Wonderful and friendly

Enrico B is so passionate and knowledgeable about Venice. His art background was slightly wasted on us but he gave us an insight as to what it was like growing up in Venice and also tailored the tour to accommodate walking abilities. If you’re interested in the arts ask for him but even if you’re not, you won’t be disappointed

Amazing tour

The tour with Orsula took us to unnoticed and at the same time enchanting places of Venice, even away from the tourist streams. Authentic, personable, enriching! Highly recommended! Thank you so much!

Marialaura is a knowledgable, kind, and patient guide!

Only amazing things to say about Marialaura. She knows both Venice's geography and history very intimately. She is a pleasure to be around, and we learned so much about the beautiful city. We hope to return!
