We walked all over Venice and got to see a Banksy which was very important to a person in our group. We met Julian at the train station...make sure you get a store or someplace to meet in the e-mail the day before. He walked us to our gonodola ride. Our gondolier was not very nice but this is not Julian's fault. We told him and I believe he will pass on the information to his tour group. Even though we were there during the outbreak, we had a great time and really learned a lot about Venice.

Thank you for the 5stars review! Julian is relly happy to get such a positive feedback, and we're glad to hear that you enjoyed your time in the beautiful Venice, also getting to see a piece of art that was so important to one of you. We're sorry about the experience with the gondolier but luckily it didn't take away from the beauty of Venice and its Grand Canal. Hope to see you again in one of our tours!

Julian was excellent. He was very engaged and knowledgeable. He spoke well and took us around Venice to the places we wanted to see.He made sure we got to the gondola and came back to get us and finish our tour. He assisted in getting us on water taxi and to the people mover as he lived nearby. The weather was perfect. Gondola ride was just prior to sunset and a great time for us to be on the gondola. Julian took pictures for us and then emailed them to us. Very nice touch. Would recommend Julian for the tour.

My tour group would like to extend our gratitude to your team with specific mention to Elisabeth being a wonderful tour guide. She was very knowledgeable of Venice and the surrounding areas. Ensuring we all understood the rich and cultural history Venice has to offer. Not to mention she went over and beyond her time to complete the tour. Much appreciated and we will highly recommend your services to our family and friends in Sydney Australia.

Didn’t even receive a tour.

This was a horrible experience. My mom and I weren’t told where to meet and weren’t able to get a hold of the guide or company and by the time we did, we missed the gondola ride and was given a poor explanation of everything in Venice during the walking “tour.”

We are sorry about your bad experience. We always contact our customers the day before their tour to confirm all the meeting details to be sure that everything is well organized. Venice is a city with a long and insteresting history, our guides provide the most important information to introduce the city to our customers.
