a boat tour?
The optimal time for a boat tour in Venice varies depending on what you’re looking for.
The spring months (April to June) offer mild weather and fewer crowds compared to summer, making it a great time for enjoying the city’s beauty in a somewhat quieter setting. Winter also has its charm, especially during late morning when the mist over the canals adds a mystical touch, or at sunset when the city is illuminated by soft, golden light.
These times not only enhance the atmosphere but also provide different perspectives of Venice’s iconic scenery.
How many passengers can be accommodated onboard?
Our fleet is designed to cater to various group sizes, ranging from romantic outings for two to small group adventures.
The capacity of our boats varies, accommodating anywhere from 2 to 10 passengers. This ensures that whether you’re looking for a private escape or a joyful group excursion, we have the perfect boat to meet your needs.
What is the duration of a boat tour?
The duration of our boat tours can vary based on the specific tour chosen and your personal preferences. Typically, tours last from one to several hours. We offer both short excursions that provide a quick glimpse of Venice’s major sights and longer, more leisurely tours that allow for in-depth exploration of the area’s rich history and stunning architecture.
Custom durations are also available to match your schedule and interests perfectly.
What types of boats are used for the tours?
Our diverse fleet includes high-speed luxury boats, elegant limousines on water, and traditional gondolas.
Each type of vessel offers a different experience, from the thrill of cutting across the lagoon at speed to the romance of gliding silently across the canals in a gondola. Regardless of your choice, all our boats are maintained to the highest standards of comfort and safety, equipped with plush seating and necessary amenities to enhance your touring experience.

For the most enjoyable experience, we recommend you bring sunglasses, sunscreen, and a hat to protect against the sun, especially during the summer months.
A camera or smartphone is a must to capture the stunning scenery. For evening tours, a light jacket may be needed as it can get cool on the water.
If you have any special requirements, such as accessibility needs or dietary restrictions for tours that include refreshments, please inform us at the time of booking.
Are there any age restrictions for the boat tours?
Our boat tours are suitable for guests of all ages. However, for safety reasons, children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.
