We took the Brunetti tour with Valerio last week. Valerio was very accomodating in adjusting our start time and meeting location. We had just arrived the previous day and were still getting up to speed. Needless to say, the tour was absolutely fascinating. We learned some very interesting facts about Venice as well as about Donna Leon and Brunetti's Venice. A most enjoyable 2 hours. If your a fan of Brunetti and visiting Venice, definetly look at this tour. It was the highlight of our trip. Aside form the tour, Valerio was extreemly helpful in giving us some recommedations for restaurants and some things to do in Venice and Murano. We visited some areas that were definetely not on the normal tourist track, which made the tour that much more interesting. Thanks Valerio!
We have just returned from our trip to Florence and wanted to say thank you to Dina for our tour of the artisans of Florence. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with her and it was interesting to see both some old techniques and also an innovative new approach keeping the artisan tradition alive. In addition, what we saw on our tour gave us a deeper appreciation of what we saw subsequently in the Medici Chapel the following day. Our tour also involved cappuccino, panettone and ice cream which is always a good formula! We would have no hesitation in recommending Dina if you want to find out more about the renaissance city.
Communication with Emanuele was great, but unfortunately he had a conflict and we couldn't meet at the other times he was available. He found Camilla as a replacement. She was very knowledgeable and a local Venetian. We got to see the Grand Canal, Murano, & Burano. Excellent experience.
Emanuele was friendly, knowledgable and energetic. He catered our tour to our time, interests and ability to tolerate the 96 degree heat. We circumvented the area and saw some of Venice, Murano and Burano during our 6 hour tour. He chose the perfect lunch spot to accommodate our mixed age group. Well done, Emanuele. We highly recommend him!
