We arrived at the church by the Rialto bridge and Anna was waiting for us. We started on time as we introduced each other. We walked through the market close to the Rialto bridge, although as we were on a later tour, the fish market was over. First stop was a cichetti bar close by where I had a whipped salted cod open sandwich. Delicious. Anna explained about the history of cichetti, about the reason why certain dishes have been created, while we ate. We wandered round the narrow streets of San Polo while Anna pointed out buildings, shops, told stories about food, in between each food stop. We visited a few cichetti bars which each had their own specialties. We sampled wines. We tried prosciutto, ham, cheeses in a small deli and bought a bottle of a heavenly balsamic condiment to take home. After the savouries came the sweet - cakes, pastries and amazing gelateria. All in all we thoroughly enjoyed our 3 hour tour and we will do it again if we revisit Venice. A perfect way to experience the city and one definitely to be a DO NOT MISS THIS tour. Thank you Anna. We had a great time and ate far too much!! ????

I booked a tour with these folks over the Christmas and New Year's holiday. As an avid photographer, my goal was to capture some of the more out of the way places in Venice, and to do it at night. Mark & Carla were wonderful guides, walking me around the city exploring dark corners, telling stories, and negotiating with locals to let us into areas that we generally wouldn't be able to see or even know about. They also provided, at the end of our walk, a map of the areas we explored, as well as information about other places and sights that I might be interested in exploring on my own. All in all, a great experience. These people take the time to do it right. Never felt rushed or intimidated or bound to a schedule or path.

The tour was good however, there was a lot of focus on the art in the palace rather than the history. I would have preferred to hear more about the history of the palace, government and Venice in general over its long history

This was our second tour of the trip with Gianni. We left the kids at the apartment with some of the group and met Gianni in the evening for the tour. Since we were staying in the Dorsoduro area, Gianni offered to do the tour there. At the beginning of the tour, we requested that he include some stops for wine along the way, and he happily obliged. We all had such a good time on the tour! The stories and anecdotes were very entertaining and the wine stops were perfect. Having someone able to speak Italian was very beneficial. We ended up at a local place drinking wine and eating a delicious meat, cheese, and olive plate. I won't say how much, but our 1-1/2 hour tour went well beyond the end time. Again, if you can do a tour with Gianni, you should do so!

I was sceptical about renting an e-bike at first, but our trip completely changed my mind! Also, the bike rental service was great and very helpful (especially with adjusting the bike to my height). Definitely recommend doing a bike tour through the smaller villages around Padova.
