Our guide Marco was a perfect mix of education and entertainment. The gondola was a nice break from walking. Lunch in your own broke up the day.

Perfect tour to see major sights and enjoy unique experiences like a gondola ride all in one day. Guide was friendly and very informative. Meeting point instructions were clear and descriptive.

It was a great experience learning all about Venice and its history through our guide, Elena. She was very friendly and knowledgeable about Venice and Italy. We had a great time overall and I definitely recommend this tour for everyone. We had two boys - 13 and 7 and they enjoyed the entire tour from 8:30am to 2pm with no complaints. A couple of breaks for food/snacks helped them.

Filippo es un gran guía! Es muy simpático y te explica detalles que no imaginabas. El tour tiene descansos que ayudan a recuperarse. Es muy bonito porque incluyen mucho más que la plaza de San Marcos, la basílica y el paseo en góndola.
