    Unique, scenic experience in Providence. Marcello was great. The complimentary biscuits were a nice touch. We had our own drinks and they provided glasses. They have drinks available also though. Highly recommend this experience. It was sad to see some trash in the river but overall a great way to see that piece of Providence.

    So, we didn't actually take one of the tours, but two of the Gondola guides made an impression on me as I watched them pass us in our kayaks on the river Sunday afternoon. The 1st gentleman was giving a great tour and putting all the effort into giving his riders a memorable experience. The 2nd fellow.....? Well, as you can see, minimal effort as I watched him for at least 5 minutes as he texted or whatever he was doing on his phone. Not one I would want to get if I paid for a tour!! Certainly, one who wouldn't earn much of a tip!

    I went on a Viaggio di Rapsodia gondola ride at 9:15pm last night. The gondolier, Figaro, was very polite and had a beautiful singing voice throughout the ride. There was also an accordion player who was fantastic. The river’s scenery was beautiful. It felt like a dream ❤️ The only issue I had was my GPS took me to somewhere completely different than where the dock is located (One Citizens Plaza Providence, RI, 02903). Fortunately, the email confirmation gave helpful instructions to GPS Cafe Nuovo Restaurant, which took me straight there. I got there 15 minutes late, but the gentlemen were understanding & accommodating.

    We learned of the La Gondola in Providence from a TV series called Providence. Looked it up as we were looking for a late summer trip. The web site was easy to use. It was very informative. We were able to schedule a Sunday appointment during the day time 4 days in advance. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We highly recommend this opportunity. Lovely city and a nice river front. The ride was wonderful. The gondeleer provided a good tour and has a marvelous singing voice. We rode in a genuine Venetian gondola. It is a beautiful vessel with remarkable details.

    We've been twice now, once during the water fires. We all had a great time. The guides were really nice and friendly. The water fire experience was amazing! We will be doing this yearly.

    Great for visitors. However we waited much longer than anticipated for someone to show up

    We are spending our honeymoon in Rhode Island and this was the perfect addition to our trip! Our gondolier, Rosario was a very talented singer and he kindly shared the history of Providence with us. I highly recommend booking!

    It was a beautiful and a romantic moment. Our Gondolaier Ronaldo, (I am not confident if I have the name right, but know I am close lol). He was absolutely amazing!!!! His singing made the moment so romantic. This was my first time but would definitely recommend him. The time we went was perfect, (4:55) on a waterfire night. When we was on our way to the dock the waterfire was starting. So you can say it was a perfect night, until we got lost there and back from the car. 🤣🥂

    Absolutely best thing we did in Providence! It gave us both a little bit of what we loved. Me.. the history and my boyfriend found a common interest with our gondolier, Gennaro and enjoyed that conversation! The water was calm and the weather perfect. When Gennaro pulled over and sang with a voice of an angel under the bridges.. I was dreaming (and feeling) like I was in Europe.. Thank you for the most amazing experience ever!

    Had an amazing night, in the light drizzle The gondola ride was so awesome and I was lucky to be with a gorgeous woman inside and out. I definitely recommend it and do it again in a heartbeat. Tomasso was wonderful and had a beautiful voice. The biscuits were great and it's such a nice gondola. One part of the ride is dark cover under the bridge so we were dry for quite a while and of course you must kiss at least once!

    Beyond the most romantic experience I’ve ever had! The entire team showed us a fantastic time! We even had a private violinist! A magical experience for sure! Lastly, the pink champagne Italian biscuits were delicious and complimented our champagne perfectly!

    Very relaxing and perfect way to see the beautiful sights in Rhode Island. Gennaro did an exceptional job and even sang a couple songs for us in Italian. He is definitely talented and loves what he does! If you are ever in this area, make La Gondola Providence one of your stops!

    La Gondola ... A fantastic relaxing way to spend some time in Providence. It was very easy to make a reservation, the gondola boat was beautiful ... even had an oriental rug in it! Angelo, our gondolier, was just perfect. His singing voice was angelic and he was very helpful answering any questions we had about Providence or gondolas! Would highly recommend this adventure.

    Such a Romaric experience. The Gondolas are original from Italy. Our Gondaliers were amazing. They both sang throughout the ride and you could eat snacks and drink wine while riding down the river. Definitely worth doing and we would do it again.
