Bodies of water are frequent metaphors in poetry due to their unfathomable depths, unknowable sprawl, and unattainable porpoises. Set sail into the enigma with today’s Groupon to Gondola Adventures in Henderson. Choose between the following options:

• For $85, you get a Classic Cruise Plus for two (a $195 value).
• For $99, you get a Classic Cruise Plus for four (a $255 value).<p>

Each Classic Cruise Plus includes:

• A 90-minute private gondola ride
• A bottled beverage
• A box of gourmet chocolates<p>

Gondola Adventures sets couples or quartets afloat on Lake Las Vegas, the country’s largest man-made private lake, for a melodious aquatic outing. After boarding a sleek, electric gondola from Italian-themed Montelago Village, wayfarers skim the water’s surface to the tune of their gondolier’s private serenade. Gourmet chocolates and a sparkling beverage nourish tummy butterflies as the ship glides beneath a replica of Italy’s famous Ponte Vecchio Bridge—a cue for sweethearts to lock lips, and for wooden figureheads to shield their eyes and giggle. At the conclusion of their 90-minute jaunt, gondolas skate back to the dock under the wizened gaze of surrounding mountains.

Groupon holders may use today’s Groupon toward another upgraded 90-minute gondola package, or purchase romantic cruise enhancements such as a personalized message in a bottle ($35), one dozen roses ($99), or matching his and hers diving bells.
