How Many Passengers Per Gondola?

A traditional Venetian gondola can accommodate up to 5 passengers, plus the gondolier. If you're travelling in a larger group, you'll need to book multiple gondolas. Please note that some tour operators limit their gondolas to 4 passengers, particularly when extras such as a serenade are included. The safest option is to book a private gondola ride for up to 5 people. Prices are fixed per gondola, not per person, so the cost remains the same whether there are 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 passengers per Gondola.
