Our tour guide Christina was enthusiastic. The tour felt a little disorganized (some of which was unavoidable as the high tides meant flooding in areas of the city which we had to work around) but we felt like the stories didn’t match many of the areas we walked on the tour and some were not detailed or even scary. It was an ok experience.This was a great tour. Our guide, Christina, did an excellent job making sure everyone could hear her. She also was able to answer everyone’s questions. The stories were interesting and it was fun to hear about some of Venice’s “darker history”

But a good overview of the city.

The lady was very nice, showed up on time, and led us through the little streets of real Venice - where no one goes, no tourists, only a person or two on their way home! I could hear my footsteps. It is not that much of a ghost story tour ( although we heard couple of stories ), but more like a historical thing. Learned a lot of interesting facts and saw places which I could have seen otherwise. I strongly recommend. P.S.Our tour felt very uninspired.

Our tour felt very uninspired. Christina was nice but didn’t have many stories and the places we walked during the tour were often not very interesting back alleys. Most of the stories were not connected to the places we walked. I saw much more interesting stories in a book at our apartment and could probably have led a better tour for our group. Hopefully the company will dig a little deeper into Venetian lore and develop a better tour.The guide seemed nice but we couldn’t hear for the first half of the tour. There were 22 people and it was a packed night in the squares of Venice, and a guide without the typical ear radios of every other tour. DEFINITELY need radios so the guide can walk and talk.

The guide seemed nice but we couldn’t hear for the first half of the tour. There were 22 people and it was a packed night in the squares of Venice, and a guide without the typical ear radios of every other tour. DEFINITELY need radios so the guide can walk and talk. Too much walking without any explanations from guide, which would have been solved by the earpieces.
