A Dreamy Afternoon on the Water
Our private Grand Canal tour with LivTours was nothing short of magical. Cruising along the canal with a glass of prosecco while Marco shared stories about Venice’s history made us feel like we were in a movie. Passing under the Rialto Bridge as the sun began to set was a moment I’ll never forget.
- SarahA Photographer’s Paradise
As a photography enthusiast, I was in heaven. The reflections on the water, the play of light on the buildings, and that view of Rialto Bridge — stunning! I appreciated how the guide paused at scenic spots so I could snap the perfect shot.
- Olivia ChangVenice at Golden Hour
We timed our tour to start late in the day and were rewarded with the golden glow of sunset over the palazzos. It was stunning. Our guide, Luca, even played soft Italian music through a small speaker — total atmosphere!
- Antonio R.An Architectural Feast
As an architect, I was amazed by the variety of styles along the Grand Canal — Gothic, Baroque, Renaissance. Giulia explained how each era left its mark on the city. The water taxi allowed us to get a perfect line of sight on buildings impossible to appreciate from land.
- AaronA Peaceful Perspective of Venice
Seeing Venice from the Grand Canal gave us an entirely different appreciation of its beauty and history. Our guide, Elena, highlighted how each building had its own story. The prosecco was refreshing, and the breeze on the water made it all feel so serene.

Being in that sleek water taxi, surrounded by palazzos and sipping prosecco — it honestly felt like we lived in a different era. Our guide Chiara was so knowledgeable and passionate. She gave us restaurant tips that were spot on too.
- Thomas B.From Chaos to Calm
Venice can be overwhelming with crowds, but this tour was pure calm. Gliding down the canal, away from the tourist noise, with a cold drink in hand was bliss. We learned so much about the city’s rise and fall — fascinating stuff.

We booked this to celebrate my husband’s 60th birthday, and it exceeded expectations. Our guide, Marco, made us feel so special and shared local legends I’d never heard before. The prosecco toast as we passed under the Accademia Bridge was perfect.
- SheilaVenice Like You’ve Never Seen It
This wasn’t our first time in Venice, but it was the first time we truly understood its layout and beauty. Our guide, Luca, pointed out hidden courtyards and gave us insight into life on the lagoon. The prosecco was a lovely touch.
- Michael T.Perfect Introduction to Venice
We booked this on our first day in Venice and it was the best way to start the trip. Our guide, Elena, was knowledgeable and engaging, pointing out little details we would’ve missed. The kids loved spotting gondolas and waving at locals. LivTours made it seamless from start to finish.
