Excellent
The tour guide was very knowledgeable and interesting. She made an effort to take us off the main streets and avoid the crowds. The gondola ride at the end was very nice.

We took the walking tour with Shannon. She was an amazing tour guide. With 3 little kids it was nice to have someone with an American accent so they could understand and ask questions. We learned a lot. Great tour!

Great
We booked directly through Walks of Italy. Matteo knows a lot about the history, and walked us through various alleys around the city, explained the significance and the stories only a local would know. I am giving four stars because we were surprised to learn that St. Mark’s Basilica was excluded just that morning (the operator should know about it and did not).
