Fun tour of the grand canal. Our tour guide Sandro was engaged the whole trip and pointed out all the historical buildings we were passing on the way. A great way to see a brief introduction to Venice.

The tour guide is was very professional. There were 7 other passengers on the boat. The boat was wooden and beautiful on the inside. For the price it was perfect and not too crowded.
