Pamela was our guide and she did an AMAZING job explaining the history of all the sites we visited. She had a great sense of humor, very warm personality, spoke clearly and was easy to follow. While a long day, I remained engaged the entire time. Don’t miss out!!

Our guide was excellent, fun and knowledgeable. My 84 year old Mother was with us and our guide would always try to find a chair for her to sit and take a rest.

Our tour guide was amazing. Well organized, extremely knowledgeable and very pleasant! Also helped with transportation questions during our break time. The gondolier was less than friendly but nothing else negative to say about this tour.

Enjoyed the city very much. The gondola ride was fun but very short. There was a 20 minute guided tour to the gondola. Headphones and device were provided for the walk.
You need to download an app and use your phone if you want a guided tour during the gondola ride. I wasn't able to download it on my phone. My sister and the couple we rode the gondola with couldn't download it either. But it was still worthwhile to experience. There were SO many beautiful, antique- looking boats in the rivers! The ride feels very short and there are many gondolas traveling the canals together. It was pretty pricey but still a good experience overall.

What a great tour! The things we saw were just amazing and Matia was the best guide! So knowledgeable about every little detail. He made the tour worth every penny. Sure it’s a long tour, but when are you coming back to Venice?? You can rest when you die. It was amazing!
