My husband, son and I went on this ride and we all loved it! Our gondolier's name was Pepe and his was just great. He had an amazing voice and an even better personality. The line was a bit long, but it was well worth the wait. If you go to Vegas, you must take this nice and relaxing ride!
This is a pretty neat ride. It was my first ride on a gondola, so it was worth the experience. It is very romantic, when there isn't a lot of noise from on-lookers. Keep in mind, the water way travels through the hotel and shops, so at certain times (a.k.a weekends and evenings), it can get very noisy and thus, less romantic. Also, the cost is $16 per adult - pretty pricey in my mind.
2 adults 4 children split between 2 gondolas. There are two rides one inside the hotel, one outside. We rode indoors. Tried it to kill some time after touring the Strip on foot all day.
Slightly pricey but so's everything in Vegas. Ticket line was a hassle... very crowded in a small shop but once you have tix, they give you a time to ...

You never feel alone on the gondola

Go by yourself or with others. It's magically relaxing . The Gondelier sings better than you could ever imagine. It's well worth the money. I will definetely do this again.

Pricey Ride
By Mona, 07/08/08
The Venetian is a Beautiful Hotel and there is so much to see in there. I would however pass the Gondola Ride. I was going to ride with my cousin and we were unaware of the price to ride Private meaning just for us two. The price was going to be $63.00....WHAT!!!! Go see Madame Tussauds there.

So romantic!
By Kristin G, 06/28/08
We took the outdoor gondola ride at sunset. Watching the lights come on in the neighboring hotels and buildings was magical. Our guide was sweet and funny, and when my husband and I weren't being romantic, our gondolier was making us laugh. He had an amazing voice! I heard a couple other gondoliers sing, and they were fabulous as well. I highly recommend doing this at least once! You won't regret it!

Felt like the real thing!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/28/08
The gondola ride was beautiful and felt like we really were in Italy! Just a heads up, they only allow 4 people at a time in each gondola, and it doesnt matter if they are children or adults, it's strict to 4 people. My family and I rode and we had to split up. Nontheless, the ride was very nice (and so was the singing!) and I would definitely go again.

the Luxor was awesome
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/19/08
The Luxor was magnificent and I really liked the three or four swimming pools that they had outside the hotel. The food was pretty good and the rooms were very nice.
