Federico was a fantastic guide! Not only did he share his great knowledge about the city's history, he also provided excellent recommendations on restaurants and other things to do. My family of four (two young adult daughters) found the experience memorable. Thanks Federico!

Wonderful

Published on Aug, 2023

Federico was an amazing tour guide who customized the tour for the 6 of us in our family. He gave us lots of information about this fascinating city and its beauty in art, architecture, history and society. He encouraged all our questions and never made us feel rushed. We had a wonderful time in Venice and realize there is even more to see, do and eat than we could ever imagine! It was great to tour with a local who could navigate all the alleys and waterways. We hope our paths cross again Federico!

Must do in Venice!

Published on Oct, 2022

Friendly and knowledgeable. What a great way to see Venice! Federico is a true professional and we will definitely recommend him to others.

Unique Storytelling & Engaging Guide

Published on Sep, 2022

Federico really knows Venice. His Secret Venice tour provides an overall history of this magical city. But what sets it apart is the unique tales Federico shares about the alleys and buildings of the San Polo sestiere. Federico is knowledgeable, engaging and a great storyteller. I would highly recommend booking a tour with him. Christopher

Great tour and fun time!

Published on May, 2022

Federico was an excellent guide, taking care to make sure everyone could hear him and get questions answered. We learned a lot, and he made it fun, too. The information was presented clearly, well organized, and with a very intelligent sense of humor.
