Dennis kept the pace comfortable while showing us the city's most iconic landmarks, as well as hidden gems off the beaten path. Along the way, he shared fascinating insights about Venice’s history, daily life, and good places to eat. The tour was well-organized and stayed right on schedule, with plenty of time for photos and questions. It was a fantastic way to see Venice, get some exercise, and learn something new. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting Venice!”
