Gids was gefrustreerd over het verleden en het heden van Venetië. Hij is hier blijkbaar opgegroeid en kan niet tegen het massa toerisme. Hij heeft veel verteld over zijn jeugd en weinig over de bezienswaardigheden. Enkel San Marco plein, campo S Maria en de rialto brug gezien.

Our tour guide was pleasant throughout. Very knowledgeable and we gained a greater insight as to the history of Venice. Tour stops were interesting and offered plenty of photo opportunities. Good slow pace to cater for all. Well worth it.

The tour started with a 3D experience, which was an interesting way to see how Venice developed. The walking tour was very interesting and we visited areas that were different, which was fantastic.

La guida è molto brava, preparata ed empatica. Ci ha portato anche in zone meno conosciute e ci ha raccontato particolari molto interessanti sia storici ma anche culturali. Forse c'è un po' poco tempo per soffermarsi lungo il tragitto che si percorre a ritmo piuttosto rrato. Però bellissimo. Bravi!

Visite moitié en anglais moitié en espagnole, car groupe mixte, comme cela est précisé dans le descriptif ça peu arriver. Sur le fond quelques éléments historiques intéressants. Sur la forme, notre guid était très gentille mais très introverti !

Es war alles sehr gut organisiert. Leider war uns bei der Ankunft am Flughafen vor Venedig nicht bewusst, wie der Transfer nach Venedig weiter erfolgen soll. Hier ist eine bessere Auskunft im Vorfeld zu empfehlen. Ansonsten hat alles super geklappt.

La nostra guida Valentina ha gestito egregiamente un gruppo molto numeroso e multilingue portandoci a scoprire angoli di Venezia fuori dai circuiti classici. Competente, cortese e disponibile.

Die auf Deutsch gebuchte Tour fand leider nur per Audioguide statt und wir liefen mit der Tour auf italienisch und Englisch mit. Auf italienisch war die Tour bestimmt sehr informativ, auf Englisch sehr spärlich. Der Audioguide funktionierte nicht einwandfrei, deshalb die Bewertung: es gibt viel zu t

Unser Guide war sehr nett, kompetent und bemüht. Wir hatte eine deutsche Tour gebucht und bezahlt. Unser Guide hat sich dann sehr auf Italienisch und Englisch bemüht - Deutsch konnte er aber nicht. Das ist aber ein Problem der Organisation, nicht des Guid vor Ort. Die Tour hat Spaß gemacht.
