Tullia was excellent and really enjoyable to walk and talk with in Venice She is a wonderful tour guide and we would definitely use LivTours again
Excellent tour guide. Enjoyed the Murano and Burano tour
Excellent tour of the area and gondola ride throught the canals
Lara did an outstanding job, truly got to know Venice much more than anticipated
We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Romy exploring the city highlights. Romy is extremely knowledgeable, very pleasant and answered all of our questions. You will be lucky to have Romy for your guide
Romy was knowledgeable and mixed in her personal experiences growing up in the city. Her insights changed our perspective of Venice as a tourist town to a place where many people have deep roots. She even gave us a fantastic dinner recommendation.
Our tour today will Daria was fabulous. She was so nice and engaging that it made us feel like family. She has enlightened us on Venetian culture and life in and around the region. Great job. The tour was The Market & Ciccherri Food and Wine Tour.
Favorite Venice experience, highly recommend!
Our time in Venice was very limited (two days) so we wanted to prioritize getting to know and understand the city and her stories. The tour guided by Lorenzo was the perfect choice for us—he quickly assessed our interests and proceeded to give us a 90 minute guided tour of the city, both the stories behind the well known sites (like the Rialto bridge) as well as taking us into tiny alleyways and passages to get a feel for the Venezia that few tourists ever see. After 90 minutes learning the history, the legends, and the present day realities of the city, we stepped into a gondola that took us so quietly through the canals as the sunset faded and the lights of Venice turned on around us. This tour was a splurge for us, but there is only one Queen in Venice and this is the perfect guide to introduce you. I would do do this again in a heartbeat and recommend it to anyone coming to visit who wants to step outside the main tourist routes and try being Venetian for an evening.
