We recently spent a few days in Venice in June 2024. We had booked an afternoon with Matteo, and we could not be happier. We had spent a day by ourselves walking around the city main sights, so he adjusted the tour and gave us a whirlwind view of all the smaller neighborhoods of his home city. He is so knowledgeable about the architecture, culture and the art history. Highly recommend.

Nicoletta was an amazing guide. So professional, knowledgeable and passionate about her city. The weather was not ideal, but it all worked out. We spent 2 hours exploring hidden gems off the beaten track before taking a water taxi with Nicoletta to see Venice the best way you should see the city - through the canals! Nicoletta went out of her way to schedule a tour around one of the Murano glass factories. Nicoletta dropped us off ( by water taxi) at the glass factory and arranged for them to get us back to Venice. We finished our afternoon with lunch at a restaurant recommended by Nicoletta. I could not have asked for a better day!

Our guide was very knowledgeable of the art work and subject matter and showed us many insights to the artist work that We never thought of. She lives in this Venice community so she knew a lot of history.

Giada gave us an excellent tour of Venice. She shared a wealth of knowledge about the history of the city as well as many tips on modern aspects of Venice to enjoy. She’s a great storyteller who ensured we went at a pace that was enjoyable and educational for all of us. Thanks to her recommendation we enjoyed one of our best meals in the city. I highly recommend Giada if want to get an insider perspective on Venice away from the crush of the crowds.

Loris provided a fantastic overview of Venice in three hours. We walked almost 20,000 steps with a lot of history and fun facts about the city. Loris was super helpful even before the trip on giving tips where to get delicious lunch / Cicchetti and how to get gondola without dealing with 10,000 tourists. Overall it was an enjoyable day with Loris and I would recommend him as fun, friendly, and accommodating tour guide to anyone.

We booked a private 3 hour tour for a family of 4. I thought I knew quite a bit about Venetian history and culture, but was pleased that Elisabetta informed us of so much more about the former Republic, past and present. She gave us excellent recommendations for ciccheti and dinner. She has a great sense of humor and appreciated our inquisitiveness. After learning that I am a physician, she altered the tour to include the hospital and water ambulances. I highly recommend her.

Roko led five of us, ages 33 to 70, on an absolutely delightful tour of Venice! He is very knowledgeable, answering questions about history, law, art, engineering, food, and the environment in detail and with great patience. He gave us recommendations for restaurants and his favorite gelateria. He was kind. He has a great personality: we felt like a dear old college friend was showing us around his hometown.

I was admittedly a little nervous about scheduling our first tour in Venice only three hours after our arrival at the airport, however everything went like clockwork, and it was an absolute pleasure spending our first hours in the city with Valentina. She was very friendly and very informative, and the three hours just flew by. We saw and learned a lot.

We had an amazing experience with Romy. She is very knowledgeable, professional, and personable. We were able to cover a lot of ground and it relatively short period of time. We saw all the major sites in mass and still had time to sit down for a drink and rest.

I would highly recommend Romy as she is an excellent guide!
