What are people saying about Venice

Loved It!
The Luxury Tour of Murano & Burano by private boat and guide was easily one of the best experiences we had in Venice. From the moment we started, everything felt premium, well organized, and thoughtfully designed. Visiting both islands by private boat adds a completely different level of comfort and exclusivity, allowing you to enjoy the scenery without the crowds and typical tourist rush.
What truly made this tour exceptional was our guide. He was absolutely spectacular. His family is directly involved in the glassmaking tradition in Murano, which gave the entire experience a much deeper and more authentic perspective. You’re not just hearing generic explanations, you’re getting real insight from someone who is personally connected to the craft. That alone elevates the value of the tour significantly.
On top of that, he spoke excellent Spanish, which made everything even more fluid and enjoyable. His way of explaining, his knowledge, and his attitude made a huge difference throughout the day. Overall, this is a top-tier experience in Venice and definitely something we would recommend if you’re looking for a more exclusive, meaningful, and high-quality tour.

Best tour we have ever been on!
This experience was excellent! It is the best tour our family has ever been on, hands-down! Our guide, Riccardo, was exceptional. Extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. I loved that he reached out a few weeks prior to the tour to provide us with all of the details. He was prompt and organized! Pickup was very easy and the meeting spot was easily found. Laura, the vineyard owner, was wonderful! She was very engaging and provided an extremely entertaining tour. We learned so much about how Prosecco is made and about the region! The Prosecco we tasted was delicious beyond words. Laura also served us a tasty lunch in a gorgeous setting. We honestly don’t know how we will ever top this tour! We highly, highly recommend it! From start to finish it was the best day of our vacation. We will never forget it!

Thank you Claudia!
A great way to visit the islands without having to think about anything and get a whole experience! We saw glass blowing, a lace demonstration, and had little cookies. Plenty of free time to explore the islands at your pace and shop. We ate at Burano, shopped at them all! Claudia did a great job telling us about everything we were passing and the history behind it.

Beautiful and delicious food tour off the beaten track - see Venice through the eyes of a local
Giulia was absolutely wonderful. We had such a lovely tour around the cannaregio, eating the most delicious food! Best risotto I've ever had, a lovely introduction to the Venetian variety of spritz, and the pizza! We went back to one of the places the next day for more pizza. As it was during the week, the tour was just my sister and myself, and Giulia included a little walk as well which was lovely and great for digestion! I slept wonderfully last night. Thank you so much for showing us around, Giulia! We hope to see you next time, when we bring the rest of our family! No photos I'm afraid, as we were too busy enjoying the tour and chatting with Giulia.

Amazing experience
Our guide Marina made this tour the most amazing experience. She took us to the places that the locals frequent making it an authentic experience. My 15yr old son even had a great time, and you know how hard it is to make teenagers happy!!! She was knowledgeable, engaging, and just a great guide all the way around. It was like sightseeing with an old friend who lives locally. Would recommend this tour 1000%. Thanks again Marina!!!! We left with our bellies and hearts full!

A Flavorful Journey!
Our Jewish Ghetto food, wine and gelato tour with Vanessa was an absolute delight, blending rich history with unforgettable flavors. From the kosher bakery’s cookies to the small plate samples and seafood ragu…and a unique Venetian Select spritz, every stop was a treat. Vanessa’s warmth and knowledge made the evening seamless, even when we nearly missed the start. A perfect 5-star experience that you will not walk away from hungry!

Arrived in Venice under a cloud of challenges. Day two, we spent with Antonio and he was our sunshine. We had him to ourselves to enjoy his stories, share his experiences and get an insider’s view of Venice. He gave us five hours of insights when we only expected three. Bless you Antonio🥰

Fun day! Yummy food!
We were changed to a different tour which worked out better. Our guide Denys was AWESOME. He spoke good English and was very knowledgeable and funny. If we didn't like the option of items being offered he arranged some other item for us to taste. Great time!

Great tour because of a great tour guide
It started off a little unexpected. It was because there was a strike and our original tour guide could not make it today. I do not know how my original tour guide would have been but their replacement was excellent. We basically spent the day with him and he was absolutely terrific. We enjoyed the tour, he was funny, and very knowledgeable.

Wonderful
Perfectly seamless! Matteo was a wonderful guide. Being in a private boat in a small group enabled us to avoid crowds and just enjoy the islands. This tour also included a visit to the monastery which was so beautiful and peaceful (and not included in many other tours). Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful tour...
We had a wonderful tour of St. Mark’s/Doge and walking through Venice that ended with a private gondola ride. Our guide Marie was amazing!! Extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Loved her sense of humor and she made it fun for our 15/11 year old kids!!! Marie went the extra step to make sure our private gondola ride was all set before she left us. Highly recommend this tour!
