Enjoy an exclusive tour of Venice with a private expert guide, and make the most of this incredible city and see all of the highlights. Begin in Saint Mark's Square for a perfect view of Saint Mark’s Basilica and the Doge’s Palace, the private chapel of the dukes of Venice until the 19th century. Get privileged access, and skip the long lines to enter the grand basilica and enjoy up-close views of the golden mosaics. Then skip the lines to the Doge's Palace to travel through 7 centuries of history as you see the palace prisons and court rooms, and stop on the Bridge of Sighs to see the last view of Venice that prisoners saw before they were locked in their cells. Your guide will then give recommendations for lunch, and after a short break continue your tour. Walk to the covered Rialto Bridge and discover the house where Marco Polo once lived. Go to the Renaissance church of the Campo Santa Maria Formosa, where you will end your perfect day true Venetian style in a private gondola ride

Absolutely magical day with Roberta in Venice. She is so passionate about her city, but also concerned that we were getting to see everything that we wanted to see. She was full of information and history and never tired of our questions. Highly recommend this tour!

It's Venice, what's not to love? But Roberta, our guide, made it extra special. She was full of history and passion for her city. She also made sure to confirm that we were seeing all of the things that we wanted to see. She delivered us to the Gondola dock with one minute to spare. What an expert! Highly recommend this tour.

Thought Mattie was very good. My complaint is that the weather was horrible. , tide was up and could not take the Gondola ride which was part of the trip. I thought I would get a credit for this but I did not. If you want me to use you again I would expect a credit for the part of the trip we could not go on. If that is done I will increase my rating to 5

First, Nico the guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. As a Venice native, he's passionate about his City and its history. We learned a lot and it was enjoyable. I guess I should have read the fine print, because we thought it was a full day for the money we were paying, but it turned out to be only a half day, really. So, I would change the name of the tour. It's not really Venice in a day. So, the 4 hours were full of good information and fascinating history. One of the coolest churches we've ever seen. The Gondola ride was supposed to be 30 minutes. This guy was passing other gondolas to get us around and back to the dock. Maybe 23 minutes. That was a let down, too. We weren't in a rush, and while I understand our gondolier isn't obligated to sing or talk to us, he seemed interested only in getting back to the dock to pick up the next fare.

Our guide was truly knowledgeable about Venice and its history. Very much enjoyed the customized tour that allowed us to see all the high points of Venice, and avoid the crowds. Skip the line tickets and tour of Doge palace and canal tour by Gondola were the highlights of our tour. Highly recommend this tour.
