Informative, Interesting and great Value - This was excellent. Our guide, Miheala was superb. The pace was just right and she imparted loads of interesting information. Anytime something wass happening around us she took the oportunity to explain what was going on. Miheala also gave us some great tips for things to visit and see and also other useful facts. The group had some mixed ages and she kept the pace perfect for all. I would definitley recommend.

Unforgettable Experience - Lorenzo was an amazing tour guide with so much information to share! We definitely got our steps, and we were able to see all the hidden and peaceful sides of Venice that most tourists wouldn’t see!

See Venice like a local and ask the Sebastiano - Our guide Sebastiano was engaging, knowledgeable and overall a pleasure to meet and learn from. As a native Venetian he is passionate about his home and all the history and lore that makes it an amazing location everyone should visit. We learned about the hidden gems, unknown lookouts and personal stories that drive any good immersion experience. Would highly recommend this tour and more specifically Sebastiano.

Beautiful Walking Tour - Michiela, our guide, was fantastic! She was very knowledgeable and gave us the history behind the northern part of Venice while we toured it, which is much more residential than the touristy southern part! We enjoyed seeing the spectacular views of the lagoon as well!

Nice but pace was not to our taste (too slow) - Tour guide was very knowledgeable and pleasant but so so slow in moving. I understand the need to adapt to all in the group but there was no happy medium here. We crawled along, overtaken by all other groups. When a question was asked, we all had to come to a complete standstill. It was genuinely annoying, esp in the rain and later full on sun.

Sebastiano is a very... - Sebastiano is a very personable young man The intro should have been away from all the noise of the canal as it was distracting Our tour started late waiting for 2 no shows and ended early The tour was informative We were supposed to end at the Rialto market but stopped 15 mins away from the market
