          Excellent experience
          One of the most enjoyable days I can remember. Tour was incredibly well-organised and our guide was friendly, knowledgable and thoroughly professional. The day was flexible with us having the ability to choose as much or as little time on each island. I could not recommend this more highly.

          Romantic trip with the support from Top Venice
          Excellent arrangements with boat trip to Murano&Burano and sunset boat tour through Venice. Or guide, Kristina was very charming, knowledgeable, very positive, always smiling and friendly. She has shown us the best parts of the city and the neighborhood, with main attractions and hidden pearls. She seemed to know and love all the history and architecture of Venice. We were really happy to have her as our host in this beautiful and romantic city.

          Santa Monica is now a piece of Trash and the Metro could care less about Santa Monica
          I live close to the 17th street station , the City lets the Metro Shout over the loud Speaker all day all night . The speakers Yell at our homes way over city noise levels allowed , homeless sleep all over station . They bring a huge power washer in every night at 3 am so noisy with moters runing for a hour . How dare they no regard for the people who live in Santa Monica , homeless , trash everywere they have distroyed this City . Dont come to Santa Monica even the Beach is gross full of oil and sewer .

          The only way to see Murano/Burano
          We wanted a private tour of Murano and Burano and stayed by the airport so needed hotel pickup. This was one of only a couple willing to drive to our hotel. Sure, we paid extra for the pickup but we didnt have to hassle with busses and trains and boats. Monica was our guide and she was simply OUTSTANDING!!!! They even booked us a a 4 star restaurant on Burano and it was excellent. Every aspect of this tour was just beyond our expectations. This is a reliable company you can trust!!!!

          Gondola and sommelier tour
          We had an incredible time with our guide Sarah who taught us so much about Venice, gondolas, and Venetian classic wine/food. Must try experience if you’re in Venice!

          Transfer from Venezia S. Lucia to Palazzo Del Giglio
          The transfer went very smoothly. We arrived via train from Ravenna, IT after a cruise. Highly recommend. The communication was exceptional.

          A Day Imprinted on my Heart
          Absolutely and unbelievably one of the best days of my life. Giuseppe, who arranged not only this tour but many other activities for me, is a dream come true. He was so helpful on my first trip to Venice! Our guide, Kristina, was a delight to spend the day with. I am not sure there is anything she didn’t know and she is just a wonderful person to spend time with. We are so grateful we had an opportunity to learn from her and we thoroughly enjoyed her company and amazing knowledge. Please book this tour. It will become a memory of a lifetime.

          Transfer from train to hotel
          Guiseppe was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Met us right at the platform, took care of our luggage, and have us done favorite suggestions for dinner. Grazie!

          Lovely hotel In an Amazing City
          Stayed in San Cassiano in Venice for 4 nights in September, A very nice hotel right on the Grand Canal with a lovely terrace on the canal when one can sits and have a bear of Grappa in the evening. The only down side was the steep strain up to the rooms, no lift so for the frail or infirm you must specify a room on the first floor. There is no restart in the hotel but a very good breakfast. If you want an amazing restaurant nearby then go to Regina Sconta just down the calle from the hotel

          Incredible crowds and modern shopping stores fill a unique 1600 year old city
          All cruise ships must dock at Chioggia, forcing all cruise passengers to travel on very slow ferries 1.5 hours through the south lagoon to St. Mark's square, the heart of Venice. Venice has become a huge tourist shopping mall, incredibly clogged with tourists. It is hard to find and appreciate the history, still available. A gondola ride is a charming must, however brief, to feel the flavor of ancient Venice. Water taxis, very expensive to get from airport to Venice hotels. Murano and Burano are even longer to get to. Murano emphasizes glass blowing, better seen on Netflix. Burano, demonstrates the beautiful painstaking art of beautiful lace.

          Surprise Proposal
          Micheal was the best!!! We had so much fun exploring Venice and Michael was so informative with all the history and hidden spots in Venice. We had a great time together, including learning about the gondolas and traveling through the tiny canals. My boyfriend unexpectedly proposed to me which made the experience 100 times better. We even hope to have Michael as our photographer at our wedding! Thank you so much.

          Private tour for the WIN!
          Gloria, our tour guide, was definitely the highlight. She was so accommodating and flexible with our wishes. Her depth of knowledge about Venice and surrounding islands was truly remarkable. I would book again with her 10/10. This private tour is worth it!

        We were in town for just over two days and TopVenice arranged for a city tour/gondola ride one afternoon and the Grand Canal Tour with Murano and Burano. It was excellent way to see the main parts of Venice and surroundings. Lunch at Gato Nero as well. Monica and Kristina were excellent guides and Giordana was very communicative and available throughout.
