What are people saying about Venice

walking tour
It was a nice day in Venice. Our guide took us to many off the beaten path areas. Some shops we were not interested in. It was only the two of us with her.
I mention her body odor only so that she can brush up on that. Since we were her only customers, we walked closely together to hear her, and she had a very bad body odor, making it difficult for us to be near her during tour.

Amazing Venice...
We met for our tour at Saint Mark's Square and there we were introduced to our tour guide Claire.
The tour group was over 20 people, but she asked everyone their name and remarkably remembered all the names without fail every time which was funny.
Claire gave a very detailed and enthusiastic tour of Doge's Palace and then Saint Mark's Basilica and both are amazing.
We were also given tickets to the Museo Correr to visit ourselves after our tour was over and we did so and that museum is also at Saint Mark's Square.
We loved Venice and really enjoyed the tour.
Thanks Claire from the Dublin couple.

Great experience!
A variety of food and wine is offered while walking primarily in the San Polo area. Martina was a fantastic guide, sharing her knowledge of Venetian food and offering tips on how to select good places to eat. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and highly recommend it to others.

Private trip to Murano and Burano
Our tour guide Flavia was great- she was friendly, helpful and shared her own experiences of venice which added depth to the tour. The visit to Murano was good but we only got to see the factory and glass, no time for anything else. However we got longer on Burano which was lovely- she was knowledgeable about the area and showed us where to go. We also had a picture taken at the best spot on the island. I loved the tour, my daughter fell in love with the coloured houses! I enjoyed being in a small group, private boat with no stresses of finding your own way there. Although this could be done we had more of a history of venice and the surrounding islands plus a discount on the glass which you wouldn't get if you went on your own. Highly recommend.

Jada was excellent at...
Jada was excellent at explaining everything along the way from history to architecture to culture etc. She also spoke English very well and the walking pace was very good (not too quick not too slow). My only comments for improvement is that the audio machine/earpieces had trouble connecting to Jada’s microphone if you were standing more than 15 or so feet away, but if you were near then it was fine. I would recommend this tour if you enjoy learning about Venice.

“Joy” our guide was great!
The tour was helpful and insightful about the Doge Palace and she got us there at the right time for the lights to be on at San Marco Basilica (they are not always on and the ceiling is harder to see unlit. Our guide “Joy” was great! She was well educated and helped

Tour of Saint Marco Basilica, and the Dahm Museum
Everybody met on time at our starting destination. Since a lot of people had canceled, they’re only six people in the group so it was a wonderful private little tour. Our tour guide ,Michael, what is fantastic. He was so thorough on his explanations of everything. He told great stories and really knew the history of everything. He was delightful to be around.

Must Do!
We had the best time with Tommaso on our tour! I would highly recommend this to anyone traveling to Venice. You get to experience the real parts of the city with a unique local perspective. Tons of history and Tommaso was so knowledgeable and friendly.

Loved the Food and talks.
Its well worth it. The guide was fun (Ana, loads of commentry and fun to be with) and told us all about the different foods at each stop. Different choices available to suit your tastes. We did 5 stops and one extra with the artichoke man, very interesting watching him work and her telling us about what they make with all the parts. Fish market was amazing to look around. I would say go early on in the day to miss the crowds and the fish market closes at 1pm so if you go later you wont see it on the tour. And definitely would be crazy on a Saturday with the weekend visitors. Lots to see on the tour and finished with superb Gelato. Cant recommend it enough. Interesting stories about the doorway and the bricks you see in the pictures.

Great Tour!
Had a great time being shown around the highlights of Venice with Roberta. She was very pleasant and knowledgeable. Smaller group tour of 15 which was really great not to get lost from the group. The tours of the Doge's palace and St. Marc Basilica we're short but sweet, getting the most important information and nice insights about the art and the history of the monuments. Gondola ride was a nice inclusion in the tour, definetly a different perspective of the city. There was an ample lunch break to be left for you to explore although Roberta gave us a few recommendations and we also went to walk through some of the quieter streets and squares at the end, which was nice to explore a little more! All in all I think this was a really nice snapshot of the highlights of Venice

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.

Great personal feeling tour!
Great walking tour to see different areas of the city starting in the university area, moving through San Paolo, and ending in the most famous San Marco’s square. I took the tour during my first full day and really enjoyed learning more about the history of Venice on the tour. Alice was a fantastic tour guide, and she was friendly, kind, and informative answering all our questions and giving recommendations. We had three people in our group which gave the tour a great personal feel. Highly recommend this tour!

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Venice is completely closed to traffic, but its maze of alleys and canals is almost impenetrable to a first-time visitor. Skip the hassle of following a map and see the A-list sights and quiet neighborhoods far from the tourist crush with a walking tour of Venice. Choose an express tour to get your bearings or a longer half- or full-day tour for a deep dive into the city’s history and culture with a private guide or a small group. For the full Venice experience, explore the city by land and water with a combination walking tour and gondola ride.
