Our guide was on time and friendly. She was very informative and gave us lots of information about Venice and also about the best places to eat and visit. We had a great time on the tour and gondola ride which was easy to get to and no complications and waiting. I recommend this tour

Great

But, I thought this tour was included museums, which the reason I purchased the tickets. I had been two previous tours similar.

Die Führung durch die Stadt war sehr schön! Die Gondelfahrt war etwas chaotisch und relativ kurz, ca. 25 Minuten, obwohl in der Beschreibung steht 35 Minuten. Organisatorisch alles super, die Kommunikation war auch sehr schön.

Une guide qui a su en peu de temps nous donner des éléments d'histoire et d'architecture qui permettent de regarder ensuite la ville de façon plus éclairée lors de nos ballades. Le parcours en gondole est sympa (malgré la pluie) mais n'est pas commenté : on ne sait pas où on passe ni ce qu'on voit.
