Is Traghetto Grand Canal Crossing worth it with kids?
Worth itWith kids
With kids, Traghetto Grand Canal Crossing works.
For about €2 you board a stripped-down gondola, stand up Venetian-style, and cross the Grand Canal in two minutes where there's no nearby bridge — it's the cheapest, most authentic gondola moment in the city. The catch: it's a brisk functional crossing, not a tour, several routes have shrunk or run irregular hours, and you have to know where the stations are.
