Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"We had the lovely Lucia show us around Venice. The kids, aged 9 & 11, put this as a top highlight of the trip. Lucia was passionate, knowledgable and kept the kids engaged in the 2.5hr tour. We adults also had fun and learnt a bit too. We added in the mask making activity at they end which they loved and allowed hubby and me to go have a appertivo sans kids - close by, which was also very nice. Highly recommend."
"After having travelled through Rome and Florence to Venice, this was my girls, favourite all because of Lucia’s insightful, fun tour. She managed to engage all three of my girls, including my teenagers. Thank you so much Lucia for making this the perfect tour for adults and children. We appreciate the restaurant recommendation as. "
"Valerio was timely, fun, friendly, knowledgable, hit all the key points and was relaxed in the process- trusted us as a group. He’s great in many languages. I avoid tours at all costs as i dont being told where to look, where to step, what not to touch, etc but this tour was very enjoyable and a fun quick way to meet some people that are also having fun in your same area! :D"
"A great tour courtesy of Valerio. Many guides introduce themselves and then it's off to reciting a script of facts. Valerio was nothing like that. He took the time to engage with each member of our group directly and, being a current resident of Murano, ensured we had a less touristic adventure. We thoroughly enjoyed seeing the different glass work techniques from independent female artisans. And that 12th century Byzantine church is a must see even for those who are not religious."

"My family and I just loved the experience of the tour with Valerio, it was fun, interesting, complete, friendly. Everything we expected and more. Totally recommended for adults or families with children. "
"From the moment we met Lucia she was friendly and very attentive to our four children. The kids had a fantastic time. Lucia had the kids really engaged with the ‘treasure hunt’ and it was clear they were having lots and lots of fun, even our 3 year old got really stuck in! - Lucia really has a natural way with children and they really enjoyed her company! The tour was really informative for the children and for us! I think without Lucia we could only enjoy the outside beauty of Venice but actually it has so many hidden gems and history which Lucia shared with us. The kids ended with an exclusive workshop session to make masks, we were comfortable to leave them with Lucia and safiyya (from the workshop) while we enjoyed some quiet time and a coffee in a nearby cafe. I would highly recommend a tour with Lucia to all friends and family visiting Venice! Lucia is definitely a Friend in Venice! "
"We had a great time with Lucia. This was a marvellous way to discover Venice very intertaing with kids and full of fun facts and interesting historical facts about the city. Great to share It through the eyes of a real Venizian. Highly recommended "
"We took the Magical Venice tour in June. Lucia is friendly, knowledgeable and fun! She really made it a unique experience for our 9 year old niece. She shared lots of history and introduced us to talented artists. My niece made a mask at the end of the tour and it was a once in a lifetime experience! Lucia and the artists spent extra time with her and we couldn't be happier with our time together."
"Having already visited several Italian cities throughout our holiday, I decided to book with Lucia to get an understanding of Venice on our first day in the city. All the guides on withlocals sounded great and luckily, I ended up booking a family experience with Lucia. For the children and myself, this tour with Lucia was a highlight in Italy. Lucia's historical knowledge was brilliant and she related interesting facts that the children (13, 11 and 5) found relevant. She also knew all the quiet \"calles\" and out of the way \"campos\"; one of our stops had the most incredible view of the grand canal. As well as being knowledgeable, Lucia was warm and attentive and managed to keep everyone's attention engaged simultaneously. The children absolutely adored her and my 5 year old has plans to marry her in the future... The children also loved the mask making workshop with Sofia. Sofia took such time and care with our masks; her passion and knowledge of the theatre were clear and we learned a great deal at her quaint workshop. Her work is beautiful and we really loved her studio. After braving it alone on day 2, I tried to book another withlocals tour for day 3, but all the experiences we wanted were unfortunately already reserved. If we're ever in Venice again, we'd love to have Lucia as our guide. Thanks to her and Sofia, I don't think we could have had a better start to our Venetian adventure! "
"A wonderful tour around a quieter part of Venice with a treasure hunt and gelato - finished with a mask workshop. A truly special tour with a wonderful homemade gift. Naomi adored it - and Lucia & Sophia (from the mask making shop!). I cannot recommend this tour enough."
