Venice insider tour - A Must!! - Nadia was amazing! So fun, so interesting! She let us in know the fun facts you would only learn from a 6th generation Venetian! We had a great tour around town (skipping the crowded public stops) and on to a great grand canal tour via private water taxi! She did help us get fabulous family photos to forever remember our experience. Did I mention, she also treated us to a coffee and pastry, walked us right in to a local pizza joint that had a line out the door that we wanted to visit after our tour? Everyone around town knew Nadia, she is a local legend! She made our Venice trip!

2 days in Venice - A really lovely tour! We visited a lot of interesting places and discovered hiden details that a "common tourist" doesn't see. A lot of information about history, cuture and the origins of many common words like Ciao, taxi. Nadia is a really knowledgeable, human and passionate about things she talks about. I recommend her tours to everybody!
