Aperitivo veneziano in Laguna

Alessandro’s tour was amazing! What a beautiful way to see Venice and its surrounding islands. The experience almost felt surreal… especially during golden hour. As a solo traveler, I felt included and comfortable. Highly recommend!

Our group of four (two couples) booked this tour for our first night in Venice, and it was a great introduction to the city. Alessandro was prompt and immediately welcoming to our tour group of 7. You won’t be traveling the grand canal on this tour, instead you’ll see more of the Venetian lagoon in general, with plenty of information about the various sites (and their history) to give you ideas about where you’d like to explore during your time in Venice. We added a few things to our plans entirely because of Alessandro’s tour, I would highly recommend booking with him!

It was great experience worth every penny. Our host told us very interesting stories about city. He was very attentive to our questions. It’s great for couples and groups.

Fantastic experirnce! Loved every second .. learned a lot, great group, incredible sites, very much worth it. Easy pick up, perfect amount of time, and worth the cost. Gorgeous views and very enjoyable group of folks - we really connected even with very different backgrounds and languages! The guide was very experienced and really engaging. One of the women in our boat had dreamed if this since she was a child and we were all very moved - it was a touching and deeply human experience.

Alessandro was the absolute best guide. He owns the boat. Took us to amazing non touristy areas of the S Lagoon and even took the time to drop my family at our hotel after! Best thing we did. Alessandro Vidal Venice Tours +39 3406767704 vidalvenicetours@gmail.com

Beautiful boat tour; and an excellent, friendly, and stimulating guide. 1.5-hour itinerant tour that let us discover the less touristy Venice; unknown corners; noble villas with beautiful architecture and large wooded gardens; passing by the Art Biennale; St. Mark's Square, and everything explained in English as well. Top!!!

Super! Alex good boi and great captain!

A wonderful way to experience Venice from a local’s perspective. We had a fantastic time on the A Venetian Aperitif on the Lagoon tour hosted by Alessandro. Our group consisted of four couples, which felt like the perfect size - small enough to get to know everyone while still creating a fun, relaxed atmosphere. Of course, the overall vibe will depend a bit on the other guests, but we were lucky to have a great group. The small open-air boat was one of the highlights of the experience. It allowed us to explore parts of the lagoon and navigate narrow canals that larger tour boats simply can’t access, giving us a much more intimate view of Venice. Alessandro was an excellent host… friendly, knowledgeable, and happy to share local recommendations for sightseeing, restaurants, and places to experience Venice beyond the typical tourist itinerary. It felt less like a tour and more like spending an evening with a local who genuinely loves sharing his city. If you’re looking for a unique, relaxed way to see Venice from the water while picking up great insider tips, we highly recommend this experience.

Great experience in Venice and Allessandro was a great host!

Really friendly, welcoming and relaxed atmosphere. Saw lots of amazing places and heard about the history of them. Perfect size of crowd to feel intimate while cheaper than private. Alessandro is a great skipper. An hour and a half is the perfect length of time I think, to be on the boat. Best for if you are happy to see the quieter and less known parts, which tourists usually would never see, such as abandoned shipyards, old gondola makers, and an introduction to some of the other islands. Thank you, Alessandro. It was such a beautiful, memorable experience.
