Lovely tour. Not too detailed. I liked the ear pieces so that you could listen without having to crowd. Good pace for us all.

Fantastic tour! I went with my children, and they had a great time, especially enjoying the boat ride from Doge's to the Murano glassblowing demo. The Doge’s Palace was fascinating, and our guide was truly knowledgeable. Everything was well organized. A wonderful way to experience Venice
