    The guide was excellent. He gave us lots of information about the history of Venice. My only gripe would be to say he walked very fast and some people struggled to keep up with his. Perhaps this needs to be taken into account. The Gondola ride was beautiful. Very relaxing but it could have been even better had the Gondolier even so much as made eye contact with us. Had he been just a little bit cordial we would have given him a tip. That is not the fault of the guide or the tour company so overall this was a good activity

    La experiencia del tour fue excelente, pero lo que realmente marcó la diferencia fue la atención que recibimos de Aurora. Por un retraso en nuestro vuelo, llegamos tarde a la actividad que teníamos reservada y pensamos que ya no podríamos participar. Sin embargo, Aurora nos recibió con una enorme amabilidad y se tomó el tiempo de ayudarnos a conseguir un lugar en el siguiente grupo, aunque no era el que correspondía a nuestro horario original. Su actitud fue sumamente atenta, cálida y resolutiva. En un momento de bastante estrés para nosotros, su forma de tratarnos nos dio mucha tranquilidad y nos hizo sentir cuidados. Gracias a su gestión pudimos disfrutar del tour y no perdernos la experiencia. Es muy valioso encontrar personas como Aurora, que no solo hacen bien su trabajo, sino que lo hacen con vocación y cariño. ¡Un agradecimiento enorme para ella!

    It was well. The gondola man was not really social with us and the gondola ride ended up being only a 20 min one.

    Our tour guide Beatrice was very friendly. We asked for the tour in French and she was able to speak to us very fluently. she had good knowledge about the history of Venice and the gondola. The gondola ride was very fun and finished with a VR presentation of Venice. The gondolier’s were helpful for people that need help coming in and exiting the gondola! 100% recommend!
