We had a wonderful time with our guide. He was very informative and shared a lot of history with us. The boat ride was really nice. We saw a lot of the city on our private boat and enjoyed this very much. Would recommend this tour!

Had a great day seeing Venice. We loved the private tour of the city. We walked and took a water taxi all around the island. Our guide Aryana explained everything as we walked through St. Marks square. She had skip the line tickets ready to go.

We used Avventure Bellisime when planning our entire trip to Italy and honestly…I couldn’t be happier! They (the company, the guides, the drivers, the excursions) were top notch and the whole trip was seamless. I highly recommend them to others looking for a travel company. Well worth the money!

I greatly enjoyed all the 3 tours. The tour guide, Sabrina, was incredible - very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and entertaining, and spoke excellent English! I had a lot of fun and learnt a lot! Would highly recommend this package to anyone including families with children as you get decent time for a lunch break in between tour 1&2.
Small tip: Don't forget to bring a bottle of water and sunscreen - the guide will try to keep you in the shade as much as possible but you still burn pretty quickly especially on the boat.

We were helped by Cristina and Ariana to see the Doges Palace as well as the Basilica and Walking Tour. Both were excellent guides who were extremely knowledgeable. They were really good at showing us the important sights but also making it personal and answering all of our questions.
