Gondola Servizio is pleased to offer daily authentic Venetian gondola cruises from our new home at the historic boathouse on Lake Merritt, located at 1520 Lakeside Drive.

The boathouse is also home to the Lake Chalet Seafood Bar and Grill, offering fine dining with dockside seating, and our very own Venetian Boutique featuring artisan crafts and wares.

Cruises are available seven days a week on a reservation basis. Full details about our operations and pricing are listed here.

We hope you will enjoy picturesque Lake Merritt, with its panoramic views of the exciting urban cityscape and the beautiful Oakland hills. The lake is home to flocks of migratory waterfowl, and in the evening your experience will be illuminated by the necklace of lights that encircles the lake.


Enjoy the luxury and intrigue of the gondola experience with us. Call us toll free at (866) 737-8494 or e-mail a reservation request today.
