First Class

David_S, May 2024

Nico was the epitome of Hospitality! His knowledge of both fact and fiction made the trip exciting. He took the best pictures of us for our memories! :)

Private walking tour through Venice

Katelyn_B, Mar 2024

Wonderful walking tour- picked us up at our hotel and showed us through the winding tunnels on Venice. Showed us great places to eat, drink, visit, and ended the tour right at St Marco’s square (with instruction how to get back ha). Loved the private, intimate tour- our guide was easy to understand, funny and never a dull moment.

Above and beyond! Highly recommended!

BONNIE_L, Feb 2024

Nico’s tour of Venice was amazing! He went above and beyond! It was like meeting up with a friend. The entire tour was very personable and he knows Venice very well! He showed us some traditional masters at work and provided recommendations for local Venetian cuisine. The best part was the fish market and St. Mark’s Square! The quick gondola ride was the icing on top! Overall a very thoughtful and inclusive experience!

Venice in a day

Consiglia_F, Dec 2023

Nico was our private tour guide, it was my husband and I only. Nico spoke perfect English. Nico made our day enjoyable and was very informative about Venice. We highly recommend this tour

Highlight of Venice

Kathryn_M, Aug 2022

My husband and two kids went on this tour with Nico. Had a great time-enjoyed learning some of the history of Venice. Especially enjoyed the Jewish quarter and the quieter side of Venice. We’ll work the time and money.

Wonderful insight and experience

Donny_T, May 2022

Nico was a fantastic! Venice is way more than just St Mark’s Square and Nico showed us that. Plus we got to go on a quick gondola ride! Great way to get an overview of the city and learn about the early history of the area. Just know there’s a lot of walking :)

Fun Engaging & Informative

Joy_M, Oct 2021

Jumping on the tronchetta (gondola) with the locals! Lots of unique aspects to Venetian life and history. Nico is a passionate ambassador to his city ❤️

Great walking tour

Indre_S, Sep 2021

Great tour with Nico. Very pleased with his knowledge of local history and walking tour. We had the best places to take pictures and great recommendations for local restaurants and shopping tips. Expected more from a gondola ride that was only 2 minutes across the bridge. Since title of the tour mentioned gondola ride, I was expecting 30 minutes or so on a gondola. Overall, it was a great walking tour with local guide, but I would not call it gondola ride. Thank you!
