La Gondola Providence, Inc.

It was breathtaking very nice for me and my boyfriend for his birthday, they give you some wine biscuits and they have wine, glasses, and ice and everything ready for you and umbrella. In case it rains and a blanket in case you’re cold overall this is a really very nice Experience, they even saying to us under the bridge. It was so beautiful. I would definitely highly recommend doing this

Wonderful old-world boat ride 🛶 experience that tours through central downtown Providence. The paddler guide also sings opera 🎶 while you sit back and relax. Was visiting with family and this was a pleasant experience. Highly recommend this ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👍🏼

Such a fun experience! Def recommend to do while in providence - see Patricio! We definitely enjoyed being on the river and had a nice time on the gondola.

What a peaceful and pleasant experience! Our gondolier Angelo was very knowledgeable about the sites we were seeing and also had the most amazing voice - yes they sing Italian songs to you! Highly recommended.

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.

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.

Absolute must to check out if you're in the area. We took a ride right after dinner over at plant city and it was so dreamy. Gennaro was our guy; told us about the city in the right parts, sang us songs and overall gave us that over and above experience. Perfect cap to a vacation.

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!

My girlfriend and I had a lovely ride with Angelo who is a knowledgeable gondolier, a friendly guy, and he has an amazing singing voice to boot! I would recommend this to anyone looking for a great time in Providence!

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!

I booked this for me and my mom on mother's day weekend and we loved it! We had two gondoliers with us, one a younger man and the other a younger woman, both extremely nice and personable, answered any questions we had, but most of all their voices when they sang were so beautiful!! The young woman offered me and my a blanket to keep warm before we set off because it was a very windy day and she saw we were a bit cold, I thought that was very nice! They give you biscuits to try which we didn't until we got home the next day and they were actually really good, sweet but not to sweet. This is a once and a lifetime experience, I definitely recommend booking a trip with them when your in Providence next time!

One of the most unique experiences in Providence! I thoroughly enjoyed the gondola ride, and Marcello was incredible :) I was with my best friend and we enjoyed our drinks and the complimentary biscuits were so good we went back to the bakery too! Highly recommend supporting Marcello, and his fellow gondoliers :) it was perfect, I would love to do it again.

Had the most relaxing time on the gondola ride after a long eventful day on our first trip to Providence. Marcello was our gondolier and I am so thankful we had the pleasure of riding with him, he serenaded with classics in the most beautiful voice. Special thanks to Marcello for making our late night ride just perfect.

Truly the best part of our trip to RI. We decided on a last minute trip to providence due to school April vacay for the kiddos AND my littlest ones birthday was the next day. I scrambled to find activities for us to do as a family and saw this an option. Some reviews on another platform actually made me hesitate but once I spoke to Marcello. I was sold. He did not try to market the experience to me. He candidly explained how things worked, informed me of the costs (was super grateful to learn my two youngest ones were free riders), talked to me about timing and completely left the decision up to me. I told him my concerns were the weather because the forecast predicted rain. Marcello told me he understood and was flexible with me about the commitment. Of course as we arrived and went back to our car to rush to catch the gondola ride, it starts raining. Not only was Marcello responsive, he was still responsive and willing to work with whatever we decided (even if it meant moving to the next day). Gustavo, our perfect and hardworking Gondolier met us by the van and let us know how he could accommodate us. He was prepared with umbrellas and blankets to help ease the chill and wetness. Between Gustavo and Marcello, we decided to go for it and it was such a delightful experience. Gustavo was such a relaxing presence, very kind and really worked against all the elements (rain, strong winds). He sang wonderfully, answered all our questions, and made sure we were comfortable. Fortunately, the rain did let up so we were able to enjoy majority of the ride without needing the umbrellas.
I highly recommend this experience. It is perfect for families with littles, couples, friends...all of us truly enjoyed the relaxing, scenic ride with a kind soul.

Thank La Gondola for such a fabulous experience. we loved it!

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.

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.

Wonderful service and great experience. I've taken 2 trips with them and each time was memorable. I suggest getting the ride with music. You can choose mandolin, violin or guitar. Your gondolier will also sing at various points in the trip. Will definitely be visiting again.

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!
