Venice walking tour and gondola ride: where the boat is included
A Venice walking tour and gondola ride on this site costs $72 to $303 when the gondola is part of the booking, or $1,007 for a private day that adds the Doge’s Palace. The $72 tour is a 2-hour listing: a walk around St Mark’s Square and a 20-minute shared gondola. The $76 combo runs three hours, past La Fenice and onto the quiet canals. The $303 tour is private and ends with 30 minutes on a gondola. One more listing, at $560, makes the gondola optional. Here is which is which.
Quick answer
The short answer. Gondola included: $72 (2 hours, 65 reviews at 4.5), $76 (3 hours, 285 reviews at 4.4) and $303 (private, 2.5 hours, 4 reviews). Gondola as an add-on: the $560 highlights walk and the $30 city centre walk. For the most reviewed Venice walking tour and gondola ride, take the $76 combo.

Combo or two bookings
A Venice tour with gondola ride included, or two separate bookings?
The cheapest guided walk on this site costs $27 for two hours, rated 4.8 on 1,597 reviews; that is the lowest price on the whole site. The top pick is a different tour, the $41 shared Grand Canal gondola, chosen for its 26,711 reviews. Book the two separately and you pay $68.
The $72 and $76 combinations cost $4 and $8 more than that, and put a Venice walking tour and gondola ride in one booking. The separate route gives you the higher-rated walk and a gondola listed at 30 minutes to 2 hours; the combination gives you one booking and one plan for the day.
A Venice gondola and walking tour in one booking makes most sense when time is short: the $72 listing fits both into two hours.

Is it worth it
Is a Venice walking tour with gondola ride worth it?
On ratings, the two lower-priced combinations sit at 4.4 and 4.5: above the 4.2 of the shared gondolas and below the 4.8 of the $27 highlights walk. Their review counts are modest, 285 and 65, against 1,597 and 26,711 for the separate parts.
A Venice walking tour and gondola ride is worth it for the convenience, not for a saving: you pay $4 to $8 more than two separate bookings and get one plan for the day. The private $303 tour is the cheapest way to have the whole outing to yourselves, and with 4 reviews it is also the least tested.

Venice walking tour and gondola ride questions
Is the gondola included in a Venice walking tour and gondola ride?
On four listings here, yes: $72, $76, the private $303 tour and the $1,007 private day. On the $560 highlights walk and the $30 city centre walk, the gondola is something you add.
How long is the gondola part?
20 minutes, shared, on the $72 tour, and 30 minutes on the private $303 tour. The $76 combo runs three hours in all, with a two-hour stroll, and does not state the gondola time.
Where do these tours start?
St Mark’s Square comes first in the descriptions of the $72 and $303 tours; the $76 combo names the old quarters and La Fenice without saying where it begins. The exact meeting point is on each listing.
Is the gondola shared with other people?
On the $72 tour, yes: its description says a 20-minute shared gondola ride. The $303 tour is private, gondola included. The $76 description does not say, so check the listing.
Is it cheaper to book the walk and the gondola separately?
Slightly. The $27 highlights walk and the $41 shared gondola come to $68, against $72 and $76 for the combinations. You save $4 to $8 and make two bookings instead of one.
Which combination has the best reviews?
By count, the $76 combo: 285 reviews at 4.4. By rating, the private $303 tour at 4.8, but on 4 reviews, and the optional-gondola walk at 5.0 on 22.
