What is Travelers’ Choice?
Tripadvisor gives a Travelers’ Choice award to accommodations, attractions and restaurants that consistently earn great reviews from travelers and are ranked within the top 10% of properties on Tripadvisor.
Venice, where I live, is the most beautiful city in the world: despite being extremely small, it hoards an impressive wealth of Art, Architecture and History, making it a truly unique place. For centuries, this was the capital city of an economic and military empire, ruling over maritime traffic (particularly with the East) and able to cope with formidable “competitors” such as the Ottoman Empire! The tour would show us less touristy areas, focusing more on beautiful architecture, and Venetian culture with interesting tales about Venetian courtesans, government, , and painters; It would be like using a time machine and going back in time

          Venice with Nadia
          We had a 2 hour walking tour followed by a 1 hour boat tour of Venice. Our tour guide was Nadia Danesin, who did an excellent job. She took us to parts & places where tourists aren’t aware of and pointed out nice local restaurants and places of interests . After the walking tour we took an hour tour in a private boat along the canals of Venice and then around the city itself. Excellent tour. Highly recommend this great way to experience Venice.

          One of the best guides we had on our trip
          Nadia was an amazing tour guide. She took us to places in Venice we never would have gone to or found. She had great knowledge of the history of Venice. There was not a question she could not answer. At the end of our tour, she helped us negotiate a water taxi for the next day to get to the Venice airport. We never could have done that ourselves. She would not take no for an answer from the taxi guys.

          Experience Venice as a Venetian
          The only way to appreciate Venice! Nadia showed us how to be a local in this beautiful city and experience the city’s build up from ancient times. We went on a winding walking tour, savored the city’s best treats and finished with a dreamy boat ride. Couldn’t be happier we did this tour, every city should have Nadia narrating!

          Making the most of a short visit
          Nadia did a fantastic job fitting a ton of information and charm into a two-hour tour. Anyone interested in the history or architecture of her city would benefit from this tour.

          Wonderful tour of Venice with Nadia
          We had a wonderful tour with Nadia! We appreciated her grasp of Venetian history and love of her city. Nadia took us to small out of the way places that were a special treat and you always knew she was there for just us during this time. The included private water tour was truly excellent. The captain is a total pro and we found ourselves winding through some of the smaller canals I never would have imagined our very comfortable boat could navigate. A wonderful afternoon - and we did feel a little like Venetians by the end.

          Nadia is THE BEST!!
          Nadia gave us a truly unforgettable experience. We got a locals-perspective of Venice and got to eat at all of the best local spots! She provided us with a detailed history of Venice, taught us about Venetian culture and made us feel like family. I couldn’t recommend her enough!! If you want to truly see Venice, book with Nadia ❤️

          Get lost in Venice and discover the beautiful island.
          Our family loved Nadia, she is a true Venetian who was born here. She was very knowledgeable about the country and the history of Venice. Definitely, would highly recommend this tour.

          Great private tour of Venice!
          Nadia is an amazing tour guide. She made everyone feel like family, and gave us an incredible tour of the city. It was obvious that she is a 'native Venetian'. We loved every minute of it.

          Nadia is the best
          By having a private tour I learned so much history and saw so many sights that I never would have on my own. Nadia us a delightful person and gave me ideas of several things to do in Venice. - Brenda

          Best tour of Venice!!
          Linda was amazing! We had a private one hour tour via a small water taxi followed by a two hour walking tour. She was passionate about Venice and told us so many interesting things about the city that we never would have known. She went above and beyond and also gave us information about what else we could do in the short amount of time we had. I’m so glad we took her advice! Thank you Linda, for helping to make our trip to Venice so memorable!
