Nice experience - I joined this tour of Venice with my group of friends and we could not ask for anything better. We visited beautiful and suggestive corners of the city thanks to our guide, Giada, who explained everything in 3 different languages and great enthusiasm!

Walking and Cruising Venice - It was a wonderful tour and the tour guide was very informative. We walked through many different parts of the city and really learned about how the city was build and the different neighborhoods. I really enjoyed learning about the Jewish ghetto. The cruise back to the starting point was icing on the cake. Loved getting to see the city by water.

Great way to get to see... - Great way to get to see an overview of Venice from a knowledgeable guide. Informative but could have been told a specific meeting point like a building or something we weren’t sure w e were at the right place.

Great tour. - My wife and I did the tour yesterday with Irena as our guide. There were 4 Italian speakers and 6 English speakers in the group and Irena made it fun and interesting in both languages. We started at Piazza San Marco and wound our way over canals and through narrow streets and squares to finish at the railway station just over 2 hours later. We learned a lot about Venice’s culture and history and it was also a great way to get our bearings. 5 stars for the tour and for Irena.

A 2 Hour Walk Through Venice - I found it really difficult to find the meeting point, luckily the tour started a little later so I didn't miss it. The writing above the door was in latin which did not obviously look like Cornoldi Palace. Look for the numbers written in small blue writing by the wooden arched door. It was a very relaxed tour, some interesting information was provided, some areas were rushed through eg St Mark's. The tour was primarily a 2 hour walk. The guide was friendly and kind but not fully present for the tour.

Do your own walking your. Do not waste your money on this - The guide gave the tour in 3 languages. Not an easy thing to do as she had to speak the entire time. We did not receive much information on the sites we were visiting - perhaps it was because she had 1/3 of the time to share information. Would not recommend this tour as we could have downloaded a walking tour with more information. Very disappointed with the amount of money we had spent.

Tour was in 3 languages which made it difficult to retain attention - 1st off this is not a reflection of the tour guide. She had to do the tour in 3 languages and rarely had an opportunity to draw breath. And therewithin lies the problem. We thought we were booking an English speaking tour only. It was not clear at time of booking that this was going to be multilingual. As a result we spent most of our time disengaged and even whe it was in English, she was having to rush through and as such was dry and lacked any depth.

We went 30 minutes early... - We went 30 minutes early to confirm meeting point and could not find our guide. We continued to hunt until well after the time passed. We were very disappointed and tempted to cancel today’s tour but will try again.
