Needs Substance!

Our tour guide provided good information about the sights, sharing personal stories like where she grew up, her school, her best friend’s home, and other local details. However, it wasn’t quite what we expected—for the amount of money paid, the tour didn’t deliver the depth we hoped for. Advertised as about 3 hours, we finished in just 2, and it needed a bit more to feel complete.

Venice private walking tour

Our guide Grazilla was wonderful. She provided us with lots of information in a delightful way. She tailored our walking tour to include places we asked about and showed us some of her favorites. Couldn't have asked for a better guide in Venice. Thank you!

Great guide

Sarah was a great guide, she walked us through areas of the city we would not have found on our own including the ghettos and a local bead makers shop. She gave a great recommendation for dinner, and got some nice pictures for us. Thank you!

Not worth the cost

We saw some nice architecture and got a bit of nomenclature re: the streets. The guide was not very talkative although she did answer some questions for us. The review that mentioned the guide who pointed out her house and neighborhood must have had our guide. Not very interesting.

Not what we expected

I loved our guide, Elisa. She showed us around some of the neighborhoods in Venice , as she grew up here. I was expecting to see other areas perhaps more “ touristy” but did not see them. We were disappointed… She told us she was not authorized to tour certain areas, & monuments???? St. Mark’s square was not allowed!! She was knowledgeable & we liked her but for the cost we did not get what we anticipated.

DO NOT BOOK. Blown off with no communication, incorrect meeting instructions.

What a frustrating day. We did not get any prior communications via email, What's App, or text from the Tour company (unlike most other private tours), which should have been a warning sign. We got a little lost and had difficulties finding the meeting point in front of the travel agency since there was almost no signage. I tried calling the phone # on the reservation but nobody answered. We were about 20 minutes late. Nobody was there to meet us when we arrived, so we went into the Travel Agency that runs the tour. We were told there that the Viator meeting place instructions were incorrect, and to walk to the Royal Gardens by Piazza San Marco. When we got there, we were told that the original meeting place by the travel agency was correct, but now it was too late and we were considered no-shows. We were told that we would be refunded due to the incorrect instructions, but over a week later there has been no refund. Now if this was a group tour and we were late, I would understand. But for a PRIVATE tour to not make any attempt to contact us before the tour, or at the tour time since we weren't there is completely unacceptable and unlike any other tours we have ever booked. And then to be told to walked across the island to a different meeting place incorrectly was extra frustrating, especially when we were told we would get a refund which has not happened. Book at your own risk.
