Veneza Passeios

Consiglio vivamente questo pacchetto turistico a chi desidera esplorare le splendide Dolomiti con una gita di un giorno da Venezia. La nostra guida turistica, Chiara, è stata simpatica e fantastica. Si è assicurata che l'itinerario fosse completato nei tempi previsti e ha fornito interessanti cenni storici per ogni sito che abbiamo visitato. In totale, l'intero tour è durato dalle 8:00 alle 18:30, compresi gli spostamenti verso i luoghi che possono essere impegnativi, ma il nostro autista di autobus, Sergei, ha fatto un lavoro straordinario manovrando lungo il percorso senza far venire la nausea a nessuno, e abbiamo adorato la playlist rilassante!

Albert is very friendly, helpful, and a great driver. He makes the experience much more enjoyable. Some light-hearted jokes go a long way. I would definitely recommend this tour. He stops at the most scenic spots to make sure you get the best pictures for your Instagram. Facebook for the millennials and boomers.

The tour was organized by City Wonders, a local tourist company. The meeting point is clear and easy to find. They sent you email and WhatsApp messages. The tour guide, Phillopo, also a local Venice man, took us to both venues. He was really informative and humorous to follow. The tour is definitely recommended.

El punto de encuentro fue fácil de encontrar. Carlos condujo de manera muy segura y fue meticuloso al registrarse con todos los miembros del grupo. El paisaje es hermoso y vale la pena el viaje.

We booked a day trip from Milan to Venice and overall it was a very good experience. The tour was well organised and easy to follow, making it a convenient way to see Venice within a limited timeframe. As expected with a day trip, time in Venice was quite limited, so the visit felt a bit rushed. However, we still managed to explore key areas and enjoy the unique atmosphere of the city. There was also some free time to browse and shop in the small traditional shop houses, which added a nice local touch to the experience. It is advisable to carry cash when visiting, as some of the smaller shops may not accept card payments. Overall, a worthwhile and enjoyable tour, especially for travellers short on time.

It was basically a self-guided walk after the glass-making demonstration. It wasn't as lively as I had expected, and you can tell that both towns are slowly declining as these traditional artisan industries struggle to survive. In fact, very few young people want to learn these crafts anymore because the work requires years of dedication. In Burano, only about 20 women are said to still possess the traditional lace-making skills. Despite that, the museum is well worth a visit, as it provides valuable insight into the history of Venetian craftsmanship and helps you appreciate these remarkable artistic traditions.

Overall, there are no major drawbacks. Buying a gondola ride here is cheaper than randomly hailing one on the street. A gondola hailed on the street costs 90 euros per ride, so if you just want to experience it, this option is more cost-effective.

There were many groups at the meeting point, and I had to ask each one to find out which was mine. I participated in the three-island tour, and there were many travelers with different itineraries within this group. So, on the way to the second island, pay close attention to the meeting time for your specific plan. If you miss it, you can also ask the staff. On the first island, Murano (Glass Island), you can admire glass craftsmanship and also buy glass art. The second island is Burano (Colorful Island), where we had lunch and took photos with the colorful houses. The third island, Torcello (Cathedral Island), was very peaceful. There was enough time to explore each island, so it didn't feel rushed. The tour guide on the boat explained things diligently, but the boat's noise was too loud, so it was hard to hear, which was a pity. There are two disembarkation points on the return journey, so pay special attention to that as well.

Very good experience. Highly recommended. Our tour guide, Frederica, was really nice and knowledgeable. We had ample time to ourselves. After the must-see activities, were able to explore, eat and shop around.
