Quality Verified Registered on August 20, 2020

Hey there! I’m Davide and I live here in Venice. I’m a friendly and open-minded guy who is simply in love with his city. That’s why I’m here. I want to share with you the experience of the real Venice as lived daily by its locals and not only the tourist trail. Together, we will see famous sites, but also the hidden and authentic sides of the city. Thanks to traveling I understand how important it is to know different cultures and life-styles, so that’s why I proposed myself as a guide. I hope you will enjoy the city as much as I do. ;)

Tour description

“When I seek another word for ‘music’, I never find any other word than ‘Venice’.” (Friedrich Nietzsche) This tour not only will provide you with the chance to visit the beautiful art, architecture, and treasures of the city with a local, but also to fall in love with Venice as I did the first time. We will start from one of the most wonderful and unique squares in the world: San Marco Square. Here we will get the chance to admire the splendor of Basilica of Saint Mark, Doge Palace, and the Bridges of Sighs. Our walk will continue to the gorgeous La Fenice Theatre (the Opera House) and to the harmonic Rialto Bridge, from which we will get an amazing and unforgettable view on the Grand Canal. Here we will glimpse at the Fondaco dei Tedeschi, the residence of germans. The tour will end with a must see-gem: the colourful Jewish Ghetto in Cannaregio! So what are you waiting for? Apply for the next tour!

We were the 10 mins early and search for 25 mins, finally giving up 15 mins after the tour should have started. Very disappointing!

The tour was very informative and Davide was very knowledgeable about the history of Venice and was patient enough to answer all our questions. We had a great time and ate the best ice cream which was the cherry on top. Would highly recommend it to anyone going to Venice.

The tour guide Davide did a great job! I saw on him how he was passionate about what he was doing. He toured me in some interesting spot in Venice. I recommend it.

Davide is a very friendly guy with tons of interesting Stories about the Serenissima. You can ask him anything - he will have an answer. It rained Cats and dogs but Davide was still going strong! All best Hasso , Catherine and Buz
