    The question is:
    - are there too much gondolas in Venice,
    - is the tour price exorbitant?
    Any of yours opinion is welcome.


    Equipment: There must be something wrong with that gondolas, everywhere one go there is a gondoliere offering gondola tour. You can't negotiate the price, which is in my opinion much too high, and yet most of gondolieri loafing around completely idly.
    There must be a hard work sitting there all day long and card palying.

     Tried to find this lovely restuarant on the recommendation of a family friend last year and it was closed down (no tables/chairs, very dusty, newspaper over windows) :-(
