Serene Experience - The most beautiful scenery! Fantastic boat, very comfortable. David’s was great. A local from Venice that shared experiences, history, & local information. The most amazing sunset! Great way to get out of the hustle & bustle of the city and enjoy serenity.

Perfect Evening on our Venice Vacation - Excellent evening! Davide was a wonderful boat captain, tour guide and chef. Torcello was an unexpected surprise - a quiet and beautiful little spot where we walked and then had a delicious pasta dinner at a sweet little table on the boat. The views were gorgeous and Davide was good company while we relaxed and enjoyed the ride, the sunset and the dinner.

A hidden paradise - Our captain took us to the islands there are around Venice. It was superb; he gave us wine, and he dropped us off to take pictures at these gorgeous places that you only see in movies as he cooks his homemade pasta. Everyone knows him on these islands because these places are where the captain gets his ingredients to make the food. It is a very unique experience; you don’t go through the actual city of Venice; however, the views and sights that you do see make you feel that you not going through same thing as anyone else who visits Venice. 10 out of 10 I would highly advise taking this tour; the food, drinks, and views are amazing

I asked the host if there was any chance of having a fish aperitif with a champagne!! Royal scampi on board, in a bed of ice, fruit, Murano glass glasses and.... background music! to complete a dinner with flakes

Perfect excursion in Venice!! - Our family of 5 (2 teenagers and 3 adults) booked this private boat excursion with Davide as our captain! He was wonderful and very accommodating! Picked us up where it was closest for us. Took pictures the entire day too, which was great to have. I would do it again in a heartbeat! He was always wanting to make sure we were having a great time! Even though it was raining for part of it he gave my daughter his jacket, took us to get ponchos and tracked down hot chocolate for me (which in July is not easy Lol!). He took us to Murano glass factory and we had a more intimate experience than most, even got to hold the pole for the glassmaker! Then we went to Burano and Torcello to have a great fish lunch! The 5 hours we had flew by! It was so much fun! Definitely the one excursion to do.
