The tour guide Barbara was amazing! The locations, drinks and food she selected were perfect. She provided us so much information on the Venetian culture. We enjoyed every minute! Perfect evening.

Our guide Katty was excellent. We ended up as a group of 4 which made the whole experience much more personable. Katty is well informed and passionate about Venice so in addition to food and drinks we also learned a great deal about the history. Also she made every effort to accommodate my gluten allergy. All in all a great intro to Venice

We loved our tour with Ludovica and her enthusiasm for the food, history, and culture of Venice. And her care for the community, like ensuring our tour didn't block the narrow Venetian streets.

I have no idea what guest support means and think it is open to too much interpretation. The guide was good, but lacked a degree of rapport with vendors - for example at one stop my wife wanted water rather than wine, but our guide was persistently refused this request. As soon as my wife asked the same server she was immediately given a bottle of water.
