Our guide, Georgia, was knowledgeable, friendly, and easy to understand. My wife and I loved the insights she shared. Her enthusiasm for the history of Venice, and the way she shared her deep knowledge of the Doge's Palace and Prisons, kept us engaged and entertained the entire time. While we got to see all the highlights and the length of the tour was just right, we wished we could have toured every room in the entire palace with her. I would definitely do the tour over again next time I'm in Venice.
