Great tour!

Published on Jul, 2024

Riccardo was a wonderful tour guide. He did a great job showing us Venice sights as well as sharing information about the history and culture. We would definitely recommend this tour.

Wonderful day of touring!

Published on Apr, 2023

Due to flight delays, we only had 1 full day in Venice and I am so glad that we had planned this tour with Riccardo. Our family group of 5 walked over 6 miles and saw much of what makes the city so unique. Communication via email and WhatsApp was very smooth. Riccardo was super in explaining the history of Venice and what we were seeing as well as make unique stops like the Libreria Acqua Alta bookstore. He picked out a great place for a traditional cicchetti lunch and made advance reservations for the terrace overlooking the city. When our plans to see St Marks the day before got cancelled, he added in the square and the exterior of the Doge's Palace so we didn't miss those highlights. At times, he spoke very quickly and could be a bit hard to understand, but overall this was not an issue for any of us. If you want a fantastic overview of the city (complete with a long list of restaurant recommendations) or just have a short time like we did, a private tour with Riccardo is money very well spent! We look forward to another visit and another tour--grazie!!

Wonderful Day

Published on Jun, 2022

Annachiara spend a wonderful day with us viewing the sites, art and history of Venice. I highly recommend her Venice highlights in a day private tour.

Amazing tours by friendly and fun guides

Published on May, 2022

We did 2 tours during our stay in Venice, one focused in Dorsoduro, and the other on the highlights of Venice. Both amazing, full of an interesting historical context, anecdotes and great recommendations. Two of the best tours we've ever did, definitely recommend to anyone who want to better understand the city beyond its beauty.

Gems and anecdotes of Venice

Published on Jan, 2022

It was a fantastic tour of the city held by a beautiful person. Federico walked us through Dorsoduro and San Polo and showed us some hidden gems of the city. He also provided us with some marvellous anecdotes. We will always remember this experience and highly suggest you to go.
