Great walking tour

Robin_K, Oct 2023

Rita was a great guide. Showed us areas of Venice that we never would have found! She was very knowledgeable and friendly

A great glimpse of life in Venice

John_R, Apr 2023

We were so pleased that we decided to take this tour. Our guide Lara was pleasant, cheerful and so knowledgeable about the history of Venice, and also with a number of stories about present-day life in the city. We learned so much about the major features of Venice but equally enjoyed the quiet areas she showed us, away from the touristy sections, to have a glimpse of authentic life in the city. Highly recommend.
