A lovely half day trip (4 hours) just enough time on the islands (just over an hour on each) to get some great photos and browse the shops. Glad we took this trip to visit such beautiful peaceful islands and get out of the city for a bit.

The gondola was amazing …. We met the guide who led us all the way to pick up the gondola … was very well organised … we went all down the side canals and ended up on the grand canal … which was amazing … would thoroughly recommend it … well worth the money.

Bcp liked we were only 5. Franscesco the guide was very interesting and nice. The tour is English. A QR code giving access to an app is given for comments in French. We did not use the app for the visit but for the rest of the stay because you have explanations of the main monuments of Venice including those that we do not see during the tour.

Manlio Z.
It was a very good tour and our guide was very interesting and informative. The speaker system was effective and I could understand everything that was said (I have a slight hearing problem) I enjoyed the tour. I think it is mis-named as it wasn't really mysterious. Perhaps it would be better titled 'Venice beneath the surface,' or something like that. But worth doing, definitely.

Beautiful visits with an interesting guide. However, as 2.5 hours of sightseeing approached, she picked up the pace and we quickly passed rooms of the Doge's Palace. A little frustrating.
