Venice Day Trip from Lake Garda - Everything ran perfectly, on time, and without any problems whatsoever Our guide was informative and very pleasant, spoke a number of languages fluently and gave us an excellent initial guide round Venice and some good tips for when we headed off on our own.

Venice Day Trip - Bus on time. 1 break stop. Boat to St Mark Sq. Loads and loads of interesting information from the tour guides via an earpiece while seeing the sights. Some time to wonder off alone and gave lunch. Great tour. Would definitely recommend!

Crisp and well organised - Crisp, well organised and thought through. On time. Whilst I have given this a 5 star review. The only slight ‘niggle’ was the ‘selling’ of two ‘cash only’ bolt on’s. Helpful the weather was excellent. Happy to recommend.

A beautiful excursion to Venice all around - We decided on short notice to take this trip to VENICE. Booking was straightforward, and confirmation came immediately. Pickup at the meeting point was punctual, the bus ride was comfortable, and the tour guide Gabriella made the travel time engaging with interesting information and history about Venice. The city tour was informative and interesting. Unfortunately, as always, the stay always seems too short to explore everything. The return trip was also good; we sincerely thank you for this unforgettable beautiful day.

Karen, 🇨🇦 - We did the optional gondola ride and boat tour which were will worth it. Our tour guide, Thomas, was very informative and genuinely enthusiastic. The boat tour gives you a good overview of Venice. Our driver, Claudio, was also excellent. Highly recommend this tour and the optional tours.

Fabulous well organised Venice day trip from Limone - Efficient and on time pick up from said location in Limone with a friendly well organised escort . Three hour coach ride but stopped twice en route for comfort break. Advised that 10 euro pp was required for entry into Venice now on a Fri, sat or Sunday we paid on coach en route to Venice . It was So well organised that when we arrived Venice mainland the boat transfer was waiting to take us straight across to Venice . On arrival in Venice the tax was paid on our behalf and sorted by the tour escort so no hassle at all . The hour walking tour we were given headphones and radios and really informative shown the main sites before then having a couple of hours free time to return to areas already pointed out on the tour ourselves . The Advice given by the guide was informative advising cheaper places to eat etc and if you needed the toilet to pay 1.5 euro to use toilets in Venice but all really useful to know . Guide also arranged the gondola for 90 euros on the coach in advance and although you have to share it cheaper this way and organised and booked so he just showed us the gondola station to be at at a certain time and when we arrived the queue was so long but having had him book it we went straight to the front and got on . He admitted you may be able to do it locally slightly cheaper but tbh it was so well organised it went like clockwork and then he gave us the return meeting point back by the hotel near the boat station amazing ! Boat on time straight back across water to coach and then once again a comfort stop en route back to Limone . Yes it’s a long day but tbh it was wonderful and so well organised , safe driver and there was only 21 people in the group but a 53 seater coach provided so lots of room to spread out which made it more comfortable as well . Claude I think was the driver and the guide I think was called Romeu ?? But fabulous ! Well done we went on 24/4/26 and Venice was scorching hot that made it !

Again and again with you! - Very successful trip. We were very well driven to Venice. The bus driver was the force. The headmistress, too. A one-day trip but it was really worth it.

Very good trip went... - Very good trip went smoothly. There are added activities offered on the coach which must be paid for in cash, so make sure you take plenty if you want to take part.
