What to expect
Your guide will point out details most visitors miss—the way light catches a façade, why a bridge was built where it stands, which cafés serve actual Venetians. Expect a conversational pace rather than a march from sight to sight. You'll stand in St Mark's Square without feeling rushed, then wander quieter streets where the city reveals itself more honestly. The guide answers questions as they bubble up, treating your curiosity as the heart of the experience.
