Murano, Burano and Torcello Half-Day Sightseeing Tour
Venice, Italy
My Rating

The tour was not bad but not amazing. It was cool seeing the islands but the "tour" was information given on the boat and then the rest is up to you to walk around and look around at things. Murano is a drop off at the glass blowing factory. WALK DOWN THE STREET!!!! Everything is way cheaper the farther away you go. Everything in the factory is very very expensive.

Dolomite Mountains Small Group Day Trip from Venice
Venice, Italy
My Rating

This trip was excellent!!! The driver was great, the ride was very smooth. We stopped at numerous spots to take pictures and see the scenery. The restaurant we ate at was excellent as well. This was definitely worth the money and experience. If you are leaving from the island, make sure you go to the right waterbus stop so that you can make it on time.

Venice Walking Tour and Gondola Ride
Venice, Italy
My Rating

This tour was very sloppy. We walked around for a little bit with a huge group that needed 2 microphones and no one could hear anything. The tour guide was nice, but either way the setup was tough with over 30 people walking together through streets 4 feet wide. Very uncomfortable. Gondola ride was nice, about a half hour just to say you went on one.

Florence Cooking Class: Learn How to Make Gelato and Pizza
Florence, Italy
My Rating

This class was excellent and extremely fun. The group of people in the class made it more fun and the chefs were very professional but still could joke around and have a good time. Pizza was great and so was the gelato. I would highly recommend this cooking class for anyone who wants to have a fun night with friends, family or a couple.

Tuscany in One Day Sightseeing Tour
Florence, Italy
My Rating

This tour was awesome! We stopped by numerous locations and got to see sights out of the way of the big cities. I think the best part of the tour was the farm and the lunch we had there. Everything is made on site (200 acre farm) and the food was delicious. All of the spots we stopped at were worth seeing and it was a great tour. I would highly recommend it.

Florence Bike Tour
Florence, Italy
My Rating

This was a great bike tour. The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable about the city. We went on bikes and saw most of the hot spots in the city and had a background on all of them given to us by the tour guide. We also stopped for some nice gelato along the way. Tour was definitely a very fair price and very fun.

Ancient Ostia Small Group Day Trip from Rome
Rome, Italy
My Rating

This was a pretty cool tour. I was very bad at navigating that day so I arrived late and by calling back and forth to Dark Rome tours, I was able to still have the tour. Jo, the tour guide walked from where she was doing the tour to greet me at the front gate and even give me a tour on the way back to the group. This was extremely nice of her since it was my fault we were late. I can only say good things about our experience with the 2 Dark Rome based tours we went on (booked through Viator)

This tour was fantastic. The time goes by faster than expected and the bike ride is not bad at all. We went all over the city and saw great views from all angles. I was very happy with this tour and Bruno, the tour guide was very friendly and fun. He made the ride enjoyable for us.

Pompeii Day Trip from Rome
Rome, Italy
My Rating

This tour was amazing. I booked this tour and expected to really only walk through pompeii a little bit but I got a lot more than that. We had excellent tour guides on the bus (Mike and Massimo). Both had their own style but each was excellent in their way. We had a background tour on the bus, then walked around Pompeii with a tour guide there. Went to get Neapolitan pizza which was fantastic. Both types of pizza were great at the restaurant. Then we drove to Vesuvius and climbed it to the top which was awesome. The view is incredible fro the top of the volcano. On the way back on the bus we also had some more tour from the guides. This tour is expensive, but highly recommended and worth every penny.

Skip the Line: Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel and St Peter's Basilica Half-Day Walking Tour
Rome, Italy
My Rating

This tour was very nice and professionally done. Our tour guide had degrees in history and was very knowledgeable about everything in the vatican and about Rome. This was a pretty cool tour and is worth it just to skip the line of the vatican, which was very long.

Seine River Cruise and Paris Canals Tour
Paris, France
My Rating

Though the guide was very nice and did the tour in english and french, even though there were only about 6 people that spoke english on the tour, the cruise was not that great. We did see some things from the river, but this long tour is spent waiting for the water to drain so we can move on to the next spot. More than half the "tour" was just spent waiting. I was hoping for more, but maybe I misunderstood the tour.

Paris Night Bike Tour
Paris, France
My Rating

This was a very cool bike tour. We went all over the place and saw many things in a short amount of time. The bikes make traveling very convenient around paris and the stops that we made were good ones. Tour guides were mostly younger people but they knew the important things about the stops and gave us info about everything we saw. It was very reasonably priced and I would recommend this tour to anyone.
