Definitely choose the garden experience. Beautiful setting. Take time to enjoy the photo opportunities within the garden and the serenity.
The Venice Carnival is an exceptional experience. Colorful costumes and characters that lend themselves to the game of photos. You can challenge them and pose with them. On the other hand, watch out for the consumptions on Place St Marc. On the terrace an espresso and a tea 29€.....
Dear guest, thanks for the positive feedback about the Royal Gardens & St.Mark Basin View Casanova Aperitif and for choosing us. We are glad to know that everything went well and we hope to see you again in Venice very soon! Best regards, Lucrezia - Venice Tours
I had already heard of the italian cocktail spritz and once in italy i wanted to try it out! A truly savoury experience thanks to the cicchetti side dishes to accompany it, to not forget the stunning place in which they were served to us, just few feets behind St. Mark's Square!
Thanks for your kind review
The staff were not aware of this experience and sent me away several times. After 27 minutes, a manager finally figured out about the experience I had purchased. They would not let us visit the garden or sit in the garden sections as advertised. They also had no idea about the app with the audio tour. They did provide a snack and drink as advertised. I would recommend not going and that this be taken down until the people who work there can be trained how to deliver the services

Grazie per la recensione
We had the tour on Feb 4 during the Carnival opening; our photographer tour leader was so good sharing tricks and information on how to improve our photo skills that now we can go back home with much better shots from our vacation. Thank you!
Thanks for your kind review
The gondola guy didn’t stop talking to another guy on the gondola so I couldn’t even record video with live music.
Dear Guest, we are deeply sorry for your personal comment, please consider that the gondolier is not the guide, but he is like a driver who must take care of his oar. Regards.
The gondola ride was lovely, serenade beautiful and the dinner was charming. However, the tour guide never showed up so we had a terrible time boarding the gondola and understanding any details about the dinner. We were virtually unaccompanied and probably could have had a better experience doing this without a tour.
In the past we have had excellent Viator trips. Unfortunately this one was very disappointing. No guide was there to greet us or guide us to our gondola location. The gondola manager lost our paper confirmation and we had to find our own way to the restaurant after the ride which was very difficult.The food was mediocre at best. Hopefully Vitor will correct the situation.
