Highly recommended experience - Hadar was a fantastic guide We saw Venice through a local University student’s experience, learning not only about the city’s history, but his. He introduced us to local experiences and places like the best bookstore in the world and the art installations of the Bianale that we would note have seen on a traditional tour. One of our favorite experiences of our 14 day Mediterranean cruise.

Learning About The Locals - Vittoria exceeded expectations and provided us with a wonderful tour of Venice (on the island where she lives). We requested to see the “not frequented touristy places” and to give us a snippet of what it is like to live in Venice. She showed us hidden gems and shared the historical and current relevance/stories of the sites we visited. We felt like one of Vittoria’s friends that came to visit her. She was very warm and personable. We were so glad that she was our own personal guide. We actually did this booking through “Get Your Guide” but the actual company that hired Vittoria is Lokafy. FYI.

A different view of Venice. - We asked our guide Blanca to show us Venice outside the touristy areas. She took over the Academia bridge to the university area and walked a much quieter and interesting part of Venice. Had a great opportunity to get away from the crowds and see another side of Venice.

Great walking tour of Venice - This was an amazing tour. We did 2 hours around Venice with Lydia. She was very informative and took us through many little hidden places, helped us taking pictures and gave us ideas of what to do in the next few days. She was really nice and sweet, texted me the next day to give me more information about an event in the city. 100% recommended.

Failed miserably - The operator didn’t even inform that they are not coming, we reached the meeting point and waited 15 mins to find out they are not coming. Called several times and didn’t answer the phone also. Had come all the way from Milan for one day to see Venice. Not reliable operator won’t recommend that you risk it .
