A gondola can carry a maximum of 5 people.
Understanding Gondola Passenger Capacity
When planning a traditional gondola ride, it's important to be aware of the specific passenger limits to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience. The maximum capacity for a gondola is strictly enforced for safety and operational reasons.
This limit of five people is comprehensive and includes all individuals on board, regardless of their age, with one notable exception:
- Adults and Children: All adults and children, regardless of their size or age (over twelve months), are counted towards the maximum five-person capacity.
- Newborn Babies: There is a specific allowance for very young infants. Newborn babies who are under the age of twelve months do not count as one of the five passengers, provided they are held in someone's arms throughout the ride. This means a group of five adults could potentially bring an additional infant under 12 months, as long as the baby is held.
Here's a quick summary of the capacity:
| Passenger Type | Counts Towards 5-Person Limit |
|---|---|
| Adults | Yes |
| Children (> 12 months) | Yes |
| Newborn Babies (< 12 months, held) | No |
Adhering to these guidelines ensures comfort and safety for everyone on the gondola.
