Venice Walking Tours

Not sure what the lagoon city was about but think they just meant around the little canals. Well worth the money and saved us a lot of money than turning up on the day to book one with the gondola service :)

The tour was very informative and a small group of about 10 people (other tours we walked past had more than double this). The tour lasted around 100 mins and left dead on time and was easy to find the meeting point. A substantial time was spent at each location and this is a fantastic thing to do at the start of your trip to help you work out other things you would like to do whilst you are in Venice. Main points included: San Marco Square and facts about it, iconic Venetian locations such as world famous book shops, coffee shops and churches, the way in which Venice has sustained itself over the years and the unique techniques that have been used to build and survive. Reason for four stars- at points it was a little hard to hear the tour guide in noisier locations however I would recommend this style of tour rather than a bigger one that would include electronic aids other tours have that end up muffling sound. The tour guide was extremely polite and friendly.

Nice small group and a lot of background knowledge...very interesting and recommended.

Tour guide was a life-long local and extremely knowledgeable about every aspect of Venice. The lunch was outstanding and the private boat ride in the canals was great.

Good, quick overview tour of the Doge Palace, Bridge of Sighs, and Dungeons. We got a late start due to another tour guest being very late.. but guide got everyone on track and off we went. Guide did a good job highlighting the most important spots and stories as well as points of interest quickly and with humor… (it would have been helpful to have read up in advance). Tour is only 1 1/2 hr which is very quick.. Definitely worth the $$ for skip the line access and informative tour.

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!

What a wonderful day with our guide in Murano. We loved the tour of the glass factory and a walk to the amazing church in the island. It was a perfect way to spend the day.

Guide was amazing and the stories and items they had to share were incredible and disturbing!

We absolutely loved our tour guide, Monica! She was so sweet and knowledgeable and made the experience amazing.

The tour was excellent - my only recommendation is to bring water with you. It was hot when we walked, and I mean power walked, for two hours. A great way to see the non-touristy side to the city.

A perfect way to escape the crowds and see the quiet beauty of the Venetian lagoon.

The tour was excellent thanks to the wit and wisdom of Francesca who kept us well informed in a light hearted and amusing manner. I highly recommend this tour and hope you are fortunate enough to have Francesca be your guide. Even with all the information to be had, the tour was never tedious or boring.

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!

Friendly guide, small group therefore full of questions asked outside the executives, the guide knew his visit well and made us discover places "outside the framework" only downside visit ordered in French but done in English because French guide not available...moderately appreciated by one of us who doesn't speak the language at all...

I have been to Venice before. I was amazed at how much I learnt on this guided tour. My guide was Francesco, who was brilliant. We visited the back lanes and off the beaten tracks of the city, which was fabulous. We went over lots of the little bridges, requiring mobility so would suggest other travellers make sure that it is right for them. I paid about 24 euros which was excellent value- it lasted just under 2 hours. I was the only one on the tour and I appreciated them running it. Meeting place was just off St Marks Square which is very central. Would highly recommend.

Very beautiful memory. Friendly guide who does bonuses. The gondolier gave us a full tour. Visit that we highly recommend! Thank you for this great experience

Enjoyable little gondola ride. The guide is very welcoming and the organization is very well thought out.

Very beautiful memory.

This tour was very good, the guide took us through the backstreets, we did not touch any of the busy tourist parts. He explained the history and pointed out different areas Whitchurch you would not generally see. We all really enjoyed this tour, My husband mum and dad

Overall, the tour was a positive experience, mainly due to the excellence of our guide, Rebecca, who was very informative and patient. The Doges Palace part of the tour was wonderful but, unfortunately, my enjoyment of the Basilica tour was negatively affected by the swarms of people and the constant lining up, despite the 'jump the line' aspect of the package.

It was very nice, but very short and we couldn't sit next to each other, which I found very unfortunate

Our guide was very knowledgable of the history of the palace, the basilica and Venice. I learnt quite a bit

Our guide was amazing. She was so informative exactly what we were hoping for. To hear the stories behind the scenes.

Surprisingly, I was the only one who had booked a German-speaking tour... and ended up with a 1:1 tour, actually a great thing, unfortunately I had the impression that the tour guide found it a bit tedious that I took a lot of photos wanted and stopped again and again... for them, of course, it wasn't an "individual tour". I found the quarters great, including the early start time at 9 a.m.
