Some tips:
- Arrive a bit before the booked time to ensure you do not miss your gondola. Gondolas usually run on strict schedules and it would be unfortunate to miss your ride because of a small delay.
- If the sun has already set, the cold could sneak up on you. Bringing additional warmth in the form of a blanket or an extra jacket is definitely recommended. Also, mittens or gloves could come in handy.
- Remember, the goal of this date is to spend quality time together, so keep your phone usage to a minimum. Instead, focus on the environment and each other, taking in the beautiful views of the city and enjoy each other's company.
