“Es una actividad que no sirve para nada. Te llevan en una lancha apenas de tres personas. Lo peor es que no vas a ver absolutamente nada. Solo te llevan por la laguna en la zona industrial porque no tiene permitida la entrada por lo canales de Venecia . Que es lo que el turista desea ver. No lo recomiendo encima cuesta 250€ es una barbaridad. La barca se movía y era muy pequeña e inestable hasta el punto que parece que te vas caer. El chico por la contra muy majo y agradable.”
