Easy to follow instructions, found our guide easily. The earphone and speaker we were each given was amazing. My husband wears hearing aids and worried he might not be able to hear, but even if a way away from your tourguide you don't miss anything with the earpiece. Our guide was fantastic, hearing bits from someone born and raised lin Venice was great! Basilica, Douges Palace, bit of the dungeons and glass demo! Highly recommend, well worth the price.

This tour was a great way to see Venice’s most important landmarks. Our guide, Rebecca, was excellent, very knowledgeable and engaging, never boring. The skip-the-line access was extremely comfortable and saved a lot of time. The two extras: the Glass Museum and tickets to the Correr Museum, were a great idea and a nice bonus. Highly recommended!

The guide Alessia spoke very clear English and what she told us was very interesting. It was easy to find the group at the beginning and we were informed in time of all the necessary changes. The basilica is unique and beautiful... you have to see it! The cathedral too... It contains many masterpieces by famous Venetian artists...

    The tour was good with lots of time at each place. Unfortunately the English was not great and understanding what was said was difficult. A self tour with ChatGPT would have been better.

    To pick up the tickets, the address lacks precision regarding the exact location. Regarding the visit, the palace is very beautiful and interesting despite the audio guide not working.

    I gave only 4 stars because the tickets you receive upon payment are not the actual tickets but one needs to go to the tourist office to collect them.
