Follow the Hugo Pratt’s steps and experience Corto Maltese’s adventures in the maze of the city through mysterious places and courtyards dreaming between fantasy and reality. "There are three magical and hidden places in Venice, one in calle dell’amor dei amici; a second near Ponte de le meravegie, a third in calle dei Marrani at San Geremia in the Ghetto. When the Venetians are tired of the established authorities, they go to these three secret places and, opening the doors at the bottom of those courtyards, they go forever to beautiful places and other stories " Explore the places suggested by Corto Maltese and pay homage to Hugo Pratt, who never made any secret of considering Venice the center of the world. Stroll through calli and campielli off the busiest streets of the city, rediscovering the places of Pratt's life and those drawn in his comics. Daydream walking with your eyes up in the air and a comic strip in your hand, spending some hours in the "Fable of Venice"

Inclusions: Professional guide
Exclusions: Offer for the crypt (€ 3.00 per person), Food and drinks, Hotel pickup and drop-off
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

Fantastic we’re all booked for Venice a lovely surprise by my fiancé, it’s been a nightmare in lockdown over the COVID-19 the last 5 months, We both were truly looking forward to our 1st time on a Private Gondola for 2! Once arrived at our hotel we realised we could have got this ride a lot cheaper. Let me start by saying we were 10 mins early, we waited until our 4pm slot, the tour guide man was friendly but seemed to be a little confused and seemed to be looking for some thing before we started , this took up our time by 5 mins, NOT a GREAT-START Guys! Once on board of the Gondola, the trip started late , we headed out on the Grand Canal for not very long and then was taken down some back street canal & returned back to base! Not worth the money or time with these rip off people & What 30 mins, it was more like 17mins for 120 Euros! We spent 30 mins getting to this place when we should have booked the Private Gondola our side of our friendly hotel!! Avoid This company ALL together, once I complained he said he had given as 30 mins really!!! Never ever again!! Your better of with your hotel’s recommendations or a better trip advisor Gondola company!! Your company & the people that work for you, should be ashamed of your selfishness towards good people in hard times like these!! Avoid AT ALL Costs People !!!

I have been to Venice before but wanted to show my wife the most of Venice in 3 days before we departed for our cruise. We had a limited time visiting Venice and decided on this tour rather than exploring on our own for the sake of time. This was a wonderful tour and highlighted the best of Venice. We really enjoyed the narration of the city and it's history. The boat ride was probably the highlight of the tour. It showed us many areas that tourist don't usually go to and we saw absolutely beautiful cathedrals and private homes. This tour was a no brainier and would recommended it to everyone.

I took it in Sep 2019. What I thought would be a serene end to my very exciting and fun-filled day turned out to be a very disappointing and super noisy experience. First of all, they run it in fleets and music plays only on one gondola. My fleet had 5 gondolas and orchestra was playing only in the middle one. Mine was the first in the line. I still tried to enjoy it and hear what was being played on that one lucky gondola but NOPE. Even that became impossible because our gondolier thought it to be the best time to chat with his friends on other gondolas at the peak of his voice. He was very inconsiderate and was chatting with his friends (shouting) during the whole ride. I was a solo traveller and there were couple of other families on my gondola. When we couldn't take it anymore and almost towards the end of the ride, I and one other person asked him very politely to turn it down a bit as we wanted to hear the music that was being played on 2 gondolas behind, he behaved very rudely and insolently, imitating us to his friends, making sh sh...sounds. WOW! So, in nutshell: What I expected: Scenic gondola ride with peaceful music playing on my gondola What I got: Music playing on a gondola that was 2 gondolas away, super noisy and insolent gondlier. Some serenade it was!

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.
