Fantastic tour!!

Published on Oct, 2024

We had a fantastic time on this tour! Good overall start to get us grounded in the different sections of Venice. Our guide was simply wonderful interspersing her personal story with the history of Venice. We asked tons of questions and she answered each and every one patiently and with such grace. Would highly recommend!!

Venice family trip

Denise was a great tour guide in Venice. She was very patient with a large family group and great with the kids

Loved our tour with the most amazing guide Denise!

Published on Jul, 2024

Great tour! We loved our guide Denise. She was so knowledgeable but also fun! A true Venetian who went above and beyond and told and showed us so much more than we expected. We felt like locals for a bit, eating the best gelato in a quieter neighbourhood away from the crowds. And went away with many stories and recommendations and tips for dinner and shopping.

The most amazing tour with a local guide!

We had a great tour with our guide Denise! She was so knowledgeable but also fun, and what better than getting a tour from a local! She had the best stories to tell, things to show and best recommendations to give. Our gondola ride was amazing and we ended up with the best gelato in town in a quiet neighbourhood away from the crowds.

Wonderful Guide

Published on May, 2024

We had an amazing day in Venice. Denise was our best tour guide in 2 weeks in Italy. She was very knowledgeable about her city and the Doge and Basilica were amazing. She helped us tailor our tour to our preferences. Her English is fantastic and my wife and I had a blast. She gave us great dinner and shopping recommendations. Denise created a one of kind experience and we are so thankful. Grazie a Millie!!!
