Fun walking tour! - This was a fun walking tour of Venice. The streets can be like a maze, so it was helpful to have a guide. Our guide (I forget his name) was very funny and personable. Very dry sense of humor, which I loved. And the gondola tour is fun. It’s something that you kinda just have to do while in Venice.

Must do - Definitely must do as we learnt so much about the history of Venice and got to see snippets of this incredible labyrinthine that only a local would know! Our guide, Fredericka, was wonderful

Really informative guide... - Really informative guide with interesting facts. Small group in a busy environment but helped by the Bluetooth communication. Frederica was knowledgeable and passionate about her city.

We took this tour to see... - We took this tour to see things other than Doge’s Palace and St Mark’s since we would be seeing those on another tour. And that is what the tour was - small backstreets with stops at interesting attractions with informed commentary from our guide. My only complaint is the audio device has poor sound quality which made it hard to understand the guide. It was better to not use it and stand near the guide whenever possible.

Nice tour - The walking tour took us through the city’s charming streets, with fascinating insights into Venice’s history and culture. The gondola ride was the highlight, offering a unique and peaceful way to see the canals. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly, but I wish the tour had included a bit more time for exploring on our own. Overall, it’s a wonderful way to experience the magic of Venice, and I highly recommend it! 4 stars!

Nice , but shared . - Of course the gondola is a must due when in Venice , however the prices are outrageous . So if you don’t mind sharing it with someone this is a good way to have the “ experience “ of it . Short ride but nice and the two ladies that were part of our gondola were nice so it made it a pleasant experience

Worst tour company to book - The scheduling was horrible. We asked if we could do the Gandoli right first but we were told they can’t as we have to do the walking tour which we already did
