Gondola Adventures has custom features and specialty enhancements that we have pioneered in the industry. For example, the President of our company developed the "Message in a Bottle" in 1993, wherein a custom love-note is silently dropped in the water by your gondolier, and then spotted and retrieved by your guest. Many companies claim to have "Venetian" gondolas, but often their gondolas are not actually imported from Venice. The Venetians have been making gondolas for nearly 1000 years, and it is truly an art form. All of Gondola Adventures' rowing gondolas are imported from Venice and are propelled by oar and oarlock (Remo e Forcola) in the manner that gondolas are traditionally rowed in Venice, Italy. Additionally, Gondola Adventures has the only operating wedding gondolas west of the Mississippi. Wedding gondolas have carved decks and the most ornate decorations. One of our wedding gondolas, the Lucia, has a canopy cover (available upon request). There is nothing that quite compares to the real thing. At the opposite end of the spectrum are our Neo-Venetian gondolas, these boats have silent electric motors so the gondoliers steer, rather than row. Some are all black, while others are mahogany and black with inlaid roses and beautiful canopy covers. The elegant and distinctive interiors surround you in comfort. These more contemporary craft have a little more range and can, if requested in advance, travel further (which is nice in a harbor that is six miles long from one end to the other). Almost all of our cruises include a leisurely tour through the canal area at the north end of Newport Harbor a very romantic and relaxing experience.
