Tamara C.
There was a great buzz around the meeting area. We shared our ride which was perfectly fine. It was lovely to float around the sidestreets as opposed to the grand canal which was very crowded making the waters choppy. We loved this!
Leslie
Our tour was good. 5 star to our walking tour guide. derive a star for Gondola, not a word from our Gondola driver/guide. The process for getting our tickets was different than any other tours we have done. Confusing and a snippy gal at the window
Janis
I was hoping to have commentary whilst IN the gondola but our guide Ellen was most excellent while walking around the city. Knowledgeable and professional and fun.
Annette J.
Lovely guide who was very informative. Gondoliers were amazing and made you feel relaxed and comfortable for your ride around the canals. Excellent service highly reccommended
Marcel
Fantastic! To do at least once in a lifetime

My wife dreams to go to VENICE, Hop into a gondola ride. Was she WOW thank you, it was shorted than I expected the ride but all in all worth it again.
Lana
Punctual service, there were four of us and we all got on the same gondola. The gondolier didn't say anything, but in fact it wasn't expected, since it wasn't a private tour with explanation. Overall pleasant.
S
Our gondolier, Michael, was a delight. Very impressed with the smooth manoeuvering of his beautiful gondola. We were also treated to an impromptu song. Definitely recommend!
Howard J.
The only negative note is that the docking area to get off the gondolas is not suitable and absolutely needs to be improved.
Joanne
Straight forward enough to find the meeting place and then a short walk to the gondola well organised in terms of splitting the large group into smaller groups for each gondola so the waiting time was minimal once we arrived at the departure point. The ride itself was great, loved the narrow canals and then the experience of entering the Grand Canal. It was wonderful to go past other gondolas, some with Italian singers on board. The trip definitely made our Venice day trip very special.
Brittany W.
We really appreciated the guide's explanations. The gondola ride was very good, as was the historical presentation of Venice using virtual glasses. We would have liked the Grand Canal tour at the end of the activity to be longer.
Maria W.
Aurora was amazing!! Thank you so much to make our trip great.!
Richard V.
Nice views and smooth ride, but I wish there had been some historical explanation or audio guide.
Henry B.
Amazing - a must in Venice. The location was easy to find and the gondola ride was fantastic. A very friendly Gondolier. We arrived really early as we were in the area but the Gondoliers said it was no problem and they took us there and then.
Hannah A.
Beautiful Gondola ride however not much of a guide & lots of traffic however memorable & special
Mark
Beatrice the guide was very informative and friendly. The gondola trip was excellent. Very relaxing and peaceful
Giocondo T.
It was a real pleasure to do this tour. Francesco the guide is excellent telling good stories, showing details, giving useful information and making the tour interesting for everyone ( there was an 9 years old boy in the group and he was completely integrated) Very interesting to visit the streets with a Venitian approach.

Thomaso was an excellent guide. He was so stressed as 3 of our party were late & he was so apologetic, we ended up leaving after waiting 15 minutes for these people who said they were 5 minutes away. Apart from that, which was down to those people who have no problem making others wait, it was one of our best experiences during our stay. Thomaso was good fun, so knowledgable & shouldn’t do enough for us. We would highly recommend this trip. Our photos are amazing. We met a lovely German family & a great guy from New York on the trip. The Prosecco was really good quality too.

Great tour with our guide Tomaso. Lots of exciting information. Thank you for the wonderful time.
Romeo D.
I had seen a gondola with a singer a few days earlier and was very impressed with the performance. Now I was lucky that exactly this singer sang on our gondola ride. Thank you, it was beautiful
Susan
The walking tour was great and our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. The area was extremely busy as it was Carnevale, but still very enjoyable. Would recommend.
Julio
A short and well-priced tour. It's worth it for those who don't want anything grand, but want to do this must-see tour in the city.
David J.
Very good for the price it is, opposite of maybe the 100€ that ask you the private gongoliers, here you get probably the same experience for not even half the price. Plus in the end you get VR tour of how was Venice back in the days for free, so what can you ask more for? I definitely recommend this tour.
