Experience the best of
Venice with Withlocals

"Claudia was great and the food tour was a great way to see Venice and take in many of the restaurants. Would highly recommend this tour"

"We had a very informative & fun few hours with Adair recently. The tour was a good mix of historical information & how these events still influence the Venice of today. The kids really enjoyed this tour too as it was engaging for all age groups. Lastly she gave us a good list of proper local frequented restaurants that were indeed quality and a step above the usual tourist focused places."

"Our tour of the Venice Islands with Claudia was excellent. At a relaxed pace, Claudia provided a very informative commentary throughout. She arranged the order of visiting the islands to visit each when crowds were least, which made the tour even better. We loved the visits to the selected lace shop and museum and the glass blowing, which were both unique in the breadth of their products and displays, and also very informative on their craft. Claudia is a passionate Venetian and a great tour leader. We highly recommend her."

"We spent a delightful and delicious evening with Giada. As well as enjoying some great food and wine we learned so much about Venetian culture ( both food related and more generally) Giada (whose English is perfect by the way) also gave us some great tips for the rest of our stay in Venice."

"Loris was an excellent guide for The 10 Tastings of Venice tour. He was personable, knowledgeable, and did a great job tailoring the experience to our needs. We enjoyed trying a wide variety of Venetian foods and would rate him very highly."

"Marina was superb she gave us history of the foods and culture. She was not the slightest hesitant to substitute when someone in our party didn’t care for something. I loved her enthusiasm, and obvious love of her city. I would totally recommend her as your guide. Marina also gave us ideas for places to eat and visit. Loved everything. "

"On the morning my tour was booked with Nicoletta there was a transportation strike. Nicoletta overcame all the difficulties this caused as she had to travel from the mainland to our meet up point, and we eventually met up an hour later than planned. She then proceeded to give me a tour of all the special places she knew and loved. It was a most enjoyable and interesting experience. Nicoletta was so open and friendly throughout the tour even after having such a stressful time trying to get to our meeting. Thank you Nicoletta! "

"We had such a wonderful experience on this food tour. She was incredibly personable, funny, and had a great sense of how to read the room — knowing when to share information, when to let us enjoy the moment, and how to keep everything feeling natural and relaxed. Her recommendations were fantastic, and everything felt authentic rather than scripted or forced. I’m naturally pretty social and immediately enjoyed talking with her, but what really stood out was how comfortable she made my significant other feel as someone who usually doesn’t enjoy small talk or talking to new people. She made conversation feel easy and genuine from the start. Honestly, it felt more like spending time with a friend who was excited to show us around than being on a formal tour. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a fun, genuine, and memorable experience."

"Roberto was a pleasant and knowledgeable guide. Very passionate and informative about his home Venice"

"If we could give Alexandra more stars - we would! She was an engaging guide and was so patient. She accommodated our group of 8 which is larger than her regular group size of 6. She introduced us to great food, wine and parts of Venice we would not have seen but for Alexandra. If you have a chance to book with Alexandra, do it! We had a grand time"
