Customer Reviews
We had an absolute blast on our tours with Mary! We found the Northern Venice tour on our first afternoon in Venice and liked it so much we showed up the next morning so Mary could tour us around Dorsoduro. We were looking to learn more about the city’s history and find some hidden gems, and this tour did not disappoint! There are so many stories and treasures in this town — even within view of St. Mark’s Square — that you can overlook, and these tours help you get more out of your trip. Afterward, we also took her food recs and thoroughly enjoyed our own little tour of pastries, cicchetti, and great dining. Some of the best time and money we spent in Venice!
One of the best tours I experienced, I very much appreciated that we went through less busy parts of Venice. It was the first time I had listening device during free walking tour, which made the tour very enjoyable for everyone as Maria didn’t had to shout and we can all hear her. Overall really nothing to point out as a point for improvement. But quite on contrary I want to visit Venice again and see other districts with one of you guides
We really enjoyed our walking tour with Alice. Learnt history of Venice, she speak excellent English with humour and fun facts.
