Daphne_W, Apr 2026

It was a great mix of...

It was a great mix of local food that we would have never come across on our own on such a short amount of time. Anna was a wonderful guide, full of knowledge about the different tastings, history of food and even recommendations for various areas. She was also very kind to take into consideration my mom who had some mobility issues. Would highly recommend this tour and with Anna. Thank you Anna!!

Tour of The Real Hidden Venice

Margaret_W, Apr 2026

A brilliant tour.

An excellent guide, who spoke very good English. Having headsets and microphone was a massive advantage. Gave us all a map, explaining the sestieri, where to eat and where to experience the real Venice. Kept away from the busy areas showing us areas we would never have found. Telling us the history, pointing out points of interest, allowing time for photos.

Great guide!

Very nice experience. Our guide Sandra was very sweet, kind and was explaining everything to the detail but in a way that everyone could understand. Is a little tiring as you need to stand for two hours but I recommended it to anyone that wishes to explore the Palace and the Basilica.

Amazing personal tour of Venice

We had an absolutely delightful tour with our guide Fari!!! Honestly can't recommend this tour enough. It was so nice to have a personal guide in a crowded city like Venice.

Fun way to eat your way around Venice

Our tour was a great way to try foods that we would not have on our own. Our tour guide, Chantelle adjusted the pace to meet the needs of the group. There were multiple options at each stop and it was fun to try new foods that were well explained by Chantelle. The owners of each stop were friendly and welcoming. You could purchase cocktails at many of the stops.

Best Of Venice: Saint Mark's Basilica, Doges Palace with Guide and Gondola Ride

david_j, Apr 2026

Beautiful tour!! Filipe...

Beautiful tour!! Filipe was our guide, and was highly informative and friendly. The palace is incredible, with breathtaking gold details, we also loved experiencing the dungeons, and Filipe left time for us to stop for a snack and bathroom break with great recommendations prior to heading over to St Marks Basilica, which had beautiful mosaic detailing. The tour ended with a gondola ride wish is also a non-negotiable experience in Venice! Highly recommend this tour, we brought our toddler and he had no issues despite its 3.5 hour run time, as there was ample time for him to run around in the square and open areas of the palace.

Venice: St.Mark's Basilica & Doge's Palace Tour with Tickets

William_B, Apr 2026

Amazing Tour!!!!

My wife and I took our first visit to Italy and booked this tour to avoid the lines of Easter weekend. It worked! Our guide “Alexa” was phenomenal. It was like having a history professor explain the origins of the Doge and the details of the paintings. Her knowledge of the St Mark’s Basilica dove into the details of each mosaic. Whether you are Catholic or Protestant, you will appreciate Alexa’s knowledge of the Christian faith and her passion for explaining the why behind each tile mosaic.

The Essence of Venice in a Stress Free Small group Walking Tour

Sophie_V, Mar 2026

Wonderful 2 hours

Our walking tour was absolutely brilliant—Alice was amazing. She gave us a unique perspective on two sides of Venice: the modern city and how locals navigate everyday life, as well as the grandeur of the 16th-century capital of the Venetian Republic. The tour was fun, educational, and definitely not boring! I would happily come back again. As a local, Alice also gave us plenty of great advice on where to go and where to eat, and her recommendations were excellent. As an art historian, I especially appreciated her insights, particularly when she pointed out where we could find original paintings by Titian.

This was a two hour walk...

This was a two hour walk through Venice including the major sights like St Marks Sq as well as covering what felt like endless lanes and bridges. It was so interesting to hear Denise's stories of the history and culture of Venice. The tour was a really good introduction to a few days in the city aand we found it very enjoyable.
