Murano, Burano and Venice highlights!
Remarkedly romantic and informative tour. Got to see several islands via private water taxi. Private viewing of Murano glass blowing by a Master was a real treat. We got to see multiple techniques. The museum was stunning, and of course we had to go home with some wine glasses. Burano was a site to behold. A colorful panorama of homes, quaint shops, and restaurants. The scent of “Frito Misto” permeated the air. Our guide Gulia is an absolute delight. She is Venetian and is full of enchanting stores and passion for her homeland. We shared Prosecco and Venetian Spritz’s (made with Select instead of Aperol) and Chicchettis. Gratzie Millie Gulia!

Great day with Carlos in the Dolomites!
We had an amazing day in the Dolomites with Carlos and our small group of 8. We were able to stop at Cortina as well as several other scenic spots for photos and exploration. Our lunch was delicious, gnocchi with beef ragu! The day was long but well worth it! If you’re in Venice and want a day trip in nature you must do this tour.

Incredible views
Our driver and guide was AMAZING! She gave commentary on the way out and answered questions. Was very helpful with our elderly family member. Bring snacks, during the shoulder season the food choices are limited. We must have taken 100 pictures at each stop!

This tour will not show you the typical tourist attractions, however, if you want to see less visited canals, alleys, etc., and get recommendations for places where the locals eat, this is a good tour for you. We also visited what was historically the Jewish ghetto, which was quite interesting.

Great tour in Venice!!
This tour was wonderful. Our tour guide Claire was amazing and made the experience so enjoyable. She had so much knowledge to share and she was so entertaining. Claire remembered everyone’s name which I thought was amazing and something special. We got to see the locations for a good amount of time. I’m so glad we did the tour. It was well worth the money for such a great experience. I would absolutely recommend.

Exceptional
We had a lovely day in the beautiful hill country. Carlos was an amazing host/guide. He took us to the most interesting vineyards where we learned about so much more than the wine. I loved the biodiversity efforts at Cal Monda and the wine was so good! Our lunch at the Osteria owned by Carlo’s family was so delicious and we had the VIP experience and met some of his family. Our final stop at Mun Ban was incredible. Matteo had an infectious energy and passion. We loved the entire day!!!

Beautiful tour! The boat...
Beautiful tour! The boat tour was perfect. The bakery is amazing. Loved the glassblowing demo and 50% at their shop.
We also had time to stop for espresso in Murano and for Chicetti on the water in Burano. The tour guide Allegra gave a great suggestion about where to go.
In March it was warm in the morning and then a bit cool on the water. Make sure you wear jackets on cooler days.

We had Phillipo as our tour guide. He was outstanding!!! So funny and so knowledgeable. I was highly impressed with how much he knew about the history of Venice. He was also very welcoming and kind. I would highly recommend this tour for a full experience of the Doge Palace and Basilica, but most importantly I would recommend it with Phillipo as your tour guide if you’re able to ask for a specific person!!

When life gives you lemons… make lemon juice!
Unfortunately it was raining and snowing so hard we did not get to see the dolomites… but our tour guide Giovanni was very professional that he improvised our schedule and had us do something meaningful in place of the actual tour. It’s Giovanni’s professionalism, patience, and the fact that he did his best to do the tour until we could no longer proceed safely that still made it worthwhile for me. From my perspective, not having seen the dolomites as planned just gives me a reason to come back next time!

Perfect after dinner show
We had a fantastic time in Venice. We were looking for a type of show which captures a bit of elegance. Adding classical music and a bit of opera after dinner. The costumes and performers were fantastic! Get there early if you have a seating preference as it in chairs lined no stadium seating so if you are shorter sighting may be limited and if you arrive later with company you may not be able to sit together. Just as an FYI

Rafaelle and his Staff...
Rafaelle and his Staff ran a great tour of the sites of Venice, explaining to us the history of the city and showing the main sites St Marks, the Rialto Bridge, the shortcuts through the winding alleyways and of course a fantastic gondola ride through the canals. Time well spent

Excellent tour
🌄 A Perfect Day in the Dolomites! 🇮🇹✨
Today we explored the breathtaking Misurina Lake, often called the “Pearl of the Dolomites.” Surrounded by dramatic mountain peaks and reflected perfectly in its crystal-clear waters, it’s a scene straight out of a postcard! 💙
After soaking in the alpine beauty, we continued on to Cortina d’Ampezzo — a charming, picture-perfect village filled with cozy cafés, boutique shops, and stunning views in every direction. 🏔️☕🛍️
This region will be in the world’s spotlight soon as host of the 2026 Winter Olympics, but right now it’s a peaceful mountain escape full of Italian charm.

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Pulling yourself away from Venice’s splendor can be a challenge, but this city on the sea is the perfect base for exploring the surrounding Veneto region or even further afield. Venice day trips are a seamless way to visit destinations as close as islands in the Venetian lagoon or as far as the UNESCO-listed Dolomite peaks without managing tricky logistics alone. Sip Prosecco in the Valdobbiadene vineyards, admire iconic sports cars in the Motor Valley museums or discover Veneto gems like Verona and Lake Garda with hassle-free transportation directly from Venice.
