It was nice to see the city for the top looking down. There are beautiful veiw. Make sure to wear suitable shoes. Stairs can be slippers. Tour guide was very informative.

Tour guide was sweet but not conversational or engaging. She did not speak loudly enough for all 8 of us to hear. She did share some “fun facts” about Venetian life, past and present, but overall the tour was mostly dull.

This was our first tour in Venice and it was a really great way to see Venice from the rooftops, something you wouldn't normally know how to do. Vanessa was a fabulous guide, and our group really had fun getting to know her and each other as well as developing a true appreciation of Venice's history and food. She said we would have new friends at the end of the tour and she was right!

It was not what I was expecting . 3 rooftops with Prosecco at the very end. However I had a wonderful time and our guide was amazing!! We got to see little touches of the city you would t otherwise notice and why they were important. 10/10 would recommend!

Eliza was an absolutely amazing guide, very friendly, knowledgeable, and fun! We had so much fun on this private tour where she showed us the hidden gems of Venice! We went to several places to snack and finished the tour with Prosecco! We had a great time!!

More of a walking tour than a rooftop tour. The guide was excellent, very knowledgeable.
The view from the rooftop of the conservatoire was fabulous, even though it was windy and raining.
Would recommend this tour

This tour was a highlight of our time in Venice. It gave us the opportunity to explore beautiful buildings and experience views of the city typically not available to tourists. Make it a priority to take the Venice Rooftops Tour!

We had a great time with our hosts! We had a great tour of the city, as well as a great time viewing the city from three roof tops! The highlight was a tour of the Conservatory of Music Benedetto Marcello. It was a open school day, so we were able to see some of the school and hear some beautiful music.

Guide was fabulous, much information and pleasant. The view at tedeschi was wonderful. She took time to interact with us also. Prosecco and location where tour ended was very nice.

It felt like a private tour as it was just my mother, my sister and myself! Alessandro was our guide, ably assisted by Fiorella. Both friendly and charming people who spoke excellent English and who looked after us very well. We were driven in comfort in a large air-conditioned vehicle. In Venice we had time to walk in some quieter areas away from the crowds and we even got in a boat to make a brief crossing. For lunch, we had a wonderful typically Italian three-course meal in a quality restaurant. Afterwards, we were free to have some time to shop and look around on our own around the San Marco square area. A very enjoyable day - thank you!
