VELTRA tours & activities, fun things to do

the tour itself was very well organised.it nearly got cancelled due to lack of participants but a last minute booking saved the day.The gondola tour was a must do in venice but not actually awe inspiring

The guide was really kind, good and patient woman.

But the tour was bit lengthy and boring.. (we visited on June 7.. it was very sunny and hot that day.. may be because of that we felt too tired)..

Venice can be visited on your own.. no need of any tour package.

For the nice tour guide, we go with 3 stars

It was quite good and the host had plenty of info :) Need individual speakers/headphones to hear better though , and maybe a little rush , especially in the basilica . Gondola was great , loved cruising the waters , would have been good if the driver sang or interacted more with us though . No sights were explained , no singing , which let it down a bit . Also didnt go under the sigh bridge , 'sigh'. Otherwise though good value and worth doing :)

Train was late into Venice so we missed the St Marks walking tour.

Gondola ride was ok, but we had expected some singing and musicians. The Gondlier was lacking badly in personality. We did not enjoy our day to Venice, much much too crowded.

Great guide who was a local knew everything there was to know about Venice, very funny too!! Unfortunately the Basilica was flooded so that was missed, gondola ride was an experience, very quick but you get an understanding of the magic of Venice.
