Our guide was excellent
Charles_M, 19-12-2022
We loved our guide Lloris— he did a great job and was very engaging and friendly. We have since recommended this tour to family who went to Venice after us and they all agreed it’s great! Tour is a few hours and takes you all over town. Good mix of refined and casual items.
Lovely evening

We had a great time with Alice, listening to her history of Venice and taking us off the beaten path to try all the cicchetti in great places I would be too shy to attempt alone. Its a great way to experience venice being with someone who knows it.
Perfect

Claudia is such a warm and welcoming person. She is full of energy and genuinely wants to show you her city and favorite spots. All of the food was amazing, and while you walk she gives you a history of the city, which is an added bonus. You will not be disappointed with the tour. She also gave us some fantastic restaurant recommendation for after the tour. I would recommend you take the tour on your first day so you orient yourself and get good restaurant recommendations.

Claudia, thank you so very much!
