The first highlight of the walking tour is St. Mark's square, with the deion of the majestic St. Mark's Basilica, the elegant Doge's Palace, the Clock Tower and the Procuratie (only external, for now).

Imperdible
Es de esas cosas que uno recuerda años después. No es lo más barato, pero se justifica. Nos quedamos caminando por Venice's Honolulu después de la cena. Si volvemos a Venecia, lo repetimos.

Correcto
Cumple con lo que ofrece. Se agradece el auriculares personales. Las mesas están un poco juntas. Recomendable en general.

Buena elección si es tu primera vez en Venecia. Cambiamos la fecha dos días antes y no hubo ningún problema. Buen guía, correcto y amable. Por el precio que pagamos, la verdad que rinde muchísimo. El único detalle fue que faltó agua disponible, sobre todo con el calor. Buena experiencia dentro de todo.

Exceeded expectations
Just brilliant. Easy going, you do not need to be fit for it. The stop at Veneza was our favourite. One of the best things we have booked online.

Repetiría sin dudar
Simplemente perfecto. La coordinación fue puntual y todo estuvo organizado. Sale más que hacerlo suelto, pero te ahorra toda la organización. Volvimos a Venecia al día siguiente por nuestra cuenta. Ya lo recomendé a dos amigos que viajan el mes que viene.

Simplemente perfecto. Es una forma muy práctica de ubicarte en la ciudad el primer día. El guía respondió hasta las preguntas más raras con datos precisos. El detalle de auriculares personales suma bastante. Cinco estrellas bien merecidas.
