Lucia is the best private tour guide we have ever had! - Lucia toured us privately in Venice for the full day and was absolutely fantastic. We spent most of the day in the Jewish Ghetto, as we toured two synagogues and heard about the area’s rich history. We enjoyed a fabulous lunch at one of the two kosher restaurants. Lucia’s knowledge of history and Jewish culture is phenomenal, making this day so very special for my wife and I. She was professional, courteous, funny and so pleasant to be with!

Personalized tour of Venice - Lucia was incredible! I highly recommend her for your tours. We were only in Venice for a day and a half and she put a plan together for us that was perfect. She coordinated 3 separate tours for us. We saw the Murano Glass factory when we first arrived and Lucia had the guide meet us at our hotel. Great tour. She coordinated a tour of the Jewish Ghetto that was terrific. After arranging lunch for us, Lucia met us in the afternoon and led my group on a wonderful tour of Venice, including the Doge. She is extremely personable and knowledgeable. There were 6 of us on our trip. My husband had to find a piece of medical equipment that needed to be replaced for our trip and it was very difficult to locate. Lucia went above and beyond to speak with a company that carried the piece we needed and was patient in explaining to us how to get there. She made everything so easy for us. I can’t thank Lucia enough for all of her help. I highly recommed Lucia for any tour!

Best Venice tourguide! - Our group was two couples. We did a full-day tour of Venice with a trip to Murano and a water taxi tour. Lucia was informative and entertaining. She pre-booked a rooftop experience so we could see the views in a way we'd not have been able to otherwise. We learned a lot and had a great time. The tour was appropriately paced for everyone in the group. We used a different tour guide on a previous trip and Lucia was so much better than the first one.

The only way to tour Venice! - Lucia was a fabulous guide for exploring Venice. A true Venetian, she knew all the best sites and the wonderful alleys to get you there. Seeing Venice through the eyes of a local was more than we could have hoped for. Lucia was kind, funny and incredibly knowledgeable about all things Venice. We enjoyed learning about the history of Venice as well as visiting all the main sites and tasting fabulous foods along the way. I highly recommend a tour with her.

Tour exceeded expectations - We were fortunate enough to have Lucia as our guide on our second visit to Venice. We had a great time, saw a number of interesting places and learned so much more about Venice. Historical sites, local culture and traditions, shopping and food stops were all incorporated. Prior to our arrival in Venice, she even assisted us in purchasing advance tickets to sites not part of her tour. You’ll be impressed with Lucia’s knowledge, personal attention and charm. This was an excellent tour and exceeded expectations. Highly recommended.

Venice Tour with Lucia - Lucia was awesome! She made everything about the tour very easy. She arrived at our meeting place early, and contacted us to make sure we could find her. Lucia was able to show us Venice. She loved her city and her enthusiasm was apparent. We loved her showing us areas of the city that a big group would not. The Murano glass factory was a highlight of my family. Her knowledge and friendly demeanor made our day so special. Her great advice did not end with our tour. Lucia gave us a great recommendation for dinner, and we even followed her suggestion for what to do the next day! Book your tour now before she is all booked up! Highly recommended!!

The best way to experience Venice - Lucia was amazing! she was so knowledgeable, warm, and so much fun to spend the day with. She timed our arrival at some special activities perfectly, and arranged for a water taxi at the end of the day. We would absolutely recommend her.

Fabulous half-day with Lucia! - The St. Marks and Doge Palace tour was so much fun. Lucia is one of the best tour guides our group has ever experienced and we have hired many. She has an incredible depth of knowledge of the Venetian culture and the many sites to see in this amazing city. Her engaging personality and ability to relate so many interesting facts about the city will keep you entertained. I learned so much I didn't know despite having been to Venice several times. I absolutely encourage you to book Lucia. You won't be disappointed.
