Amazing!

Our guide was excellent, she gave very interesting facts about both Doge's palace and St. Mark's. Being able to skip the lines was great!

Amazing!

My friends and I did a guided tour of the Colosseum with Francesco in June 2022. He was organised and made the whole process easy and straightforward for us all. The tour was interesting and very informative.

Francesco is outgoing, funny and an extremely nice guy so 5 stars from us!!!

Good!

Tour of basilica was short. Did not go near the altar. Saw some of the mosaics. Hard to hear the guide through the head set. Doges palace was very detailed. Many stairs to climb. Interesting to cross bridge of sighs.
