Loris was great! He was very knowledgeable about the city, the local restaurants, and shop owners. He was also very sensitive and mindful of an allergy that we had in our group. He was able to work around that and provided an amazing Venetian experience. Anyone who loves food and drink, in non-touristy settings, this is for you.

After being transferred to 3 different guides and them trying to negotiate a different time to what we requested, we were finally allocated Mina as our guide. And he did not disappoint!! He was incredibly knowledgeable, took us to all the popular tourist points but also took us down roads that were more local with less people. We tried some local food and he showed us where they sell the best Aperol! Thank you so much, Mina, for bringing Venice to life for me and my family!!

Great tour and recommendations
Loris ran a great tour of Venice. We saw some great hidden spots, got good explanations of history and politics, and were able to take some nice coffee, gelato, and Spritz breaks along the way. He was also able to give us some great recommendations for the rest of our time in Venice and Italy.
