An AMAZING tour with a super knowledgeable guide. Our favorite tour of the entire trip. The skip the line access made both the basilica and palace very efficient, and we had a perfect amount of time to take in all the beauty.

Great tour with insights into the city and things to observe about the buildings. Palace and Basilica are two top sites and worth seeing, but the city tour adds a lot to the appreciation and understanding of Venice.

Perfect way to see a lot in 1/2 day. In the early morning we walked Venice with a knowledgable tour guide than went back to the meeting point and had a few min to grab a coffee than we met up with more people for the basilica and palace. So much to see inside but this tour got it all in. Your ticket also includes neighboring museums!

Great tour, just the right length, very knowledgeable guide. We were lucky to only have 6 in the morning part of the tour. It got a little crowded for the second half, but manageable.

The tour itself was very good. But we had troubles with teh meeting place. Therea are two different places mention in the ticket. Be sure to choose the right one. Its not that place direct at the macus place.
So we missed the first tour and had to book a new one at the next day. And we have to pay twice - late we got back the money for the first tour very soon.

Take some snack and something to drink with you, 4 hours walking is not so short.

This was a nice way to see some of the highlights around Venice and St Mark's square. The walking tour was a nice way to start and get a feel for the city. St. Mark's Basilica is amazing and our guide was very knowledgeable. The Dodge's palace is really beautiful and it was cool to learn the history of the palace and walk across the bridge of sighs. This is a faster paced tour in terms of the walking, so make sure you wear good walking shoes. We had a nice time!

Rosanna was great and extremely informative..on our 2nd part of the tour we had another guide whose name was similar to Rosanna and she was just as fabulous!!! Highly recommended to take you off the beaten path and learn about Venice...they were also born and raised in Venice and truly enthusiastic about their birthplace!!
