We were one if the 1st groups into the museum and had a wonderful, self-titled geek guide, Elaine, who was very knowledgeable and more passionate about her job than anyone would think possible. I am definitely glad we did this tour. It was well worth the money, despite the heat wave that made it challenging at times.”

A $29 morning walk through Venice’s calli and squares, with headsets and outside-only sights, including doge burial churches and St Mark’s area.

“The tour was good and interesting. Just a couple of minor suggestions to improve service. At the meeting point it was quite hard to locate the guide. There are many people walking around and a small flag on a stick isn't enough to distinguish one tour operator from another in the large crowds. I suggest a bright distinctive uniform with the Tour Operators name on it. A significantly large flag and/or sandwich board with the tour name on it. Also when moving from one point to another there were dead spots in the commentary. I'd suggest a few more stories to fill in the quiet.”

“The boat was late. We took a small boat to a bigger once which is not mentioned anywhere in the trip details. The group didn't even fit in the boat and many were stuck standing. A few people were left on the dock. The tour guide was impossible to understand and was turning off the microphone mid-sentence to take phone calls and puff her vape. The group was HUGE at least 50 people - not the 15 they promise. BOOK WITH ANYBODY ELSE!!!!!!! THIS TOUR WAS HORRIBLE”
