Always fun to learn about new areas. Not as much factual information about Venice as we would have liked and the sound quality of the listening device was the greatest.

Great walking tour of less known places in Venice filled with lots of interesting history… and our guide Valentina was wonderful and knowledgeable. And the gondola ride was very fun for my kids!

We had an amazing time at the tour. The tour guide took us to places we would probably never explore if we would go on our own. The gondola ride was even better! We had so much fun and it is definitely a must to do while in Venice!

A really worthwhile tour to see some of the more unusual streets and passageways of Venice. Francesco was an engaging speaker and provided a lot of useful information, he made the walk a real experience. Two hours was just right and included a brief virtual reality look at the history of Venice in the display to the side of the company office. Would recommend this to anyone wanting to see Venice away from the main sites and tourist places.

Learn something new everyday! Make each day count! Even though it rained, I mean poured we still took a ride in the Gondola. I felt bad for our guide who had to steer us in the storm. I’m grateful he took us, we still had a great time!

Our guide was very good and did show us a lot of neat spots. We had never been to Venice before and I think would have enjoyed a tour of the main spots more for our first trip. I would suggest this if you’ve already seen many of the sights in Venice.

Francesco was an amazing guide. We had so much fun with him.
To start we had a short time travel with virtual reality. Pretty cool.
The Gondola ride I had after was bit chaotic. No real structure, rushed through. I don’t think it’s mainly their fault because they offer three different types of tours that cross each other, but stil doesn’t feel good.
I would reccomend to just do the tour and book the gondola separate.

Not what we were expecting. Wanted to get on the gondola and had to walk for 10-15 minutes listening to the guide in 3 different languages. Was a waste of time. We wanted to have a guide who spoke our language, a gondola ride and the other issue was that it was far from the train station and location very difficult to time.

We took this tour with Franesco(sp?) as our guide. The walking part of the tour started with a short visit to the small museum located next to the tour groups office. There we did a short VR tour of the beginnings of Venice. From there Francesco took us on about a 2 hr walk over the island. He explained many of the sights and gave us the historical significance of them. The gondola ride was a shared ride with another couple. It was neat to see the City from the canals for an 1/2 hr.

We did have a nice time however it would have been better if the mic worked with the tour guide we missed half of what she said because of loose connection.
