Good
Easy to find location, informative guide, gondola ride was fun but short. Recommend doing a ride that goes by bridge of sighs to get shots of things you can't see well from land.

Ride was short but good experience, it takes you through the smaller canal then to the grand canal, good to see both.

I think the gondola ride was the highlight of our time in Venice. A little shorter than 30 mins, but lovely all the same. The information beforehand was interesting.
