⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Venice Walking Tour with Francesco! My wife and I had an absolutely wonderful experience exploring the beautiful city of Venice with Francesco as our tour guide! From beginning to end, Francesco was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, professional, and passionate about sharing the history and hidden gems of this amazing city. He made the entire walking tour engaging, informative, and enjoyable. His attention to detail, fascinating stories, and genuine enthusiasm brought Venice to life in a way we never could have experienced on our own. What truly stood out was his warm personality and ability to make everyone feel welcome and comfortable. We walked away with a much deeper appreciation for Venice, its rich history, and its unique culture. If you’re visiting Venice, I highly recommend booking a walking tour with Francesco. He truly made our visit memorable, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Thank you, Francesco, for such an unforgettable experience!
Isabella was our guide and my boyfriend and I had a wonderful experience. She’s from Venice and is very knowledgeable about the history and we learned a lot. She took us all around and answered any questions we had as well. We also enjoyed a nice glass of spritz!
Valentina is a lovely guide through Venice's hidden gems. She tells interesting, insightful and funny stories. We really enjoyed every aspect of the walking tour. Highly recommend.
Our tour was paced nicely which allowed for seeing a lot between points of interest. Our guide, Valentina, provided excellent and interesting information. We enjoyed the spritz break which gave everyone a short rest.
Francescia was extremely knowledgeable ~ so much about the history, architecture, and development of the islands. Best tour by far.
It was a nice tour and she took us out of all the tourist area where we would not have gone without her.
Lovely knowledgeable tour guide. Great experience.
Place difficult to find but our guide Valentina was awesome ! Thanks !
We had a wonderful walking tour of Venice with Valentina! She was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, calm and engaging, sharing so much fascinating history and interesting details about the city. It was a great way to explore Venice, discover hidden gems and learn more about its history and culture. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and would highly recommend booking with this company and valentina as your guide if you’re visiting Venice!
Rosella was absolutely amazing! Couldn’t have asked for a better guide ❤️
Great time on the tour. Thank you so much for a lovely tour. We really enjoyed it and would very much recommend it. Bravo Isabella.
Valentina was thorough, nice and she answered all our questions.
Was informative and knowledgeable.
This was a very enjoyable and interesting tour and a great introduction to Venice. Valentina was excellent. Her knowledge of the city and her passion for it were obvious. And the refreshment at the end was very welcome.
Went with Valentina and who was amazing with abundance of knowledge they only thing was rushed back to office to get gondola where you would think it would meet you at the point of finishing with some guests
An incredible walking tour, our guide was so knowledgable and the route was so well thought out! We were very limited with time but this meant we could see lots in a small amount of time. Really recommend if you’re looking for a walking tour.
Valentina was lovely! Very informative. 29 euros was reasonable for almost two hours. Just ten people on the tour.
A personable tour with a native Venetian. Rosella has a passion for her city and historical knowledge to match.
Informative tour that provides some good insights.
Ww had a great guide that was very knowledgeable.
A wonderful tour. We learned so much about the history of Venice, and Venice as it is today. Our tour guide Rosella was knowledgeable, and passionate. Would recommend.
Valentina was very knowledgeable and spoke clear English at a good pace that was easy to follow.
Tour mostly focused on Piazza San Marco. I was hoping to see more of the island. The ear pieces were terrible and did not stay on your ear. Our tour guide was very nice but didn’t really give any interesting or fun stories. Overall very average. Perhaps another guide might have provided a better experience??
Did not cover stops advertised (Rialto bridge, Marco Polo’s house, the Yard of Venice Gallery to see a gondola up close, or “stepping inside a Venetian palace”). Guide Alessandro was not good, his English was a bit hard to understand and he rambled about astrology. We were disappointed we didn’t learn more about Venice’s rich history.
Valentina Petrelli was a lovely guide. She was born and raised in Venice, went to school here and has continued to live on the island, so her love and knowledge of Venice really came through during the two-hour tour. Stopping for a Spritz at the end was a lovely way to finish the tour. At €27, it was definitely worth it!
Lots of interesting stops, stories
Valentine was really good and a great hoste, providing some very interesting insider knowledge.
Valentina was very a friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. She knows the history of Venice and it shows. We had a smaller intimate group tour. Good length about 2 hours and we had some special stops along the tour. The tour didn’t feel rushed. We got to see many interesting parts of the city and we left feeling like we learned lots. We even went back to some of the spots that Valentina showed us later in the day. Would recommend this tour to anyone!
Awesome experience. Great guide, very friendly and knowledgeable.
9am Walking tour. Nice small group, only 6 of us. Our knowledgeable guide Valentina took us to lots of spots we hadn’t found ourselves. Valentina suggested a couple of other places to visit in our own time, for which she made sure we had the correct spot load into maps.
Rosella was a fantastic tour guide, provided excellent insight into the history of Venice along with fun trivia facts. Would highly recommend for ease of access and good tour of Venice to understand both the important landmarks and appreciation of history through architecture
Valentina was such a nice and knowledgeable tour guide! My family and I really enjoyed the tour, and Valentina made the experience fun and enjoyable. We even got a free Aperol Spritz with the tour 😊. Thank you Valentina and Venice Tours!
Valentina was a great tour guide! She was so knowledgeable and friendly, she took the extra time to explain so many things about Venice and its history that I never heard or knew before. We got to experience Venice’s beauty and rich history on our tour, and Valentina enhanced the tour with her expertise and courteousness. 10/10!!
Fun and informative. Lots of interesting facts
Francesco was very knowledgeable, friendly and well spoken. He answered many questions and always had very insightful information during our tour.
