This tour could be amazing-much depends on the guide. Our group was split into 2 because of the size and the other guide was so informative and fun(Stefano) Our guide less so-Ellie. She said "tourists are like children" and treated us that way. She did not offer any insight, we found ourselves craning our ears to hear Stefano's descriptions of pirates trying to invade, and thought maybe we had the wrong guide. The area is, of course, beautiful and the walking not too strenuous, I would recommend people not be too intimidated by the walking part but do get a good guide.

The guide, Tom, was so nice and helpful, the tour is amazing and one note-we were running late and the other tour guests agreed to wait for us!! So nice of them and of the tour company.

My Rating

I rated this a 4 as we missed the first half-the Piazza was flooded and we couldn't make it across the raised walkways in time to get to the start point. But the 2nd half was great, our guide amazing, (don't recall her name but she is from Connecticut)and how could you possibly rate Venice badly!! Great tour, and so worth it!!

This was the best tour-our guide, Elisa, was amazing, the entire bus group loved her and her us-and it showed. Smart, informative, and helpful-the walking not hard, the lunch was delicious-I could have had seconds-it was a great experience and our favourite tour.

These tours were both exceptional-our guides 2 very smart and well informed ladies who were willing to answer our questions-the walking was not hard, it was so good to walk past the long queues at the museums-they are so long- and it also gave us a base on which to plan our independent exploration of Florence. Well done!!
