Very informative and enjoyable tour - Our guide (Daisy) was fantastic. She was very passionate and knowledgeable about Venice and took us off the touristy track to less crowded streets where we could get a better appreciation for Venetian life. The tour itself started on time and lasted 2 hours. We were given ear-pieces so we could hear Daisy clearly. Highly recommended!

Great Overview of Venice! - Nice small group tour walking around Venice with a local tour guide that lives in Venice. Giulia was wonderful! She had great insight and knowledge of the city’s history and culture. At the end, she gave great recommendations of places to eat lunch, dinner, pastries and of course gelato!! Great tour to do when you first arrive into Venice.

Amazing mazes of Venice - What a great tour to learn about some of the out of the way places and stories of Venice. We were fortunate enough to have a Venetian provide our tour. Hearing about her beloved Venice through a lifetime of experiences and knowledge, added to the beauty of Venice. The mazes of Venice are amazing. One could easily get lost without the benefit of a guide. Thank you to our wonderful guide. Carol P

A Jolly Good Time ! - We enjoyed walking through the quieter areas, the building that is now a hospital was cool, the Rialto bridge and its history , Our guide was knowledgeable and kind , I did not give it a 5 star rating because the price was expensive I wished it was a bit cheaper

Not much to see - Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about Venice and its history. However, it was basically a walk through alleyways and less busy areas of city but didn’t include going into any of the buildings that’s she was describing. Would take a pass
