What are people saying about Venice

Ethan_D, Nov 2026

A lovely way to spend the day exploring Venice by boat

We started the day by taking a private boat with a small group to the island of murano where we watched master craftsman hand blow glass I fro t of us. Along the way our tour guide Manuela gave us a lesson on the history of Venice, its geography & glass blowing tradition. She then took us to the island of Burano where we were able to eat, drink, relax & enjoy the charming small town. Manuela was an excellent tour guide who took the time to get to know each of us individually, answer all of our questions & give us great recommendations. 10/10 tour, 10/10 tour guide

We had a wonderful time!

We had a wonderful time! Everything is well organized. Our tour guide is knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. The price was affordable. The tour started on time. We got a headset to listen throughout the tour. Got a roughly 45 minutes to stroll through both islands. Highly recommend to book with The Tour Guy company.

Eat Like a Local: Venice 3-Hour Small-Group Food Tasting Tour

Brooke_R, Nov 2026

Book it!

We had the BEST time on this experience. Our guide was Enrica who was the best!!! Soooo knowledgable and easy to understand. Enrica took no time in getting to know everyone and made everyone feel at ease, she is down to earth and up for a laugh. Enrica really tried her best to cater to everyone’s preferences ( so don’t worry if you don’t eat meat). This was a great way to eat like a local and Enrica to the places she goes to which speaks for itself. All of the food and drinks was outstanding. Robbie at the deli stop had earned himself a mention, great and kind guy. We fortunately were paired with three others on our experience whom we all got on so great with and this certainly enhanced the experience, all we done was laugh and Enrica made us feel like part of the family. Would 100% recommend this if you’re in Venice for a short space of time. Next time we’re here we will certainly do this tour again! 100/10!

Day trip to the Dolomites, Cortina and Lake Braies from Venice

Leslie_P, Oct 2026

Stefani and the Dolomites were AMAZING!

Stefania was a true treasure! She shared so much knowledge throughout the entire day! The van was large and immaculate. The first two stops were outstanding - Cortina and Lake Braies. The third stop could definitely be skipped with 30 additional minutes being added to the Cortina stop and easily an additional 30-45 minutes at Lake Braies. We loved Cortina but you feel a bit rushed and Lake Braies is spectacular with options to walk around the lake, a solid hour moderate hike and/or row in boats on the lake. They also have outdoor eating venues with spectacular views. The food service is fast which helps although it is SO beautiful that you really want to enjoy and indulge in lunch, followed by the hike or a boat row. Doing both puts you in a pinch on time. Imagine being at a luxury ski resort for only 90 minutes or so! I believe everyone in our van LOVED the day a well as Stefania. You should know it is VERY mountainous driving with hairpin curves therefore if you are prone at all to car sickness you should prepare for the trip properly. You travel by van (we had a full size luxury Mercedes) which allows Stefania to drive the roads like a regular car - very different than driving by bus motorcoach. This tour is a MUST do without a doubt!

St. Mark's Basilica & Doge's Palace Guided Tour with Gondola Ride

Philip_M, Oct 2026

Just as advertised and worth it!

Our guide was wonderful! The history she told was very interesting and important for a better appreciation of what we saw, especially at the Basilica. The tour of the Palace is longer and be prepared for lots of stairs and standing for a long time, but it was fascinating. The gondola ride was very nice, about 25 minutes through neighborhoods as well as the Grand Canal. There 4-5 people in a gondola so be prepared for that.

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

Don't Miss this Detailed Tour of Doge's Palace and a Visit to St. Mark's while in Venice

Excellent guide, very personable and knowledgeable, native of Venice. She gave a thorough and extremely interesting tour of Doge's Palace, which was fascinating, comprising the bulk of the tour. Following Doge's Palace, we had 20-30 minutes in St. Mark's Basilica with our guide. St. Mark's was beautful and impressive. Just the right amount of time to dedicate to these two key sites while in Venice (2-3 hours). Highly recommend!

Venice in a Day: St Mark's Basilica, Doge's Palace & Gondola Ride

robert_m, Oct 2026

Great too w/ a bit too much Doge

The tour was totally worth it. It covered alot of territory, focusing on St. Mark's Cathedral, Rialto Sq and Bridge, a gondala ride, and Doge's palace. The guide spoke very good english. The gondola ride was well assigned so usually a couple gets to sit in the love seat in the middle. The time in Doge's palace as about 45 minutes longer than it needed to be. The walk around was moderately limited but just getting to/from any tour in Venice pretty much requires the use of water-buses which gives you good views of the Venice shorelines and lots of opportunity to hop-off/hop-on. (Buy a longer pass ticket and its no-muss-no-fuss.
