The tour itself was great as was a the gondola ride! Both the guide and the gondolier were very pleasant. Our issue was with the male staff member at your meeting point. Admittedly, we were late for the tour as we had trouble navigating from our cruise ship to the meeting point. When I asked him where we could meet them, he very reluctantly gave me an address for my google maps and sent us on our way WITHOUT THE HEADSET. His complete attitude from the first moment was rude and condescending.

The tour guide never showed up & we were very disappointed. We waited for over an hour & asked 10 different people if that was the correct location & we confirmed we were at the correct address & no guide showed. I would appreciate a refund since we were left abandoned waiting for someone to show up. Very unprofessional! We are very disappointed & I spent good money on a tour that didn't happen. Show

The meeting point wasn't specific. The maps gave us two different locations, so we kept going back and forth trying to find the group. At one point, we were at the right spot 5 minutes before the tour started, but I guess the group left early. The tour guide should’ve had a flag or worn specific clothing. My friend and I are still waiting for a refund.

I took the train up from Florence to spend the day in Venice. The walking tour was quite informative, and our guide was very knowledgeable and quite pleasant she kept us altogether in the crowded streets of Venice. The gondola ride was quite nice. It was a very good way to check out Venice in a day.

Valentina was a wonderful guide. She was very knowledgeable, engaging and easy to understand. We had a lot of fun and I feel like we learned a lot! This was probably my favorite walking tour while traveling Italy! Valentina then took us to meet up with Riccardo, the guide who led us to the Gondola ride. Born and raised in Venice, he really knew his stuff. He was an incredibly intelligent young man who answered all of our questions! He also had a wonderful sense of humor. Thank you Valentina, Riccardo and our Gondolier for a great morning!

Die Tour mit Francesco war super. Durch enge Gassen und kleine Hinterhöfe haben wir viel über Venedig erfahren. Vom Anfang über den Markusplatz bis hin zum Ende bei der Rialtobrücke waren wir gute 2h unterwegs die sich aber nicht so angefühlt haben. Auch die Fahrt danach in der Gondel war ein Erlebnis! Absolut empfehlenswert!

Notre guide était sympathique et intéressante. Le tour de gondole est un must lors d'une première visite à Venise. Nous avons eu un peu de difficultés à trouver le point de rencontre. Nous avions réservé pour 10h croyant que le tour à pied et le tour de gondole étaient l'un après l'autre. Toutefois, le tour de gondole était en après-midi. Par chance, nous avions rien planifié durant l'après-midi. Somme toute, nous avons apprécié notre expérience.

I liked the gondola ride and the guide for that ride. He was speaking English rather well, he was funny, chatismatic and he told us interesting things. However, the walking tour guide, Francesco, didn't have more than a basic knowledge of English. Moreover, he talked partly in Italian and partly in English. So it was not an entirely English speaking guided tour as I expected. For my taste, what he said was rather basic. There were not that many interesting insights or anecdotes into Venetian history,culture and architecture. But he did show us areas of Venice that we would not have found on our own. Overall,a nice experience.

Very interesting to learn more about Venice and it's governance over the ages, especially in light of where we find ourselves in the US these days. Would definitely recommend Headout.

The best thing was the guide. There was punctuality, the boat was very good although it is divided into two parts and one of them has a strong smell of fuel. In Murano you dock at the dock of a glass factory where they give you explanations about the manufacturing and then you have very little time to get to know Murano. Murano I didn't like but I did want to buy little things but there was very little time. Burano was nicer and I liked that the guide did not force us to visit the lace factory where most of the group went.

When we went into the booking it said to "show inclusions &important information". I went into this and scrolled down the bottom and it showed "where" with a map which showed "ponte della libertarian" we spent 2 hours looking for the spot. We finally realised we met near st Marks cathedral. We got our own way over hoping that the tour leader would ring like the lovely girl in Amsterdam did as we were at the back of the place and she asked us to walk around to the front. We were hoping if he rang us we could meet him over there but no phone call so we had to do our own thing. Have used this site before and it was wonderful and easy so a bit disappointed Ted with this.

our tour guides,Cecilia, and Nichola were amazing. They were both well versed and entertaining. They answered all our questions professionally. We got to Marano visited the glass factory, and had time for a quick stroll. Then Burano we were told the meeting point then brought to the lace demonstration, which is definitely beautiful art. Unfortunately it started to rain and got really windy, but the island looks beautiful even in the rain. I would definitely recommend this tour and if you can get Cecilia and Nicola, you will not be disapointed.
