Our tour guide Andrea was wonderful. He helped us learn about Venice's rich history and pointed out things it was helpful for us to know for exploring on our own the other days we were there. The gondola ride at the end was a real treat as well. A lot of information packed into the time we had together. Would highly recommend.

Experience to be recommended for those who want to wander around the city and learn many curiosities at the same time thanks to the presence of a guide. Right price/quality experience! Very kind and cordial. The only flaw: I booked the tour in Italian and during the tour the guide explained things in two languages: Italian/English. A lot of time is wasted that could be invested in more exhaustive questions or explanations.

Walking tour was excellent. Guide spoke very good English, and was enthusiastic and informative. Walking tour was approx 1 hr 15 minutes long and got to see and learn about things you would otherwise not know. Would definitely recommend this in addition to just the Gondola ride as the extra cost is quite small.
