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.

Maria was very personable and charming. She took us for adventurous food and we had great new experiences! She even followed up with us with names of the foods. She also communicated with our host for the next day so that there was no duplication of experiences. She went above and beyond. She is a good representative for your company.

Benny was WONDERFUL! Had an amazing time seeing the iconic sites, laced with personal touches and insights that were very special and gave a human touch to Venice. My guide was well connected and beloved, where we had interactions with vendors, markets and water taxis, etc. - so I felt like I was a Venetian for a day. Most importantly, I gained the confidence I needed to explore the city with ease, for the remainder of my trip! Thank you so much Benny and City Unscripted!
