Absolutely amazing. Best guide EVER! From start to finish so much to see and learn. Our guide was a wealth of knowledge
We enjoyed our tour with our guide Michele. He was terrific!
Our guide Ketty was excellent. She was the combination of a history and art expert. She pointed out the symbolism in the architecture and art works. The location for the meeting place was very specific and it was easy to locate the start of the tour. As a bonus, Ketty had laminated photos to show important landmarks in the area which provided context for the location of Venice and St. Mark's.
