Pamela was a very knowledgeable guide. We were able to learn so much more having her as a guide rather than touring the Venetian sites on our own. Having the enjoyable gondola ride as part of the tour enabled us to check off a bucket list item for all eight of us (split between two gondolas).

This tour was great. It was one of the few tours where I thought wow I actually got everything that I paid for instead of thinking it was overpriced. But that was probably because of our great host Pamela. Without her it wouldn’t have been half as good!
