Exceeded our expectations. Our lovely Gondoliera graced us with her beautiful singing in Spanish, Portuguese and English. A perfect hour that I didn't want to end. We were warm under soft blankets provided and even given glasses and a wine opener to enjoy a bottle we brought. The owners, Leah and Gyorgy, were delightful. We can't recommend this enough.

What a sweet way to spend an afternoon! Amelia is such a light—so joyful and kind—and her energy really set the tone for the whole ride. My best friends were visiting Oakland for the first time, and they were totally blown away. The views of the city from the water were stunning, the music was perfect, and it was just really peaceful and fun to watch everything happening around the lake. Honestly, it was one of those “wow, life is good” moments. Super chill, super special. Highly recommend.

If you're looking for a truly special and romantic experience in the Bay Area, Dolce Vita Gondola is an absolute must! From the moment we stepped onto the beautifully crafted gondola, we felt like we had been transported straight to Venice. Our gondolier was not only skilled but also incredibly charming, sharing stories and singing as we glided through the calm water. We had blankets and even received a cup of warm tea for the ride! Every detail was carefully curated to provide an authentic and intimate gondola ride. Whether... read more
