Latest reviews from our guests

    Mary was very attentive to the things that we wanted to see. It rained during our entire tour, and although she apologized, there’s absolutely nothing she could’ve done about the rain. Ideally, we would’ve loved a sunny day, but Mary took us into some buildings to get warm order coffee and tell us more about the City. She made it a very memorable experience for us.

    We had a great morning with Maria. We scripted together an itinerary that met our mobility limitations and was fun and informative. Maria is very competent and professional and we learned a lot and enjoyed our time with her. Highly recommend.

    We had a lovely tour with Benedetta -- she took our requests seriously and put together a tour that perfectly aligned with our preferences. She obviously knows Venice well, having grown up here. She also struck the right balance of giving us lots of interesting information but not overwhelming us with commentary. We would recommend her highly.
