Exceptional

Brian_M, May 2026

Fantastic tour with Marco. He was very knowledgeable and had interesting anecdotes about the artwork and spoke with infectious enthusiasm. Probably the best guide for this type of tour we have ever had.

Response from Host, June 2026

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We are delighted to hear that you had such a fantastic experience with Marco. His passion for art, deep knowledge, and ability to bring the stories behind the artwork to life are qualities we truly value, so it's especially rewarding to hear that his enthusiasm made such a positive impression on your tour. Knowing that you consider him one of the best guides you have ever had is incredibly meaningful, and we will be sure to share your kind words with him. Thank you again for taking the time to leave this review. We hope to welcome you on another tour in the future!

A Special Tour

Knowledgeable guide ….I’m unable to remember his name. From Venice, he knew his history of art, culture & architecture. The tour we took is not often chosen, so it felt special.
