Perfect way to start our stay in Venice - We had a great time with Valerio!
We took this tour on the first day of our visit and it was just perfect. A good balance between informations and fun facts. He is a true local Venitian and it makes the diffence, you can feel it like the way he shows you the streets. He gave us plenty of tips and recommendations for things to do and where to eat and drink. I will definitly recommend this tour if you wanna get the vibe of Venice!

Amazing personal guide through Venice - Amazing experience. We had our own small family guide all day. We got lost in the streets of Venice with a local. We had our 10 and 12 year olds in tow. He made it exciting for everyone. I would highly recommend!!

Amazing Local Guide - Amazing guide. A true local who knows inside out. So friendly, very good english, lots of small anecdotes. Was with my 11yr old son and the level of details and tone was just perfect - not too much not too little. Also took the time to give recommendations for the rest of the trip
So nice! 100% recommend
Thanks Valerio!

Private tour of Venise, far away from the crowd - Very nice moment spent on Dec 10th with Valerio. We enjoyed it very much. Valerio designed this tour for us, including authentic areas, interesting explanations, confidential churches and monuments, far away from the crowd. Exactly what we wanted to do. Many thanks for the list of restaurants, chocolate stores, café, gelato..

Incredbile, insightful... Memories made!! - Valerio is an excellent, insightful and charming guide! We spent three hours with him exploring Venice like a local. He knows his way around the little alleys and offers us an experience like a local. He was outstanding with our 8-year-old son, involving him all the time and giving him a live long memory. If you want to visit the usual touristy places, a guide is not needed. Converter if you want to see everything else.and learn about the history and uniqueness of Venice in a casual walk, Valerio is your man! We will defiantly come back to spend more time with him!

A Venice Must! - The walking tour we did with Valerio was the absolute highlight of our time in Venice. He is the friendliest, most interesting guide and showed us more than we ever expected to see in just two hours, all the while really giving us the locals experience. This is the walking tour we will measure all future tours by!
