Description
A masterpiece floating on the Adriatic, Venice tops many a must-visit list. Boarding a private motorboat on the edge of the city, you'll arrive in style at Riva degli Schiavoni, and your guide will lead you to St Mark's Square. Here, you can admire the wonderful St Mark's Basilica and the Doge's Palace next door. Their orient-infused Byzantine Gothic architecture will whet your appetite for more. And there's no better way to explore Venice than with a romantic gondola trip – an optional 30-minute ride (payable locally) is available just after arrival in St Mark's Square. You'll then have free time for exploring this enchanting city, and perhaps to find somewhere to have lunch. If you fancy something really typical, locals love their cicchetti – Venetian tapas. In the afternoon, there's an optional one-hour lagoon trip, (payable locally) accompanied by your guide, or the chance to roam around yourself.

Our trip ti Venice
It's a long day, our guide was Frederick he was very knowledgeable and entertaining 😄. Unfortunately it wasn't a great day for us. We understood it would be busy but we really didnt feel the beauty of the city and it was beautiful. We would recommend the lagoon trip but not the gondola the backstreet offered no view it was smelly and our gondola was so busy shouting at others (no interaction) and they piled us with a young honeymoon couple. This trip took less than 15 mins. 😮💨 but this was our experience. We would like to come back but do our own thing next time. Xxx

Very disappointed
We waited for over 1 hour for the pick up, which failed to turn up. Tui had sub contracted our trip out to another provider, but had failed to contact us to tell us and provide the name and contact details of the new provider. Very poor service. Their reaction was " Do you want us to book you on next weeks tour" as if I could drop everything and be in Lake Garda at any time. A refund has been initiated but this does not make up for missing a trip we had looked forward too.
Operator response
Dear guest, Many thanks for your comments and the time dedicated to write them. Sincerely apologies for the bad experience you had. It rest assured that we will indeed investigate about what happened as this is not our procedure with clients. We always try to improve our services and your feedback really matters to us. Kind regards, Antonella
