5.00Chioggia tour on a typical local boat...an unforgettable experience, a different way to visit this picturesque Little Venice. Damiano, kind and friendly, illustrated places, history, curiosities, and anecdotes of the area, also giving us the opportunity to take photos at our leisure...an hour and a half flew by. Highly recommended

5.00The acqua culture tour is an experience that you should do once you have done or in alternative to the tourist tours. It is about getting into why Chioggia and its people and Damiano is a great guide.

5.00Chioggia is a small gem worth visiting at least once. Thanks to Damiano we discovered many interesting things that, without his guidance, we would not have discovered or noticed. Experience that we recommend to everyone.
Unique story telling and fun

5.00A truly memorable experience. Even though I have known Chioggia for years, seeing it from the water at night gave me a completely new perspective. The lights reflecting on the lagoon, the quiet atmosphere, the sounds of local life still present along the canals — everything creates a very special mood that you simply cannot experience from land. We stayed at The Farmont Residences and they recommended him To us What makes the tour exceptional is Damiano’s ability to guide you through the lagoon with total confidence and precision, even in the dark. Watching him navigate so naturally, knowing every passage and every hidden corner even when there is almost no light, adds an extra layer of trust and admiration to the whole experience. Along the way he shares fascinating stories, local history and details about the area with real passion, making the tour not only beautiful but also rich in meaning. It doesn’t feel like a standard tour at all — it feels personal, authentic and deeply connected to the place. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to experience Chioggia in a unique and unforgettable way, especially at night ✨🌙
