It's not easy to take all the tourists to the sights they want to see in Venice — because everyone wants to admire the same beautiful and impressive monuments.
In Gondolieri, players slip into the role of the gondolieri, who take their passengers to the most sought-after sights. After the first roll of the dice, the player decides with which of their gondolieri they want to advance. Each gondoliere has a different destination that they want to get as close to as possible. You can roll the dice more if you'd like, and as long as you roll the right color, the gondoliere can continue to move forward.
There is only one problem: There is always a traffic jam at the Rialto Bridge — and after that the gondoliere has to continue in one go until they reach their destination because otherwise they will be too late for new guests. Keep an eye on the opposing gondolieri as they can still profit from the remaining dice!
