I have never written a bad review. This is my first. We are very concerned that the tour operator was not at the meeting location at 6:30pm (as booked - confirmed time on our ticket).
We then called the tour operator who told us to go to the gondola starting point, to show our tickets and we can start the tour there. However, the gondola tour operator (Christopher) told us that our tour operator company only does tours until 5:30 pm with them, as later the gondola ride costs $110. So we paid $110, Viator and the gondola operator.
There was also no info on where to pick up our evening walking tour after the gondola ride and the tour operator did not answer the phone after 6:30pm. Please be sure to give us our money back on this sadly fully failed tour on our first night in Venice, which was supposed to be our romantic evening intro to the city. Make sure to avoid this company for your tours…

It was raining when we met for the gondola ride . But, the sky cleared as we walked to the gondolas, and we couldn't have asked for a more beautiful sunset. The ride was peaceful.

The memorable parts of our experience were horrible. Read carefully in the fine lines before booking. You may believe that your gondola sunset cruise is for two, but it’s not! It is a shared gondola ride with another couple that you probably don’t know. There was no spritz or drink given to us at all or offered. we did NOT see any sunsets at all, and in fact, did some of the back waterway canals where there was no sun seen. Huge dissatisfaction! Initial person to meet for the sunset tour was rude and seemed angry because he was there.

So this tour was separated into two parts and there’s like an hour of hour and a half in between, and I do not remember them saying that initially, but anyway, the gondola ride was fun but the guys operating them were chatting together the whole time. I feel like they should’ve been talking to us if anybody. The walking tour guide was very nice, but none of the radios worked, so it was very difficult to hear her. The stories on the walk itself I
do not really feel like was worth the money.

The gondola ride was memorable and fun, even on a rainy evening. It is a short ride but through very quiet canals.
The guides walking tour was not as expected but we did enjoy it. We waited an hour in between the gondola ride for the walking tour to begin. We thought the tour would include more history of the city. It was the ghost tour which had interesting stories and sights. We just wish it had more history or the points in this beautiful city.

The gondola ride was great. The walk was supposed to start at 8:30 pm. I reached the meeting spot at 8:31, and the guide had already left without waiting for even 5 minutes. The company's coordinator called someone a few times, but the opposite party did not extend and help. Eventually, I missed half the experience completely.
Do NOT take this tour. They are inconsiderate and will run off even if you are just a tad late.

A nice trip round the Grand Canal you can't hear much about the descriptions of the buildings though as the back of the boat where we sat was too loud and she spoke in several languages but some good photos to be had

Visite guidée vraiment super, notre guide Daniela est passionnée et passionnante. Elle parle très bien français
Elle aime sa ville et ça se ressent.Elle donne pleins d'informations insolites.
La visite était celle sur le thème des fantômes.(ce qui n'est pas forcément précisé dans la présentation)
Et il y a eu un décalage de 3/4 h dans le tour en gondole.
Le tour en gondole est vraiment quelque chose à faire car c'est très reposant .Dommage que par groupe de 2 ou 3 , on soit obligé de partager la gondole avec d'autres personnes.
