Here is the list of the unforgettable experiences that you can live on board of one of our traditional boats that we have restored.
During these lessons you’ll be guided step by step in discovering the art of the Venetian rowing, you’ll learn both theory and practice.
We will also teach you the nomenclature of the boat, of it’s equipment and of the various rowing techniques.
We will make you a professional rower!
The price for a single lesson is of €20. Every lesson will be 60 minutes long.
You can pay lessons singularly, or as a 10 lessons set. This last option allows you to have an incredible discount of €80.
We are practically giving you … lessons for free
NEW: 4 lessson pack: 50€
The difference between the offers is the kind of payment: for the single lesson you’ll pay each time the full price; instead, if you choose one of the the sets, you’ll pay them in advance and all at once.
You can come whenever you want and the set will be valid until the end of the year (it will have the same expire date of your Venice On Board membership card).
We think that 365 days are enough time for 10 rowing lessons, don’t you think so? 😉 (lo smile va messo!)
The 10 lessons set is strictly personal and nominative and can’t be transferred to other people.
