Great walking tour of the San Marco area, the Basilica and a gondola ride - Our guide Rossanna was wonderful, knowledgeable, funny, personable. We learned a lot about the city and its history and the Basilica in a fun way. We returned at 5:00 pm for a very pleasant 30-minute gondola ride through some side canals with a return via a short time on the Grand Canal.
