Valentina was a perfect host for our inspiring tour of Venice. The walk was a perfect combination of major sights but most importantly also hidden gems. We really got a great opportunity to experience Venice with the best possible local guide. Thank you!

Elena — our amazing, historian Venetian native tour guide — has been truly the most remarkable tour yet —- not only in Venice and the many other TripAdvisor tours we have booked over the years.
We have learned so much about Venice’s history, political and cultural struggles, innovations as well as how it actually was built. Alone if you ever wondered how on earth did Venetians create this magical city on mud and in the water. Elena will teach you.
Her deep historical education and passion, as well as her personal family’s long Venetian participation in restoring old buildings brings extra special insights to you. This tour is worth every penny and you will always remember also her perfect English and her dedication to understand the historic Venetian documents that survived through the ages. You feel after meeting with her leaving a Master Class on Venice’s History and the cultural details of the common man alike.

Elizabeth was fun, engaging, and a “true” Venetian. Well traveled and well educated and has both an outside and inside perspective of Venice. Highly recommend.

Monica is the absolute best!! This was one of our favorite memories from our trip. Monica made us feel like we were old friends. We decided to skip the touristy spots and asked her to take us to her favorite places in the city. She brought us to beautiful gardens, an artist's collective, and an incredible costume shop, where we met the owner and designer. A truly magical experience. I cannot recommend her enough. Book her; you'll be so glad that you did:)

A great trip with Roko. It was pouring with rain but Roko was very thoughtful to avoid us getting wet where possible. He was very knowledgeable about his subject and equally able to answer all the children’s unusual questions too. He was also great with my son with special needs - highly recommended!

Nicoletta’s tour of Venice hi-lights wast first rate. We spent three hours exploring San Marco Balisica and Doge’s palace. Nicoletta’s knowledge of the artwork and history is top shelf. She was able to describe and explain nearly every main piece. Consider hiring a guide, you’ll get more value than you can imagine.

What a great way to start our time in Venice. Nicolette was a wonderful guide! She was so knowledgeable and spoke passionately about her city! My kids (ages 11 and 13) and parents (70s) were all equally engaged! We saw some highlights for sure, but she also showed us places and shared stories we would have never known about otherwise. She also gave us a great dinner recommendation! Would definitely recommend to anyone. Thanks so much Nicoletta!!!
