Great experience---strongly recommend
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.

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.
