A gondola photoshoot is the most iconic photo you can take in Venice: gliding along the canals under old bridges, with the gondolier behind you and the city reflected in the water. We plan the route, guide your poses and photograph you both on the gondola and on the streets nearby.
Packages start at €219 for 45 minutes with 1 extra street location. Premium (€349) is 60 minutes with 2 extra locations and Gold (€449) is 2 hours with 4 extra locations. The photoshoot on the gondola is included; the gondola rental itself is paid separately.
Best locations for a gondola photoshoot in Venice
Where the gondola photos look best:
- Small canals in Castello and Dorsoduro, quiet and intimate.
- Under the Rialto Bridge on the Grand Canal.
- Near St. Mark's with the lagoon in the background.

- Choose your package and send the booking request with your date and preferred time.
- We plan the route together. Tell us the places you love or let us suggest a route through Venice that fits your style and the light.
- Meet your photographer at the first location. We guide your poses the whole time, so you never have to wonder what to do with your hands.
