Story of Venice: Private Tailor-Made Walking Tour & Pickup

Excellent walking tour to explore Venice. Sherry, our guide was very friendly and helpful. She made the tour very enjoyable!!

Stop researching tours and book this one. You’ll thank me later! Our guide Tony was engaging and professional. He clearly is well educated on Venice’s history and presents such information in a way that is easily understandable. He is a phenomenal communicator and makes every attempt to tailor your tour experience. We learned so much about this beautiful city in just a few short hours. We will forever remember our first time in Venice and our experience with Tony.

Our Venice walking tour with Reza was absolutely wonderful. His knowledge, passion, and warm personality made the city come alive. What made the experience especially meaningful was his thoughtful stop at the street dedicated to the Albanians in Venice, sharing its history and creating a personal connection to our heritage. Thank you, Reza, for an unforgettable and truly personalized experience-we highly recommend you to anyone visiting Venice!

We were really glad we did this shortly after arriving in Venice to give us the general lay of the land. As a bonus, Reza gave us lots of wonderful historical information and fun facts. Our only suggestion would be to speak up a bit as only the members of our group right by Reza could hear him.

Great history tour of Venice and relaxing gondola ride.

We had an excellent experience in Venice with our guide Marco. Despite the heavy rain during the entire tour, Marco remained professional, enthusiastic, and incredibly kind. He even lent me his own umbrella for almost the full 2-hour excursion while he stayed completely soaked himself. That level of care and dedication is something we truly appreciated. His explanations were outstanding, very well documented, and enriched with images on his smartphone and material from his portfolio, which made the history and atmosphere of Venice come alive. Even with the terrible weather, he managed to make the tour enjoyable, interesting, and memorable. He told us we were the first ones to do this tour, and honestly, it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. I am writing this review because guides like Marco deserve recognition and support. Good luck, Marco, and thank you again for making our visit to Venice so special!

"Tony"is a tall, good looking, well educated young man possessing comprehensive knowledge and intimate understanding of glorious Venice in context:past; present; and future. Tony was great. He has the ability to adapt the tour to specific interests. Tony has a flexible mind open to any and all questions you may have about Venice and her fascinating history. I recommend: DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY ON A GROUP TOUR. You will love and remember your custom tour with a professional; proficient and pleasant personality--"Tony"--our new best friend! 💕🇮🇹☀️

We enjoyed very the private walking tour. The tour guide was a wonderful young man. He is knowledgeable, polite and professional. This part of the tour was quite interesting. The Gondola ride looks interesting but actually was so so. The route has no special spots. The Gondolier was quiet all the time. It was a good experience.

We cannot say enough about this tour. We learned so much about Venice. We have been all over Italy & experienced at least a dozen tour guides & Tony is, by far, the BEST. He is a superior communicator, possesses extensive knowledge of Venice, both historical & current times and weaved in the most entertaining stories. He had us engaged in everything he said. And if that was not enough, he was incredibly personable. He cared about what we wanted to detrive from the tour and had the ability to key in to our interests. Oh, and a gondola ride is the perfect finishing touch. Icing on the perfect cake!
