Amazing Venice Tour - 5 stars for Najma and Lorenzo! They made sure everyone knew where they were going and that things are kept on time, which is important since Venice is quite far from Milan.

Beautiful experience - Oh my goodness this was a great trip. The guides wanted to make sure we were having a good time. The tour guide in Venice was so funny and very knowledgeable. We went the first week of March which is not in season. I would not want to go in the summer with crowds as there is only so much room in this area.

Awesome, but… - The Venice day trip was great! Awesome guide! Salvatore, our guide was really awesome! The Zani tours in Milan which viator partnered with weren’t that great! They were rude and unempathetic. Also the bus to Venice did not have working power outlet. For this long tour. The bus must have working outlets to charge phone etc. The hotel pickup was great, but they picked up an hour earlier and made us wait on the road as the tour start time wasn’t until then. But bec if a great guide, id still give five stars. Could not have asked for more!!

Beautiful Venice - Our guide Salvator was amazing and quite the history buff. We really enjoyed learning while we took the bus to Venice. Everything was explained very well in terms of what to expect. He gave us a heads-up on bathrooms and even offered to let me have a coin to go to the paid one. Once we arrived where the busses parked we took a ferry and then walked to St Mark's square. Our tour guide within Venice was very funny and engaging. We saw a glass blowing demonstration. We had some free time to walk about. We took a gondola ride, it felt too short. It was very crowded but we were able to sit and have a bite at a cafe and get some stuff from the vendors. Its a very beautiful place to visit.

Lost in venice - The city itself was beautiful, and surreal. The trip was very long, quite boring and they left 5 of us in Venice. I as a blind person requested assistance but absolutely none was given apart from some other guests on the trip. I was left to my own devices in the first stop to get food and drink, and we were informed about a gondola ride. The ride was cash only and again no one helped me get cash but just told me to go to cash machines or currency exchange. Not really the help I needed but I managed. The tour of the glass making factory was a quick 2/3 minute demo of something being made and then a tour of everything you can buy, more of a sales pitch rather than insight into making etc. We were made aware of some points of attraction but was quite misinformed. We were recommended several times to visit the realtor bridge as it was “10 minutes away from pick up point” we went on recommendation and that’s how we became lost and stranded in Venice. I was phoned by the company but there was no help really as with my sight issue they couldn’t help. They pin pointed me but said I was too far away to help me so they had to leave me. I managed to get to the station with the help of a street vendor and caught the train back to my hotel at a cost of €59. This was actually better in the end as even though I’d paid for “pick up and drop off” we were informed they don’t actually drop you off, so it’s more like pick up service. As you can tell here it’s more about getting you there rather than much else. I’d definitely recommend going to Venice but maybe plan your own trip. I don’t really know if it’s viatours issue or the company they use in Milan but I’d definitely not recommend the Milan company.
