About This Trip

The Viaggio da Rapsodia is a 40-minute trip which includes everything in our basic trip package with the addition of a live musician to accompany your trip. An experienced gondolier will gently row you along the Providence and Woonasquatucket Rivers, past historical landmarks, through public parks, and under picturesque bridges, while a talented musician of your choice makes music just for you. 

A perfect trip package for a romantic evening out, a fun time with friends, or a special occasion celebration.
