A lot of people for the tour, but I do have to say. For as many people in our tour group and the other one that meet at the same time. It was well organized and a pleasant experience.

Tour guide was knowledgeable and passionate about the islands. A few hours isn't enough to take in everything but its a great start.

Excellent time spent with our guide. We discovered streets where we had not ventured alone. Very good explanations that allowed us to discover Venice differently. The boat ride was a plus for us as we had only done one before. This walk allowed us to see other points of view because we started from another place but no comment from the guide.
