A feast for the eyes - Visit to the 2 Venetian villas scheduled for the half day that we booked, professionalism, punctuality, competent guides, recommended lunch at the partner restaurant, having had more time we would have reached the end of the tour, in Venice, it will be for next time!!!! Absolutely worth the trip.

Excellent trip - Beautiful trip, well organized even if we had to use the bus for the first stage due to problems related to navigation. The work of the two guides was excellent, in particular Silvia's passion and clarity of presentation and involvement; His advice for landing in Venice was also very useful. Lunch proposed by the organization: impeccable. Highly recommended!!

Simply wonderful! - I spent a wonderful day on board this boat, a trip on the Brenta canal spent seeing and visiting villas, one more beautiful than the other. The guide, Silvia, was very good. He explained everything to us in a truly intriguing and never boring way. One of the best days of recent years!

Unique experience - An experience to have at least once in a lifetime. The Venetian landscape is not visited, it is lived. The villas are admired in their most congenial way, from the water. The river that slowly winds before our eyes takes us back to a glorious past, when nature and art were in perfect symbiosis. Silvia's guide was invaluable, as she accompanied us tirelessly throughout the day, demonstrating the expertise of a scholar, even more than that of a tourist guide. Passed with flying colors!

Navigation on the Brenta - The view is very beautiful. You can see everything from another perspective. The three villas are beautiful and well explained, the locks are wonderful! Throughout the journey, the guide illustrated the salient points to us. Excellent.

Very pleasant day - The first hour is uninteresting but you have to get out of Padua. Then the Brenta is lined with Palladian villas, but also quite ordinary houses. This is life and it is charming. Locks and swing bridges. Visit to Villa Pisani and Villa Widman with the excellent guide, who spoke Italian and English (both suited me). As for the lunch break, especially do not book lunch with the boat group (lunch inside, in a dark restaurant, 4 courses to eat in an hour). I had suspected it and had not booked it. I pleasantly had a light lunch, on the terrace, in a very simple trattoria in the village, 3 minutes away. In the afternoon only visit the Malcontenta then not very interesting journey, in the greenery all the same, but what a magnificent arrival towards Venice. All in all, a very nice day, which I recommend. Bring a hat and sunscreen!

Tragedy almost!!! - Maximum negligence in terms of safety. Narrow walkway, without any shelter, without supports, without help from the staff, while climbing onto the bridge, a lady FELL INTO THE WATER and went completely under! If it hadn't been for a brave passenger who pulled her out it would have been a tragedy! I won't add anything else
