Venice wasn’t built for walking—it was built for sailing.

Over four carefully curated hours, you’ll journey through islands that each tell a different chapter of Venice’s story. From witnessing firsthand the agricultural marvel of Sant’Erasmo (yes, Venice grows its own vegetables) to getting a glimpse of the island where Venice’s most famous are laid to rest, you’ll witness traditions that have survived centuries of change. This isn’t about collecting Instagram moments, though you’ll certainly have them. It’s about understanding Venice as a living, breathing archipelago where real people create extraordinary things, away from the crowds.

if this is your first time in Venice, there are certain things that you need to now. First of all: Venice is a fish ;) In this tour I will tell you everything about the City and why in the first place people wanted to live on the water. I will guide you around the different "Sestieri" and "campi". We will learn a little bit of every aspect of Venice, from how to move around the little streets to where we buy our fish. I will tell you about my life here, as a Venetian mom, the surviving acts that we use today and what was used in the medieval age. What to eat and where, but especially, what to drink it's something that only a real local can tell. Remember, there is so much more than Aperol spritz.

Tanya_H, Apr 2026

This was a fun tour....

This was a fun tour. Being able to see all the fun colored houses. Our guide, Alexia(?), was very knowledgeable and helpful. She was even kind enough to help us get to the closest train station. Watching the glass blowing was very interesting as well.

Tour of The Real Hidden Venice

Neil_H, Apr 2026

Excellent tour

This is a really good way to see the areas of Venice a little away from St Marks quarry and the more touristy areas. Well paced, full of facts about the history of Venice, this was a great way to familiarise ourselves with the area. Michaela our guide was lovely, very friendly and engaging. The trip to Murano was an added bonus as well! Well worth a visit!

Great Venice Food Tour

We had a lovely food tour hosted by our tour guide Carlo. He was engaging and energetic and gave a great sense of the city and the culture. The group size was about 12 so it was perfect to get around the city and take part in some of the local delicacies at small spots that locals visit. We appreciated his guidance on how to experience local Venice while being courteous to local Venetians. This was a great little tour and we really enjoyed it with good food and drink and good company.

Venice Private Walking Tour with a Local

Venice with a Local Guide (A Personal Experience)

This is a unique tour and recommended for travellers that are curious to understand and experience the local history and flavor. The local tour guide offers immersive and in depth cultural knowledge, local customs while uncovering local hidden gems not marketed by the traditional tours and more importantly, it was safe. We asked to be brought to food haunts to experience where locals frequent and the food experience was nothing short of fantastic. In addition we walked through the streets of Venice and given a history of each district we visited including the uniqueness of each of the places we visited and relationship between them. This was never anticipated but added to the understanding on how these districts evolved over time. This was our first time in having a local guide and we have no regrets and only praises for this unique experience as our guide was very articulate, patient and in our opinion experienced and knowledgeable. Our guide Gio was exceptional and made our experience memorable. Before we parted, our local guide introduced local restaurants serving local Venetian food. We tried his recommendation and was not disappointed in both taste and value.

Dolomites & Cortina Small Group Tour from Venice

FrancisAbegail_L, Feb 2026

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!

Valentina!

Our guide Valentina was excellent, which was amazing as she was guiding for the third time that day. We visited so much of Venice that was like a hop on bus so we knew where and how to return to tour the landmarks she pointed out. Because she walked us away from the crowds, we saw charming back streets. A knowledgable guide and memorable experience.

Venice Sightseeing Small Group Walking Tour with a Local Expert

Michelle_H, Oct 2025

Interesting, but do not recommend for children

Julia was an excellent guide. She is a native Venetian. She shared many interesting facts. I appreciate that the tour took a less crowded path. The starting place was odd. The colorful wall with art is really your only indication that you are in the right place. I like history and facts. Very straightforward. I can’t say that I was wowed, but it was of decent value for the price. This is not the tour if you want to be entertained. I think children would be extremely bored.
