Hi, I’m Benedetta
I’ve lived in Venice for 23 years
I speak English, Spanish, Italian
I am Freelance Tour Guide
I was born about 30 minutes away from Venice, I moved there when I was a teenager and started working in tourism. When I was 22 I decided to leave and I came back when I was 32. I lived in Malaga ( Spain ) for some years, then Florence, then onboard cruise ships, then Malaga again, Berlin, and finally decided to come back to Venice and started my own business - I am a freelance tour leader since 2014 and I wouldn't live anywhere else now, I love my city and my job!

We booked a private tour via City Unscripted.it was worth every penny. Our guide,Benedetta tailored our tour perfectly, based on our answers to the questionnaire the company sent us at the time of booking. Benedetta was on time, friendly and spoke excellent English. She was able to answer all our myriad questions about the city and its history. She was a fount of knowledge and made the experience all the more enjoyable. We always book private tours in cities we have not visited before as you get a much more intimate view of the place and although it is generally a more expensive option, you get your money’s worth.

Loved the pace at which we explored this beautiful city as it was very hot. We enjoyed the stops along the way for delicious refreshments. Also great experiencing the hidden gems and quieter less crowded areas
