Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"What a perfect introduction to Venice. Lucrezia’s passion for sharing her city with us through stories, curious facts and locations was engaging. It’s things like the early digital clock in the piazza, the specially carved cat water bowls at the town water cisterns and the ugly faces on the church bell towers that have stayed with us as we walk the streets and alleyways. Lucrezia taught us to read the sights and clues we’d normally walk past to bring the history of Venice to life. She was also able to link our movie goers knowledge of Venice to life through pointing out set locations and sights for well known James Bond and Spiderman scenes. Lucrezia’s tips on where to get the best tiramisu, gelato, fresh food, and the best Venetian restaurants to dine at have made us feel a little like seasoned locals. Leading up to our trip Lucrezia helped us understand how to get around with the public transport boats, and at the end of our tour she explained the best way to visit Murano and Burano. Thank you Lu for making our stay in Venice so rich in meaning and experience. "
"We only had a half day to visit and explore the majestic city of Venice, and Lucia was absolutely up to the challenge. She guided us through the traditional attractions with a thorough explanation of the history and culture, and organized our tour with plenty of time to take us into the quiet heart of Venice. We wandered through small neighborhoods to see daily life as the residents live it, with a variety of canals, squares, houses, shops and cafes. Our three-hour tour felt so much longer. She also arranged a ride with our gondolier and personally escorted us on to the gondola to ensure our experience was seamless. "
"Very friendly and knowledgeable about the history of the area. Grew up in Venice. We would highly recommend her!!"

"Valentina was a great guide! She pointed out things of interest that we would have never known or noticed without her guidance and it made our time in Venice so much more meaningful."
"It was easy to meet Elena and from the beginning she came with such enthusiasm and warmth to ensure we had a great time. Elena explained all the areas of Venice and we made a plan where to go, stopping at points of interest along the way. She gave us many local tips (followed up later by sending us links) and such interesting information about Venetian life both past and present. It was a real privilege that she shared her world with us for these few hours and helped us understand why Venice is so unique and special. "
"We had an unforgettable tour of Venice with Loris, our amazing WithLocals guide. He brought the city’s rich history to life — from telling us Venice is shaped like a fish to explaining how it was built to be explored by boat not by foot. We crossed bridges, wandered quiet campos, learned the story behind the eerie plague doctor mask and even discovered that “ciao” has Venetian roots! Loris has a gift for storytelling and knows all the hidden corners that make Venice magical. He also happens to be a sommelier — so we ended with delicious local wine and cicchetti, the perfect Venetian touch. Plus he took fantastic photos of our group throughout the tour! If you're looking for a passionate, knowledgeable and fun local guide, book Loris. You'll see Venice through a whole new lens."
"Genny took me and my daughters (ages 6 and 9) on a great tour of the highlights of Venice and kept them entertained and engaged! My daughters said that she told the most interesting stories about Venice and she really brought history to life for them. Highly recommend Genny!"
"Sarah toured us around a quiet neighbourhood and pointed out things that the locals know and tourists would never see on their own. She’s lived and worked in that community and it was great to see a side of Venice away from all the busy and crowded places. Thank you Sarah! "
"We had a fantastic 3 hour tour with Mateo. He had suggested an hour via boat which gave us a different perspective. Mateos knowledge was endless. He taught us more about the history and architecture than we could have imagined. It was a great experience. "
"We loved our tour with Mina; he was so knowledgeable and we wouldn’t have gotten to know as much about Venice as we did if we hadn’t taken his tour. He’s very kind, patient & generous with his time. He helped us find off-the-beaten path areas to explore. "
