Private Venice Tours

Time respected, gondolier and friendly guide, we had a great time on the water.. Our guide could have taken pictures of us in improvement and exchanged a little less with the gondolier.

My husband and I had an amazing experience on our boat tour through Venice with Emiliano. From start to finish, it felt like a truly personal and memorable way to see the city. Emiliano was a fantastic guide—warm, knowledgeable, and genuinely funny with a great sense of humor. He took us through both the quiet canals and the iconic Grand Canal, pointing out beautiful historic buildings and sharing interesting stories, including who lives where and the history behind many of the landmarks. We also enjoyed delicious wine and snacks during the ride, which made the experience even more special. The boat itself was beautiful—new, clean, very well-kept, and incredibly comfortable. You could tell Emiliano takes pride in what he does, both in how he treats his guests and in how he maintains his boat. We can’t recommend this tour enough. It was a highlight of our trip and the perfect way to experience Venice from the water. We wish Emi the best!

We had an amazing time on this private gondola ride. I was quite nervous at first as I had read a few negative reviews. But our experience was positive and amazing. Our gondolier was friendly, informative and courteous throughout our journey. I would highly recommend this. Great way to avoid the queues!

Excellent service and the guide was very professional. Gondola well prepared for the ride (clean)

Romantic and timeless. Perfect for couples or solo travelers who want to soak up the atmosphere.

Loved it! Good ride and our gondolier provided some historical facts while on gondola!

It was lovely but poured rain Careful of pick pockets as my friend had her phone stolen shortly after getting off

It was an amazing tour with many interisting information about Venice given by the gondoliere. Thanks so much.

We had such an amazing time on our trip. From the moment we stepped on to the boat our guide was fantastic. It was a great history lesson in all thing Venetian and any questions we had were answered. We visited Murano and Burano and our guide ensured we didn’t miss anything at the same time giving us space. Would highly recommend! Thank you so much

Annamaria gave us wonderful insights into Murano. Very exciting, informative and personal. Thanks very much!

Our driver was really nice. What we didn’t like is that one old guy who works there, when we finished the ride asked us in a not nice way (a bit aggressive) to put our tip for the driver in a basket. We wanted to give a tip but they should not talk in that way to their customer.

Must have experience when in Venice! Short and sweet 30 mins ride just for the experience

Great experience! We had a group of 6 people so this tour was a perfect fit for us. Our guide, Kristina, was wonderful and very knowledgeable. Having a hotel pickup and drop off was especially nice.

Fun gondola ride but the guy rowing the gondola did not speak one work and it was advertised as 30 mins was actually 15 mins max very rushed

Great excursion with a top guide!

Wonderful, very skilled guide. He was very informative and made the tour to be the best.

Booking was very easy, Kommunikation bei Phone and E-Mail. Sergio was waiting at the exact time and we entered the nice boat. Sergio told us many interesting things about Venice and we learned a lot about this wonderful place.

Wonderful ride through the canals.

Our guide, Nicola was great - we love learning and felt like we were in a Venice Masterclass with our own young Venetian scholar! He answered every question we had with enthusiasm- even the uninformed ones. It was fantastic! He was also sensitive to our needs- we stepped in for a cup of expresso, just at the right time. There was a lot to like on this tour: the boat tour of the grand canal, walking tour of the Campos, lunch, Murano glass tour. Definitely worth the cost!

We had great time. Thank you for great service
