Skip glassblowing! - The gondola ride was really cool and definitely a great price when compared to the price you'd pay if you paid at a gondola station. I would skip the glass blowing portion. It's really a gimmick to rhen hit you up on a semi-hard sale to buy some of their very expensive glass products.

Great Gondola ride around... - Great Gondola ride around Venice. Glass blowing demo was literally 5 minutes and then you were into a very expensive shop of glass. We didn't stay long here.

Terrible start to end - The meeting location was a nightmare to get to, we couldn’t find it for over two hours. The directions they give you on the ticket is almost useless. GPS does not work well here. The glass blowing demo is less than 3 min. The remaining 30 min is them trying to sell you 1K-4K blown glass. I had to call the help number to find where the guide went for the gondola ride. The gondola ride sucks, it’s 6 people PACKED on a boat and the guy rowing is smoking a cigarette or talking to the other rowers the entire time. No, they will NOT sing to you. DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS EXCURSION!
