The main attraction is St. Mark's Basilica, and the line for it is very long. This tour gets you to go straight in and see everything, but it is so busy you don't get to stay very long. The rest of the tour was OK...but it was worth the price just because of not having to wait in a line that is at least 2 hours long.

This was a comprehensive tour with a well-informed guide.

The tour was worth the money, and most of all the young lady who was our guide was excellent. She was interesting, and her knowledge wonderful. Most of all, she appeared interested in the walking tour herself. It is certainly worth doing.

This is a tour well worth doing, as it takes you through parts of Venice that you would not necessarily do on your own and familiarises you with the city.

Skipping the queue is always great! Commentary was also good.

Excellent. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable, and although the tour was long and there was very little time to rest in any location, it was well worth it. Very informative and fun.

This tour is good for orienting yourself to the city for the first time, as it provides a good overview. We just breezed through St. Mark's Basilica, which can't be avoided because the queues are so long, so they let groups jump to the head of the queue, so they can't let you stay too long.

A very good tour of Venice. Our guide was excellent. A highlight is that you get to skip the queue to get into the Basilica. Worth the price of the tour alone in my opinion.

Very nice tour, but be warned, there is a lot of standing in this tour and there are NO places to sit down even for a moment during those two hours. Still worth doing, and if you're in shape this wouldn't be a problem at all.

A great overview of Venice and takes you to back streets and parts of the city you may not discover on your own.

Our tour guide was excellent. The meeting area was convenient. The staff was efficient. We learned more in two hours than we could have in a whole day without the tour.

Fantastic! We got to see a lot of places that we probably wouldn't have found if we hadn't joined the tour.

The guide gave us an enormous amount of very interesting information. It was great to see parts of the city which we would certainly not have seen if it were not for this trip.
