Best way to immerse in Venice history!
Elena is a great storyteller and extremely engaging.
Plus, she is a native with a worldview having left the city before. So she understands the nuances of being a Venetian and looking at the city through the lens of a tourist!
She was also very informative, we had a great time, in spite of the December winter cold. She was also good with answering questions from my tween/ teenager and made sure we were comfortable whilst walking.
I had studied The Merchant of Venice for literature - and Elena gave me the 101 on the key places mentioned in the book and even took us on a Traghetto boat ride!
Highly recommend if you're looking to discover more about Venice through the eyes of a Venetian.
