Very interesting walk thru streets of Venice and history; breaks for bathroom , getting a drink or snack or shopping or addition touring; The gondola ride went smoothly and skipping the line for the Doges Palace and Basilica of St Marks was wonderful. Our guide Mattia was knowledgeable and funny and definitely passionate about history and gave us a wonderful Venice experience . The beauty of the interior of St Mark’s and the Doges Palace is not to be missed

The granduer of Doges Palace, the splendor of St Mark's Cathedral and the romance of a gondola ride was over-whelming. Alex (or Alessandro), our tour guide, patiently shared his knowledge.

We went on this tour in the pouting rain. Despite the weather, our tour guide did a fabulous job. Mose was informative. Interesting and kept everyone entertained.
