Beat Expectations

Published on Jan, 2025

Didn’t expect much given the low price and availability only 3 hours prior, but this tour was great. It started with a Virtual Reality show of Venetian history. Valentina gave us an extremely informative tour of highly relevant aspects of how Venice became what it is today.

Perfect for getting oriented to Venice

Published on Feb, 2024

Francesco was interesting, well informed and engaging. The tour was a perfect way to start our 5 day stay to get oriented to the city. The rest of our visit was enhanced by our walking tour. We saw such a variety of sites, got so much information that we wouldn’t have gotten from a tour book. Great tour.

You won’t regret doing this tour

Published on Nov, 2022

This was a great walking tour! There’s no way that we would have discovered all those hidden places away from the center on our own. Our guide was so great at explaining everything. Even my 12 year old enjoyed the tour very much. Highly recommend!!

WOW!!

Published on Aug, 2021

What a day! I've spent a weekend in Venice with my girlfriend and we really enjoyed this new concept of guided tour. After 45mins we could jump off to have a quick break and then we jump on to finish our tour. Both guides were fantastic! - I recommend it!
