Great tour
Leanne_B, Aug 2022
A good tour with a knowledgeable tour guide who gave equal time to English and German language speakers.
Response from Host, Aug 2022
Hi, thank you so much for your review,
Hope to see you again in future!
Best regards, Riccardo
fantastic Venice
Wayne_P, Jul 2022
very well organized tour well worth doing. the only problem when we went was it was 40 degrees which was too hot. if the temperature was in the upper 20's it would have been perfect
Stunning day trip
Dennis_P, Jul 2022
Stunning day out in Venice great organised boat trip from the coach park to st marks square and a well organised walking tour of all the sights then an optional gondola ride or a trip around the outer islands which are both well worth the money it is a long day but we’ll worth it
Not worth the time or money.
Valerie_L, Jul 2022
Despite booking an English language tour, the bulk of the commentary was in German. The guide, Janka, was Czech and seemed happiest speaking German, although her English was perfect. After describing something in German and answering German questions, the English description was given but there was no time for questions or clarification. The optional lunch was the poorest meal we ate in Italy -€16 would buy a pasta dish or pizza and a drink in almost any of the restaurants we passed. I think it would be better to wander around with a guide book.
Response from Host, Jul 2022
Hi Dear,
why should an optional lunch affect the review you are doing on our tour?
Lunch as you said was not included, but simply a suggestion from the guide of where to eat in Venice with € 16 ..
Anyway.. because you think that a full-day trip to one of the most beautiful, characteristic and recognized cities in the world does not worth the time or money (which sounds very offensive), i explain to whom is reading what our trip includes. :)
The tour includes:
- Transport by bus from all the village around Lake Garda and back
- Tour guide during all the day (german and english language)
- Headphones during the walking tour of 45 minutes in Venice
- Boat through Giudecca canal to Saint Mark square and back
- All taxes, fees etc.
Thank you,
Best regards, Riccardo
Good tour but make sure you get the practicalities right
Sofia_G, Jul 2022
Good knowledgeable guide, good balance guiding vs own time.
Recommend a gondola ride but if you are three or more people it is less expensive to set it up yourself instead of through the tour (plenty available).
Very warm in July…. Remember to have clothing that covers knees and shoulders if you want to enter the churches.
Make sure to double-check pick up point through contacting the tour operator. We had some issues here and had to call the operator. We (and two other families) were finally picked up by a taxi that took us to the bus. Would have been perfectly fine of course if had been communicated but we were accused of being in the wrong place (and we’re very happy yo have written confirmation from the operator to proof that we were not) AND ended up 10 people + driver in a taxi with 9 seats - both to and from the bus. Thankfully only for about 10 minutes but did not feel safe at all and must be illegal.
A great first trip to Venice.
Claire_C, Jul 2022
This was a good overall tour of the city of Venice. It was our first time visiting so wanted to purchase a tour to provide us with information about the history but also assistance with the logistics. This was suitable for our three teenage boys too. It gave us just about the right amount of structure and freedom to explore by ourselves which we ultimately prefer to do as a family. Frederick our guide was entertaining and very knowledgeable, he had to keep pace by speaking in both German and English which we didn't mind even though I thought I had purchased an English speaking tour (which technically it was, it was just my expectations that were slightly different).
Fab trip to Venice
Jeremy_H, Jul 2022
The pick up time was as stated,the tour guide (Frederick)was very friendly & informative his knowledge was second to none. The day was brilliant from start to finish, the icing on the cake was the gondola ride. Excellent value for money.
Outstanding guide and brilliant day out
Eve_A, Jul 2022

Venice in a day
Brian_P, Jun 2022
Very well organised trip and a fabulous host with excellent English and very knowledgeable. Would highly recommend.
Wow! A wonderful day in Venice.
Carl_H, Jun 2022
Recommend for a taste of Venice. A wonderful day with our guide Francesco who was very knowledgeable. Gondola ride and lagoon trip were optional extra and would recommend as organisation was excellent and the day flowed well with a couple of hours free time. Just an amazing place to visit.
