Reviews
Was very pleased with the fact that either they were kind enough to wait for us for we got lost or late. The group was in a waiting room most playing with VR wear. Taken out to Gonfola, thing is never got to go through bridge of sighs, being that I was late I didn’t want to ask or complain about it!
Fantastic opportunity!! Massimiliano is an expert teacher! We watched. He walked us through the process. We were hands on during a simulation. Then, woth guided help, we created our masterpieces. I came away with a pair of earrings- a twisted icicles for each ear. Im thrilled! The highlight of our experience in Venice!
Ao chegarmos na agência fomos atendindos com certa rispidez! Haviam 2 mulheres atendendo e com pouca simpatia. Chegamos 30 min antes do passeio e pediram pra retornar faltando 15 min, aproveitamos para ir ao banheiro e beber uma água no restaurante ao lado. No retorno nos deram a identificação e uma atendente loira pediu para eu ir até o local de encontro, sai da agência e não entendi muito bem, quando voltei para confirmar e ainda pedir desculpar porque não havia entendido por não falar a língua deles, ela saiu do seu posto rispidamente me falou: MADAME, Go to the gallery! Fiquei sem reação na hora! Além disso nos deram 2 fones que não estavam funcionando para tradução para o português (nossos fones não foram trocados e passamos o passeio sem a tradução). O passeio em si foi bem legal! Fomos com um outro casal na mesma gôndola, a única coisa chata foi o mal acolhimento de atendentes que deveriam ter mais simpatia pelos turistas já que estamos pagando bem caro!
