Top Venice Private Sightseeing Tours

The tour was wonderful! The guide was very knowledgeable and passionate about the history of the buildings and Venice. If you are looking for a way to avoid the crowds and dig a deeper into the history of the two most famous buildings in Venice then I can’t recommend this tour enough.

My 15 year old daughter and I enjoyed this experience walking around and learning about the local unique art forms of glass blowing and lace making. Giorgia was a wonderful guide and even suffered patiently while I practiced a little Italian 🤣. The private boat transfers were a welcome relaxed treat that enhanced the experience.

This was a fabulous tour of the Doge's Palace - interesting and engaging the entire time. Our tour guide, Edy, was extremely dynamic and pointed out interesting details about the Palace, the history of Venice, and other facts in a way that kept our rapt attention (including the attention of our 8 and 11 year old, who both loved the guide as well). She is a story-teller and is able to relay the history in a way that made it easy to follow and exciting. This is a must-see site in Venice that was made even better by our fabulous guide - highly recommend!

My family would highly recommend Noemi to anyone visiting Venice! She gave us a thorough and engaging tour of this beautiful city, answering all of or questions with thoughtful and detailed responses. Noemi was especially patient and accomodating with our 80 year old father who has mobility issues, making sure he was comfortable throughout the tour. Her kindness, knowledge and professionalism made3 our experience truly6 memorable. Thank you Noemi!

Selena is what made this tour exceptional. As a Venetian, she shared fascinating local history and insights that made every stop more meaningful. She was warm, organized, and engaging, and truly elevated the entire experience. We also had a delicious lunch in Burano at Trexento Pasta, which was one of the highlights of the day. The only downside was the Murano glass showroom. It felt very sales-focused, and many of the pieces were extremely expensive. We later discovered on our own that not everything in the store was made in-house in Murano, and no one mentioned that during our visit. Aside from that, it was an excellent tour that we would definitely recommend, especially with Selena as your guide.

Highly recommended! We had a wonderful tour with Ama during our honeymoon in Venice. From the very beginning, she was kind, friendly, welcoming, and made us feel completely comfortable. What we really loved was how she balanced history, culture, and storytelling. She shared interesting stories about Venice in a fun and engaging way, making the experience both informative and enjoyable. She also showed us beautiful hidden corners of the city, iconic viewpoints, Rialto Bridge, and St. Mark’s Square. Ama went above and beyond to make the tour special for us. She took many beautiful photos of us throughout the tour and helped create unforgettable memories from our honeymoon. She was always attentive, making sure we were comfortable, enjoying ourselves, and getting the most out of the experience. We also loved learning about Venetian culture, local traditions, food, and daily life. She even took us for delicious gelato and shared fascinating stories about the city along the way. One particularly thoughtful gesture was the handwritten congratulations letter she gave us for our wedding, which was such a lovely surprise and made the experience even more personal. We spent two wonderful hours together, and the time flew by. Ama’s warmth, enthusiasm, and genuine care made this one of our favorite experiences in Venice. Thank you, Ama, for helping make our honeymoon so memorable. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Venice!

Our guides, Elizabeth and Claudia, were awesome! Our ride over to Murano Island was fun! Our tour of the glassblowing factory was amazing! The master created stunning work of art before our eyes! Each piece is one of a kind. I highly recommend this tour.

It was so special. Imagine only two other gondolas seen in our time because so many people did not show as there was a light sprinkle of rain. The experience was magical seeing people turning their lights on as the day turned to evening. My wife and I loved all of it.
