Great Bucket List Realized - Great tour, we would have been lost without guide. Very interesting info, but too much talk about celebrities that have visited Venice Gondola ride was GREAT, longer than I thought it would be. Only drawback was the transition from walking tour to gondola was a little unorganized.

Venice walking tour - Overall a good city walking tour which will give you an impressive overview of Venice and its many nooks and crannies. The Gondola ride (obviously) was wonderful. Only honest feedback is, the overall pace could be a little slower especially for first timers to grasp the essence.
