Marzia showed us around the Castello district which was a quiet neighbourhood compared to the other more touisty areas. We wandered towards the Arsenale and learned a lot about the city's history and beautiful architecture. She also answered all of our random questions! She is a wonderful guide!

Everything about today just made me happy. The whole experience was just amazing. Our family loved everything about Venice, but this tops the cake. Emanuele is so knowledgeable, passionate, and genuinely kind. This was our first time in this magical city and I hope it’s not our last. Thank you for such a great experience. Hope to see you again one day.

Maria was a fantastic tour guide. We booked a 3 hour tour but our six year old was more tired than expected so Maria changed our route to match the family vibe. She also kept touch during our time in Venice giving us some great restaurants to try in our price range. She answered our questions on the tour including some strange ones, like “ what’s up with all these velvet slippers?”

We had a wonderful 3 hours with Maria. She was so lovely and thoughtful. She provided options for us so we could direct the tour. As well as introducing us to amazing food she showed us unique sights and shared the history of Venice. Following the tour Maria sent us a number of food and must see recommendations to help us make the most of our stay. We highly recommend this experience with Maria.

Marza was great. A rainy morning but she bought the whole area alive. Definitely recomend it! Highly informative and interesting.

Marzia is a wonderful guide. She told us the history of Venice as well as the specifics of the Castello neighborhood. She is funny and charming and we really enjoyed ourselves.

Maria knew all the best places and shared a bunch of recommendations for later. It was fun to see the different parts of Venice through her eyes. She also did a special reservation for a spectacular view of the city.

Lucia was great telling us about the history of the Jewish ghetto and the synagogues . We got to tour 2 synagogues as well as go to an amazing artist's shop. She gave us a great recommendation for lunch. It was the first of 2 tours that day with Lucia and it was wonderful spending the day learning so much from her.

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!
