What could be more romantic that an authentic gondola ride. You sit comfortably while your gondola is guided through the water. It is the perfect date destination and is a very L.A. thing to do for fun. Many people have proposed on the gondolas which can be rented for longer periods of time if wanted.

For my birthday this year, my husband gave me the most wonderful surprise. A ride from Newport Gondola Company. What you get is your own private Gondola, a picnic basket with grapes, wine , cheeses and crackers. You get your own personal boat "driver". He takes you for a one hour cruise of the quiet, Newport back bay. You sit in the back with a blanket provided and enjoy the ride and the Italian music the driver plays. This is a very romantic thing to do for a loved one. The owner told my husband and I that this is a very popular place for proposals, so if you are thinking of popping the question, give Newport Gondola a try. The owners are very nice, friendly people who will gladly give you pointer on where to eat close by.
