My guide, Veronica, was lovely and spoke clearly and was interesting. The gondola took a really pretty route, and with only 5 of us one there it was very relaxing. The experience was great and definitely worth what I paid for it! Thanks!!
Friendly and professional service. A good experience and a funny and friendly guide.
Excellent Tour. We enjoyed the time very much
Veronica was amazing. Very clear and understanding.
Was listed as a 15 walking tour with guide to gondola and then 30min gondola ride. Neither happened as such. 3 min crappy ‘virtual reality’ video with goggles that you have to hold and barely 10 rant from the ‘guide’. The gondola ride went for 12min and didn’t cover the path of the full audio guide. A guide that was cutting in and out on 3 different cell phones. Worst tour yet.
Had a great experience. Sara was amazing.
I really enjoyed the bit of history the guide gives you before the gondola ride!
We had an amazing time. The VR experience was very cool. Frederica, our guide, was very informative and kind! Thanks so much. The gondola ride was amazing, and the views were fab😍

We enjoyed the experience, and received good service
