Venice in a day - The woman that guided our tour was very knowledgeable. It was very hot, a lot of walking but was amazing. A lot of history, just beautiful . Not sure the gondola ride was worth it. Very very short and they were not friendly.

Experience of extraordinary gondolas - Very nice, feeling of being in another world on the gondola, to do absolutely. Our Ricardo Guide is very clear, explains everything in French and tells us the life of Venice

Perfect tour when only in Venice for a day! - Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and took her time explaining things in the Basilica. My teenage boys had a great time on the gondola ride!

Could not understand tour guide - The biggest problem was that we could not understand our tour guide. Only could understand about 25% of what she was saying.
