Hi to all the tourists out there who are excited to get to know more about my hometown of Venice. I'm licensed tour guide, I've been doing walking tours for seven years, and I was born and raised in Venice.
Over this period, I have met people from many different cultures and had the chance to share some of Venice's most beautiful places and many of it's hidden secrets. I have enjoyed the experience so much, that I have earned over 250 5-star reviews on TripAdvisor for my tours in Venice.
Francesco is a great guide, he has lots of knowledge and expertise in history, arts and general culture. It was so interesting to walk through the backstreets of Venice (avoiding the most tourist spots) and we got to know the city better, in its real essence. One of the best tour we have ever done!
Francesco is knowledgeable and personable. He showed us 6 of the 7 districts, skipping only St. Marks, which is rightfully a separate tour. The pace was comfortable, but not too slow. We stopped for a snack and restroom use. Many people along the way greeted Francesco. Bring your camera and wear comfortable shoes. And don't forget the 2 Euros for the gondola ride across the river.
We were surprised how different the city of Venice can be. Great experience with a lovely guide. Loved his approach and character he put into the tour. Well done Backstreet Boy!
Very good tour. Highly recommended.
