Nico was the best tour guide for our Venice trip. He was kind, knowledgeable, and moved at our pace. Would highly recommend!!

Very informative

Wonderful, informative tour with Paola. She was extremely knowledgeable and was able to answer every question. I would recommend this tour for any history buff!

Excellent tour and guide

Ottavia was an excellent guide for this tour as well as the walking overview tour of Venice. She is very friendly and knowledgeable about the area and sites. It’s definitely the way to capture Venice efficiently and in an interesting way where you can easily ask questions. Highly recommend!

Venice Perfect

Our guide Tuilla was a kind n incredibly knowledgeable leader. How much we learnt !

Exceptional Experience with LivTours and Cristina

Having visited Italy multiple times and tried various tours, I can confidently say LivTours stands out. Their small group approach truly makes a difference in quality and comfort. Our guide Cristina was incredible—deeply knowledgeable about St. Mark’s, Doge’s Palace, and all things Venice, and she shared everything in such an engaging and approachable way. Touring with her felt much more meaningful than doing it alone or in a large crowd. If you’re considering this tour, it’s definitely worth it—I highly recommend it!

Edi made history fun and engaging!

Edi was fantastic—full of humor and energy, bringing the history to life in a way that kept us hooked the entire time. I’d recommend this tour to anyone wanting an entertaining and informative experience. Truly unforgettable!

Entertaining and informative tour

Edi was lively and made the history really interesting, which kept us engaged throughout. The tour was enjoyable and well-paced. The only reason I’m giving 4 stars is that some parts felt a bit rushed due to time constraints. Still, definitely worth doing!

Fantastic tour with Filippo—highly recommended!

Our time with Filippo was truly special. He shared a wealth of knowledge, including lesser-known stories and details that really enriched the experience. His kindness and patience with our toddler made the tour comfortable and stress-free for our whole family. Filippo also took time to answer all our questions and suggested a wonderful local restaurant that we loved. We’re so glad we chose this tour and would happily book again with him!

Outstanding Tour with Martina

This was a fantastic tour to St. Mark's and Doge Palace. Martina was a wonderful guide, offering us a wealth of historical information and stories about these important historical sites. We highly recommend Martina and LivTours!
