Worthwhile tour with a very patient guide. - Really worthwhile tour of places close to my hotel. Beautiful chiasas chianti? Breathtaking architecture and views from bridges. Some really interesting historical information backed up with diagrams from Riccardo's tablet e g. Re: Foundations. Very kind, patient person. Went at my pace. Felt totally safe with him. Really helpful on a personal level.

Perfect - The tour was excellent. Roko worked very hard to make the tour special for us. I reached out to Roko because I wanted to get engaged while in Italy, and I wanted to have someone take a photo of the engagement, but I wanted to surprise my soon to be fiancée, and I didn't want to give my camera to someone on the street. I worked with Roko beforehand to tweak our tour so to find a quiet corner of Venice where I could pop the question away from the crowds. The whole thing went off without a hitch. I've been on several tours before, but there is only one guide that I can say that without a doubt saved my marriage. <3 Thank you Roko!!!

Romy was a great guide - Romy was a great guide. She was very knowledgeable about her city and shared that with our private group of six. I would recommend taking a tour with her.

Cool history comes to life with Matteo! - Personalized, friendly, animated and informed experience from a born and raised Venetian. Matteo makes a point of curating the tour based on what we wanted to see and lean. Awesome experience.

Great guide, perfect visit! - My friend and I could not have been happier with the visit. Sarah was knowledgeable, personable and interesting. It was all that a private guided visit could be: she asked us questions, paid excellent attention to our desires and tailored the visit to our wishes. She showed us the important must/sees but also amazing views, little known lively and beautiful neighborhoods, introduced us to talented artisans who gave us a private demonstration of their craft and one of the best restaurants we ate at in Venice.She deserves all the stars on the scale plus some!

Best tour guide in venice - Elena was amazing—our favorite tour guide by far! She was knowledgeable, incredibly nice, and such a pleasure to be around. We learned so much about Venice and its history, and the tour was a highlight of our trip. We highly recommend booking with her and would do so again if we return to Venice!

Enjoyable Walking Tour - Loris was a lovely tour guide. Venice is a very busy place, overrun in many places with tourists. Loris took us on a very interesting walk, visiting places we never would have seen otherwise - in areas where there were no tourists! Highly recommend. Especially at the beginning of your visit to Venice so you can find places to revisit later in your stay.
