Great way to learn
Published on Oct, 2024
This was a great way to learn about the city and its fabulous history. And get into St Mark’s - I cannot remember our tour guides name - but she was lovely, very informed and knowledgeable. Thanks for the great tour.
Knowledgeable and helpful Venetian guide.
Published on Sep, 2024
Our tour guide, Alessandro was great - extremely knowledgeable and interesting. It was fantastic to be taken around by a native Venetian, who showed us all sorts of things we wouldn't have found in our own, as well as taking us round St Mark's basilica. Would definitely recommend.
Great tour if you really want to learn about Venice!
Published on Sep, 2024
Our tour guide Donatella gave us a full tour of Venice in 2 hours! We learned so much that we wouldn’t have been able to figure out on our own even in 2 days. She even set us up with Venice a glass making tour because we mentioned it in a conversation! She made our one day trip a full experience!
Great afternoon
