Gondolier Training
Hilton Molino Stucky, Venice

Why it's fun: For three hours, travelers can step into the shoes of a professional gondolier to learn the mechanics of rowing and maneuvering the vessel, the perfect stance to maintain balance, and the aesthetics of gondolier etiquette. The training starts with a gentle ride as you drift thought the canals and learn about the history and magic of Venice and the rich tradition of gondoliering.

Who goes: Honeymooners and others who look for a sense of adventure.

Great add-on: Explore the galleries, with artists in residence, on quiet Guidecca Island, where the hotel is located.

Price: $550 per session, up to five people
