About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- 498keeleyk0 contributionsHighly Recommend!Amazing! I would highly recommend this to anyone in Venice looking to get away from the touristy places and see all the places nobody talks about. Pierangelo was accommodating, very knowledgeable about everything we asked, and a great boat driver. We had such a fun time and it was one of the highlights of our trip!Written 13 October 2024
- louisar6390 contributionsAmazing, Amazing, Amazing!From start to finish, Pierangelo was the perfect host. I found this on booking.com and booked it based on reviews, so if you are visiting Venice, do not hesitate to add this to your itinerary. This personal boat trip is worlds away from the Venice you see, Pierangelo shows you parts of Venice you would never know existed as a tourist and you really feel at one with nature. Super accommodating for our dietary requirements and hit the spot with the freshest mozzerella and sweet tomatoes from the land and a glass or two of Prosecco. We didn’t quite get the weather we hoped for but it was a special experience nonetheless. I would 💯 book this again on a return visit to Venice. Grazie Mille Pierangelo! From Louisa, Michelle, ZenaWritten 16 September 2024
- Trip415810555350 contributionsOne-of-a-kind experience with memories to last a lifetime!My family and I wanted to see beyond what Venice had to offer and this was the perfect answer! Let me first start by saying that the boat owner, Pierangelo, was fantastic, and very responsive to my numerous questions. He even accommodated our request to meet at an alternate location so that it would be more convenient for us. His boat was pristine with a beautiful sheen and fit our family of four nicely but could definitely accommodate more. He was extremely knowledgeable and showed us the other islands that most tourists don't get to see. He provided us with a history of Venice that captivated our children and answered all of our questions. The best part of the tour was when we stopped to watch the sunset, and he poured us a glass of prosecco, accompanied by a homemade platter of fresh, delicious mozzarella and tomatoes! I highly recommend this experience; it was truly one-of-a-kind and will provide you with memories to last a lifetime. Enjoy!Written 22 August 2024
- 716kemm0 contributionsExcellent experience. Highly recommended.One of the best experiences so far for my wife and I. We got to get away from the crowds of Venice on a peaceful, private, romantic boat tour. Our guide, Pierangelo, was most incredible. He catered to us and he treated us like family. I would recommend this activity to everyone if given the chance. You will not be disappointed.Written 19 July 2024

If you want to escape the hustle and bustle of the crowds and relax while enjoying wine and the best view of the sunset in the Venice lagoon, this is the tour for you. Hands down one of the best times during our vacation trip.Written 22 June 2024
- E4475WNmicaelac0 contributionsA break from the busy tourist areasPierangelo was an amazing guide! My family and I were recommended his tour through another experience and we couldn’t have been happier. He took us to a peaceful area of the lagoon away from tourists and crazy city life which provided us much needed relaxation. He was great with conversation and overall we had an amazing time. I would 100% recommend!Written 22 June 2024
- victoriazR8004XZ0 contributionsBest part of our trip!The boat tour was the best part of our Venice trip and much needed after a long walk around the city. Pierangelo made us feel welcome and was ready to answer any questions we had. Seeing other parts of the lagoon was interesting and the sunset was an unforgettable experience! Would recommend to anybody looking for a more personal and relaxed setting.Written 25 August 2023
- swright032350 contributionsGreat tour to start your Venetian adventurePierangelo was wonderful. He met us at a location close to pur AirBnB (even gave us some flexibility with timings). We enjoyed the boat tours around Venice as Pierangelo explained the history and significance of the area. We then cruised through some of the smaller canals at the edge of town before heading back to the Lagoon for an aperitif, some snacks, and gorgeous views. We were enjoying ourselves so much, we lost track of time, and Pierangelo was great getting us back for our water taxi (had to move AirBnBs due to broken ac). We would definitely recommend Pierangelo to everyone visiting Venice. It was the perfect way to start our Venetian adventure.Written 17 July 2023
