What a great concept, a fun way to tour the canals and a great experience for kids. Sticking to a simple loop along quieter canals makes it a pretty stress free experience.Full review by joelthepole
We are family of 5 people. 2 adults, 1 senior (my mom 68 yrs) and 2 kids (10 and 14 yrs). Coming to Venice mid June 2020. I was thinking of booking batela. What times of day should we look for good experience( without much congestion, nice views, not too hot)? Does the guide also talk about history/give as info about landmarks as we pass across it? PS - We are vegetarians (cichetto row may not be an option?) Thanks Lata

Hi, We have a batela for 5 people available for your rowing lesson. We operate in a quiet part of the city, so you never have to worry about crowds. Our expert Venetian rowing instructors will highlight some interesting aspects of the area, but this is a rowing lesson and we concentrate on Venetian rowing, traditional boats, Venice and the lagoon, etc. We can adapt the Cichetto Row to a vegetarian diet. More questions can be answered on our website descriptions and in the FAQ. If you need more information please contact us there. Grazie!
