Venice Tour

3.00The walking tour was great with Paula. Enjoyed the quieter side of Venice. The gondola ride was disappointing. The gondoliers assisting with entering and exiting the gondola acted like we were an inconvenience. I would hire a private gondola ride if I was to do it again.

5.00Walking tour was interesting but gondola ride exceeded expectations. We expected to ride to be short with the reasonable price but it was about 20 mins and the best part of the tour

4.00A great tour of the San Marco area of Venice. Our guide was attentive to the group, especially since it was a very hot day. There were brief parts of the tour that it was hard to hear, but overall a good experience.

1.00Poorly organized, tour started late and ran longer than stated. It was a group gondola ride which we didn’t get to take due to organization and things going longer than what was expected.

5.00Great tour, we would have been lost without guide. Very interesting info, but too much talk about celebrities that have visited Venice Gondola ride was GREAT, longer than I thought it would be. Only drawback was the transition from walking tour to gondola was a little unorganized.
