5 star, we had so much fun

Alessandro was fantastic, he took the time to explain the history behind Venice. He had great visual aids in his binder 2 to help show the history. He was enthusiastic about the culture in Venice. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
Walking with Alessandro
ValnAlontour, 15-05-2022
A friend of ours recommended Alessandro and we weren’t disappointed! If you want to avoid the queues, venture beyond the “top 10 places to see’, skip the ‘No Entry’ chains to climb towers with stunning views, discover secluded gardens, meet the locals, dine in delicious non-ripoff tavernas, and be treated to an exclusively personal service, then Alessandro is the Venetian guide for you. 

Local-born, enthusiastic and knowledgeable, and like Venice itself - sweet and salty in equal measures - Alessandro will build your tour to your specific preferences and go at your own pace.

Sure you could opt to wander around this beautiful city on your own with no more than a guide book, but if you want to go beneath the surface, see the real Venice and and not waste time wandering in the wrong direction, it’s worth paying a little extra for personal service like this!
Una bella giornata a Venezia

Molto professionale gentile e simpatico e fantastico con i bambini, ha aiutato anche a trovare una buona sistemazione a Venezia, da consigliare come guida locale nativa
Wunderbare Tour mit hervorragendem Guide

Es war ein fantastischer Abend und eine Freude diese Tour mit Alessandro durchführen zu können.
Alessandro hat die historischen Gegebenheiten sehr gut erklärt und ist auf alle Fragen der Gruppe eingegangen. Ebenfalls ist man mit ihm auch abseits der normalen Touristenrouten gegangen.

Jeder der nach Venedig kommt, sollte eine Tour mit ihm machen.
Tour interessante
