Great tour experience - Valentina was really good at leading the tour, and helpful with questions. The tour went by so fast but we covered a lot of ground, the weather was not the best however Valentina was very thoughtful and caring in the process. Definitely recommend it if you are first time in Venice.

Good introduction to Vicenza - We wanted to have an introduction to Vicenza on the first day of our 4-day stay there. We got exactly that, with a quick look at the main architectural landmarks, and as a bonus: a friendly guide (Valentina).
