A Love-Affair with Venice: The story of Gig Harbor Gondola begins with a personal love-affair with Venice. The owner, who had been captivated by the city's charm and beauty during a visit after high school, developed a deep connection with the Venetian way of life. Years later, after becoming a gondolier and an elementary school teacher, the owner's passion for the water and the ancient art of Venetian rowing led them to partner with a friend and establish Gig Harbor Gondola.

The Venetian Experience in Gig Harbor: Operating from the scenic Gig Harbor Marina & Boatyard, Gig Harbor Gondola offers an authentic Venetian experience against the stunning backdrop of Puget Sound's lush forests. The gondolas, including the splendid "Tomasso Sebastiano" imported directly from Venice, provide an atmosphere of elegance and romance. The skillful gondoliers, trained in the thousand-year-old Venetian style of rowing, ensure a memorable and authentic experience for visitors.
