Amazing photographer
We had our photos taken on a very rainy day in Venice, but somehow, the rain made the whole scene even more dramatic and romantic!
Our photographer was fantastic. He gave us clear and easy directions on how to pose naturally, which was especially helpful because we’re both quite shy in front of the camera. He was quick to capture the right moments, but somehow managed to catch the most beautiful and genuine expressions.
At first, we were a little nervous, but once we started following his directions, everything felt so natural and effortless. We didn’t have to worry about anything—just trust him and enjoy the moment, and somehow, the magic happens!
We absolutely love the photos and couldn’t be happier with the experience. Thank you for capturing such beautiful memories of our time in Venice! ❤️

Our guide was prompt,...
Our guide was prompt, meeting in the hotel lobby and bringing our group to the water taxi. She was engaging, and fun providing conversation and historical information on the ride to Murano. The demonstration was short but fascinating, providing two examples of items made by the craftsmen. The shop had a wide variety of items for viewing and purchase.

Could not recommend more highly
Our photo shoot was absolutely amazing. Marínela was timely, communicative and professional. She was easy to communicate with in the days before and during our shoot gave clear directions providing us with inspiration for our photos including framing, poses, lighting. When things went slightly awry she was patient and helpful, ensuring we got everything we wanted; including a proposal surrounded by our family. Could not recommend enough.

A very special experience in Venice-not to be missed!
What a wonderful activity this was, a highlight from our short visit to Venice! We loved spending time in this family-run atelier surrounded by all of the beautiful-professionally made masks and learning the fascinating stories behind many of them. Painting our own masks was so much fun and they looked great! Our kids are thrilled to bring home these special souvenirs and memories and have already asked if we could go back for another visit and to paint more masks. I would not hesitate to book this again, thank-you!

The best tour guide I've ever had, on any tour anywhere.
THE FOOD:
I really liked that at each place we had selections. So if you're not an adventurous eater or you have dietary requirements there were options. And for those who wanted to be adventurous could be. All the food was tasty and a nice variety.
FOOD INFO:
She gave great tips on how the Italians eat a meal, the differences between some of their food and other cultures as well as differences between Venetian food and other Italian food.
CITY INFO:
We did more than talk about just food, she gave great tips on the city itself and some of its history. I myself sometimes get bored with too much information, but in this case I found all the information super interesting and/or useful.
THE GUIDE & OTHER INFO:
The tour guide was literally one of my favorites ever. She really set a solid expectation at the beginning of what we can be expecting. For information was interesting and useful. She made sure ahead of the tour to note where all the restrooms would be located on our tour. She definitely pointed out places where we can refill water bottles. And she was happy to answer any questions that did not necessarily pertain to food. At the end of the tour she gave us a link to her recommendations of other places we could try. A++++++
LOGISTICS:
There are minimal amount of bridges to cross. And the largest being right at the beginning. The rest of the tour is pretty leisurely and set at a good pace (not too fast or slow). It should be noticed that most of the places are very limited on seeding and so you will be standing a large part of the time (this may be helpful to know for those with mobility issues).
WHAT TO BRING:
Do suggest bringing a water bottle so that you can refill at the local funds instead of buying water. You can't purchase drinks at each location if desired.

Great Afternoon in Venice with Antonio
Antonio gave us a wonderful tour of Venice with his perspective as a native Venetian. In addition to a skip-the-lines tour of the Doge's Palace and St Mark's Basilica, he had a number of "surprise" venues he was eager to share. Our tour wrapped up with prosecco and sandwiches in St. Mark's Square. What a great afternoon! Be ready to walk and learn!

Unique experience!!
Wonderful event! The actors / musicians performed in separate rooms where they performed right in front of the audience making it seem as though we were part of the act. A very engaging and unique experience! A Venice Opera ! Excellent performance!! Thank you viator for making this event possible!

Captured our first time in Venice
On a whim I booked this experience to get a few family pictures while in Venice. The agency contacted me in advance to ask for what I was looking for and the photographer was also in contact ahead of time. We met in a central location and got to the session. I had a 30 minute session and we were able to include multiple locations which was nice. We had a 9am session and the photographer found ways to keep crowds out of the background. We got our pictures the next day via a secure link and they came out great! I was really happy we decided to do this and it may be a new thing we do as a family each time we travel. The pictures were so much. Nicer than doing selfies as a family. While in Venice you should do this!!!

A lot of beautiful history with great storytelling
Philippe was very knowledgeable and was able to break down centuries of history in a humourous digestible way. I was enraptured in his storytelling and enjoyed his style of guiding. It’s also the Bieniale in Venice and he pointed out hidden gems on our tour. Plus the gondola tour at the end was very nice. Highly recommend.

Murano & Burano
Our guide Valentina was amazing very friendly and knowledgeable. She made the tour interesting and fun. She was also very willing to help me practice my Italian. The tour was amazing beautiful little villages and lots of little stores to explore. I recommend putting this tour on the list of things to do while in Venice.

Our boat guide Tommaso...
Our boat guide Tommaso was there waiting for us at the Meeting Point. He gave us a wonderful tour around the island and we got some Proseco and sodas fir the kids. Beautiful Venetian sunset. He gave us a lot of information about the history of everything we saw. One of our favorite activities on this trip!

Even my 16 year old son approved!
What an amazing experience!!! And all rows are great but if you can upgrade to the first three rows, I highly recommend it!!! But even in the back you will still be so happy bc it’s an intimate venue. I took my 16 year old son and he totally appreciated it. The mix of the instrumental with the tenors made for a wonderful show! And it’s just long enough and not too long!
