An excellent company - Venice Tours Sri - with explicit directions for finding the business & starting point. Extremely helpful general manager. I recommend the tour itself for anyone who enjoys wandering in Venice without getting lost. Our guide was entertaining and informative. A splendid adventure for those who have seen the major attractions in Venice and enjoy quieter discoveries.My sister & I got very lost trying to find the meeting spot. We got there too late for the tour but the women who work there couldn’t have been more helpful & immediately signed us onto the next tour. The tour was so informative. We saw & learned much more than if we had done it on our own.

Disappointing - the tour guide had a thick accent which made it hard to understand somethings - some things were okay, but others were difficult to understand... having a bilingual tour makes it twice as long because half the time you are waiting for the other language - would surely be better to do two separate tours? Overall guide was not engaging at all, there was no passion or excitement about the beautiful city. On the plus side, headphones made it easy to hear even though I could not understand it all. And not the tour guides fault at all, but in our group we had people who had chosen to go on a walking tour but could not walk much....
