| THE FLOATING CITY |
The city of Venice sets official rates for gondola rides, which started at €80 for 40 minutes.After 7 p.m., the base rate climbs to €100, with €50 for an additional 2 minutes.This doesn't mean you'll actually pay 80 euros, or that you'll get a 40-minute ride. Depending on demand, gondoliers may regard the official rates as a polite fiction.Up to six people can share a gondola.
