Our tour was a great welcome to Venice by Elenora. She was informative with the history of the city and the walk was pleasant.

Amazing experience with Martina. She took us to see the quieter side of Venice. Very educational and engaged.

A fun and informative tour with Julianno. Walk was well planned & thought out with a short & much appreciated, midway comfort break. Many nuggets of interest delivered with humour by a local man with an obvious love for Venice. St Mark's Basilica was impressive. Good to end the tour with a gondola ride.
