CoupleVerified booking3 weeks ago5/5Easy to find the group, the tour guide was lovely and engaged with the group well. The tour of the basilica was brief (20mins). We didn't go up to the second level for some reason and stayed on the main level only. Would have been nice if the guide allowed little pauses between areas to just take photographs as it can be hard to get good pictures while also listening and being respectful to the guide giving us information. The second part of the ticket to the doges palace is self guided and was nice to do at our own pace. Don't skip the palace, it's stunning. They have free audio guides available for download, download the app beforehand (MUVE app). They have lists on the app you can download so that you don't have to do it at the locations. Very handy.DDorella R
SoloVerified booking3 weeks ago4/5All good in general, the only downside is that from Punta Sabbioni to the Lido there are only four bike spaces!! I had to wait 45 minutes to take the ferry. RegardsDDianne L

CoupleVerified booking3 weeks ago5/5We were very satisfied with the service. The booking was quick and easy, and the tickets worked without any problems during our entire stay in Venice. It was particularly convenient that we could use public transport flexibly, which allowed us to see many beautiful places. Everything was well-organized and easy to understand. We would use Headout again at any time and can definitely recommend the service!MMichel F
CoupleVerified booking4 days ago4/5The tour and the information provided were very good. Lots of info. However, interior repairs were underway and sometimes the noise was a bit too loud. Lots of history and details about the frescoes. On the plus side, you gain a much better understanding of the schism between the Roman Catholic Church and the Church of Constantinople. The interior lighting (for us around 11:00 AM) was limited. A tour better done later in the afternoon regarding the position of the sun??
