Very poor organization and communication.. Guide was very good and knowledgable. Gondola part was awful. They sell this as one tour, but they tag you to another later tour . Had to wait an hour and a half for the gondola. And that is with us having to remind them twice that we waiting for the tour.

A decent enough walking tour but hardly of “hidden Venice” unless you consider anything that’s not St Mark’s square hidden, I mean it ended at the Rialto bridge.

I didn’t get to do the gondola tour because my time was changed from 2:00 to 4:00. I did not want to miss my scheduled train back to Florence. I was assured the time would work and it didn’t. I deserve a refund because I followed the advise of the representative.

Our Guide Valentina was very informative and explained many things we would’ve just walked by. If not for a local explaining what were hidden gems in the city plus the VR history booth was cool too..

Valentina gave us a great tour and then we got to ride a gondola as well! With a guided tour and gondola it was a lot less expensive compared to other bookings! This made the choice even easier for my friend and I.

This company is so helpful and well organised. We were late for 11.30 walk so they happily moved us to later, and changed the gondola ride. The tour starts with a VR presentation which was amazing and a surprise. Valentina, our guide was incredible-guided the tour in English and Spanish and seemed to have a fathomless knowledge of Venice. Our gondolier was lovely

Our tour guide, Valentina, shared lots of interesting facts about Venice and Venetian life. At the beginning of the walking tour, we experienced a VR look back in history, which was very informative and a nice surprise to the tour.
It was raining the day of our tour and Venice Tours worked with us to reschedule our gondola ride. Had a fantastic time!

Thoroughly enjoyable. Tour commenced with a virtual reality display in the Library next to the meeting point & office. By wearing digital goggles we had an amazing visual and audio presentation of the history of Venice through the centuries. Our guide Valentina then took us through the narrow streets while telling us interesting stories and information about the area, palaces, houses etc. Stopping to point out and explain notable examples. She spoke slowly with excellent English. The hearing devices worked well, even with my husband’s hearing aids. During our tour it rained quite heavily so umbrellas did interfere at times with our view and comfort however that cannot be helped. The walking tour starts at the allocated time. There is a break between finishing the tour and the Gondola ride. because it is booked for a set time but also starts from the same meeting point. Be prepared to wait for your Gondola, it is a great experience - there is an App you can download for descriptions of points of interest. The staff are very friendly and obliging. Allow time to find your way to the meeting point as it is easy to get lost.

The Hidden Venice tour was very good. Valentina was great and showed us some spots we wouldn't have seen on our own, plus she gave us some unique insights about the history of Venice. Our gondola ride went great. Very well organized and a fun ride through some of the canals. We recommend this tour when your in Venice.

Always fun to learn about new areas. Not as much factual information about Venice as we would have liked and the sound quality of the listening device was the greatest.
