This was a good tour, just could've been organized a bit better._br/_ But if you want to get a glimpse of Venice in just one day, this probably one of the best ones out there.

If you dont want to take all the burden to organize yourself the trip, this is a good solution. It gives you a good idea and you can spend some time enjoying Venice. But its no more than that. I read previous reviews and I was expecting more of this trip, unfortunately I was a little disappointed. First the bus, its not very comfortable, leg room as in a plane and the bus pretty much basic. For almost 7 hours you are confined in it, it is not what it should be. The second big disappointing was the Murano glass factory. The time you spent in Venice is limited due to the long driving, so spending almost 1 hour to get to the factory and listen to the selling speech to make you buy expensive glasses its a waste of time. I think this is really unfair from the organizers to take precious time, in order to get this selling speech, almost as a timeshare scam. We were not impressed with the Venice guide, but in the end overall we still think it was good we took this trip.

Venice was a once in a lifetime experience. The bus ride was super comfortable and the guide was great. The only downfall was that the headset kept shutting off during the walking tour of Venice, which was quite annoying. We really enjoyed the gondola ride though. Highly recommend if you visit Venice.

Wonderful day trip to Venice. The tour guide was very knowledgable and provided a good general overview. We were only about 12 people so it was a nice small group.

Outstanding! Perfect day trip to get introduced to Venice. Our city guide was very knowledgeable and not only showed us the major attractions, but also a few hidden gems. Her advice on where to have lunch was spot on. Very glad we took this excursion!

The trip to Venice from Milan was really good, and the guides were very knowledgeable about Venice. The use of the headphones so that you can hear the guide while walking through the streets was helpful. A little bit of an unexpected hiccup on the way back when one of the rest stops was closed and we had to proceed to the next stop. Other than that, everything else was great.

Liked the tour and the guide. The bus ride is not 2:30, it’s 3:45. Also would of liked to have a better tour of Venice, felt the tour was just walking around, would of liked to see more of Venice. Overall was happy I went

We were very lucky as we took this tour mid December and the weather was very kind to us. We were told that in the Summer, Venice can be overcrowded with visitors but not so much in December. We got the wonder around without too many crowds and even got a good discount via the guide for our gondola ride which just completed a brilliant day. Highly recommended.

Tour was well organised and we had ample time to roam around on our own and explore Venice. The guide even arranged for our gondola trips.
Review by: winder, November 2017
The tour was well managed and allocated enough time for a guided segment as well as ample time for personal sightseeing. The guide also helped us arrange for gondola rides.

After warnings from friends about Venice being an expensive tourist trap, I opted to visit the city, for one day only, from Milan. I chose Zani Viaggi for my trip because of their wonderful reviews, convenient meeting place, and price. I was not disappointed. The bus was clean and comfortable, there was a bathroom break mid-trip, a prearranged boat excursion, a designated Venice tour leader and admission to a glass blowing demonstration all included. I opted to pay extra for the gondola ride and you should too. You're in Venice! Why not?

Great Experience! Wish i had more time in Venice. My tour guide was perfect!

Venice is a unique and interesting city and a must to see when visiting Italy. This day trip is a good way to have a glimpse of Venice when your have a limited time in Italy. The glass-making workshop should have been made optional because we often encounters this on our other North American city tours. The time spent should have been used to have more time exploring the shops and try the authentic restaurants on the Piazza. The Gondola rides is a good experience but a long wait and too limited - unlike in most Venetian Hotels worldwide, expect no singing from Gondoliers in Venice. Lastly,Venice is said to be a Tourist oriented city but, you could hardly find a garbage bin and sitting area to enjoy the beauty of St. Mark Square. Use of public washroom is also quite expensive- 1.50 Euro per visit.

Great trip, but soooo much to do in one day. It was a great way to get acquainted with the city, but I would've loved more time to wander around. But the suggested gondola tour was great as was the tour around the city. I never think it's useful to visit the artisans, but seeing the glass maker was pretty cool. Overall a good tour!
