One of the best guides we had on our trip - Nadia was an amazing tour guide. She took us to places in Venice we never would have gone to or found. She had great knowledge of the history of Venice. There was not a question she could not answer. At the end of our tour, she helped us negotiate a water taxi for the next day to get to the Venice airport. We never could have done that ourselves. She would not take no for an answer from the taxi guys.

Wonderful tour of Venice with Nadia - We had a wonderful tour with Nadia! We appreciated her grasp of Venetian history and love of her city. Nadia took us to small out of the way places that were a special treat and you always knew she was there for just us during this time. The included private water tour was truly excellent. The captain is a total pro and we found ourselves winding through some of the smaller canals I never would have imagined our very comfortable boat could navigate. A wonderful afternoon - and we did feel a little like Venetians by the end.

Amazing, personalized in-depth tour of Venice - Nadia, the guide, is absolutely fabulous. She started our tour with the history of Venice, which was very helpful. She walked us around the back streets of the city and taught us things I’m sure other tourists never learn. The boat ride was terrific as well. Would highly recommend this for a small group- we had just our family of 5 and it was perfect.

Great afternoon with Nadia! - We spent a wonderful afternoon with Nadia. She took us off the beaten path and shared her deep knowledge of Venice and its history with us and our children. The pacing was great and she was kind enough to treat us all to gelato! We learned a lot about Venice that we never would have known on our own. Nadia’s sense of pride for her hometown of Venice really came through and we appreciated her passion for her city! The private water taxi at the end was amazing - a truly special experience. We would highly recommend Nadia to anyone visiting Venice. Baci baci!

Unique experience - Loved all the insights and little details of Venetian life, history and architecture that were explained clearly and with a warm sense of humour. Was wonderful to see Venice through the eyes of a local and not as a tourist, and it really does seem like Nadia knows everyone!
