Georgia was an exceptional tour guide. Truly one of the most knowledgable tour guide we have ever had. Highly recommend a private tour! It is so personalized.
Georgia truly showed and shared a part of Venice would never had seen.
And We did an 8 hour tour and it truly encompassed so much.

Our guide, Nicola was great - we love learning and felt like we were in a Venice Masterclass with our own young Venetian scholar! He answered every question we had with enthusiasm- even the uninformed ones. It was fantastic! He was also sensitive to our needs- we stepped in for a cup of expresso, just at the right time. There was a lot to like on this tour: the boat tour of the grand canal, walking tour of the Campos, lunch, Murano glass tour. Definitely worth the cost!
