Overview

Come with me to discover the secrets of Venice with a different kind of tour that will make you feel like a true Venetian citizen and will help you to get the best of the city during your entire stay.
In addition to the most famous places in Venice (such as San Marco Square and the Rialto Bridge) I will guide you through the most hidden and non-touristic parts of the city where we can analyse its history and its construction. I will focus on architecture and its culture with amusing anecdotes and legendary discoveries. We will take a walk through alleys, bridges and small squares-like observing a part of the city that you probably would not see without getting lost in it. During the excursion I will share my experiences and curiosities to make you feel like home and help you to enjoy your time in the city and the lagoon. You will be able to solve all the curiosities that you have in mind and do not let you sleep at night, I will take care of answering all your questions myself!

    The tour started with rain and ended with sunshine. Nico was the best! He has personality and knowledge for making the tour more than we expected. Great time had by all.

    Wonderful walking tour- picked us up at our hotel and showed us through the winding tunnels on Venice. Showed us great places to eat, drink, visit, and ended the tour right at St Marco’s square (with instruction how to get back ha). Loved the private, intimate tour- our guide was easy to understand, funny and never a dull moment.

    Nico’s tour of Venice was amazing! He went above and beyond! It was like meeting up with a friend. The entire tour was very personable and he knows Venice very well! He showed us some traditional masters at work and provided recommendations for local Venetian cuisine. The best part was the fish market and St. Mark’s Square! The quick gondola ride was the icing on top! Overall a very thoughtful and inclusive experience!
