Great tour to see so much of Venice in a day. Our tour guide, Alessandro, was very knowledgeable of the history of Venice at every stop. Great tour!

Would definitely recommend staying there for at least a week if you really want to see Venice. DO NOT get caught up in all the main tourist places. Take time to walk around sone of the quieter passageways and canals - you will be amazed at some of the lovely, and cheaper, cafes and restaurants you will find. It will also give you more time to explore the outer islands. Murano is easy to get to, about 30/45 mins depending on where you board the waterbus, but the others can take up to and hour. We are going back as we only had a couple of nights there at the end of our cruise and feel we still missed out on so much.

The guide was very knowledgeable and engaging throughout the day. Although our visit to Venice was quick, it felt as though we saw many of the highlights and gave us good ideas on what to spend more time on our own. The downside was the company’s photo/videographer that was using our tour to shoot a promotion. When I declined to participate, her solution was to stay at the back of the tour away from the guide which made it difficult to see what he was talking about.

It was good but our time was not managed well. We spent a lot of time or trivial details and felt rushed during main events. Our tour did not include seeing the remains of St. Mark in the Basilica. Overall it was good but for the time and money spent those are improvements that I would have liked to see.

Great day with guide Nico - who was friendly and well-informed. Fantastic introduction to the city. Thoroughly enjoyed and would highly recommend.

Super fun trip but too short! Our guide, Alice, was incredible informative and helpful but the time on each island is woefully short. We really needed at least 30-45 mins more on each island to make the trip worthwhile.

This was an amazing tour and totally worth the cost for how you cover all of Venice in a day. Our tour guide, Francesca, made everything come to life with wonderful story telling, helping us visualize the drama of historical facts mixed in with local tales. The history of the Gondolas was fascinating with a relaxing Gondola ride as a break during the morning was perfect. The detailed walk through of every room in the Doge’s palace and the details pointed out with all the architectural intricacies was also very interesting. Francesca especially was super attentive to everybody’s needs while keeping children and older attendees safe and engaged. In general, a wonderful day absorbing the beauty and history of Venice. Only note is to come prepared with good walking shoes. Francesca built in a good amount of breaks but this is a long day of walking. All in all, highly recommend this tour!

How did Rialto market get started? Well, the two districts San Palo and San Marco made up the original structures of Venice, which should place Rialto back to the 4th century. However, the internet seems to place it in more like the 9th century. “The Roman Empire's transportation network of roads benefitted the small farmers by opening up access to local and regional markets in towns and trade centers”, eventually leading to the creation of Rialto Market.

This is a great way to see Venice for the first time. Our guide Alessandro was great, experienced and if you are in to art and history he is your guy!

Alesaandro T was a wonderful guide. We had the most brilliant day. The guide was informative and engaging - lots of humour and we learned so much. The tour was a really good length with opportunities for breaks. The audio connection was really helpful. With a short time in Venice, this was the perfect day. Thank you!

The tour allowed us to see the core of Venice the guide, was very knowledgeable and professional. Great quick tour if you have limited time in Venice.

The guide very knowledgeable and friendly. Gondola ride was awesome and boat operator told us useful information. Recommend this tour.

This trip was supposed to be the highlight of our trip to Venice-instead it was a disaster. I have no trouble walking but the combination of cold, damp temperatures in the prison and many, many steps caused my knee to ache. If you have any knee issues this tour is NOT recommended! I really wanted to see St Marks Basilica but there was a 45 min wait between tours. If there was less time between the tours I probably would have stayed as the second part of the tour had less steps. Maybe at another time of year the tour wouldn’t be so bad, but for us it was a total waste of money!

Valentina was our tour guide and she was amazing. She was very passionate and knowledgeable. We would absolutely book another tour with her. The tour was definitely worth it.

Super educational we had a fantastic tour guide a lady with blonde hair I forgot her name. Im only rating this 3 because me and my mum had to stop the tour from how hot it was. It was way too fast paced for us . We did enjoy the gondola ride and we learned so much. If you are into educational fast paced tours this is the one for you !
