Take a bow, folks, this is such a comprehensive and fun look at Venice!

[nlbhaduri]

This is THE MOST HELPFUL video on Venice outside of the ones in Italian….thank you!!

[jeremyrogers]

Brilliant!!! I have to say this was one of the best travel videos I have seen! I'll definitely look out for your other ones! Well done.

The best video about Venice I have seen so far, and I think I have watched them all. Bravo.

[barrcal]

My wife and I our heading next Wednesday for 3 1/2 days. Great guide, thanks so much.

[KJ_KJ_KJ_KJ_KJ]

Thanks! My faith in YouTube guides is mostly lost cause it’s always computer voices, long generic texts on a list of attractions taken from tripadvisor etc etc
Really enjoyed watching this one, snatched a few restaurant suggestions (the most precious types of advice, I’d say)

[carlboscia]

Went 3 times for 7 days always found new areas love it

[peacehappy]

What a professional video! Besides, I love your voice, I can listen it all day. Thank you very much for making all these informative and joyful videos.

[annastyles]

[aksanabates]

[sandramudd]

Found another good channel a very informative as well. Kudos to all talented Brit reporter.

[andyfinn]

What a brilliantly informative video! Thank you so much - you have answered so many questions we had for our upcoming visit in two weeks time! Also, such a relaxed, easy to understand commentary - bravo!

[michaeljohnangel]

What a truly excellent video!!! Thanks! I'm a Brit who has lived and worked in Florence for the last 35 years, and my wife and I used to go to Venice twice a year for a few days (it's much too crowded now). Still, we must go back next year: it's been too long. For us, the Venitian Renaissance paintings are important, particularly those that are still in situ (the Frari, the Scuola San Rocco, the Bellini in the church of San Zaccaria …). My one negative comment on your video is that the gelato you see piled up in the glass counters is full of chemicals: real gelato cannot stand up like that—look for gelato that's not piled up. The difference in taste is astonishing.

Excellent video really helped. One day left here. Wish I had watched before coming.

[dawnneander]

This is excellent. I am off for my 4th trip in 2 years to Venice. I stayed in Murano the first time but staying in Burano for my third time and staying for 3 weeks I love it so much! I also do plein air painting while there...

Great video, we used it to plan our Honeymoon in Venice last week! We ended up doing the DIY Island tour, The secret inanities tour and all the towers off your advice, plus we ate a LOT of Cicchetti! So thankyou for this video. We managed to mostly avoid the tourist trap restaurant but we did get caught out by one unfortunately. We found that the Genuine restaurants tended to have all Italian staff and be further from the water which might help people in the future. We also mangaged to get coffee opposite the Gondola repair shop thanks to your video and it was fantastic.

[MorrisGump]

Massive thanks for putting such a well informed video together!
Very well narrated and explained throughout!

This is certainly my go to video to guide and we very much look forward to our trip 👍🏻👍🏻

We are planning our 5th trip to Venice. Having looked at many videos on YT to catch up on changes, I can say this is the absolute best. It's wonderfully shot and narrated with a great deal of pertinent information. Your bookmarking of chapters and map of sites are brilliant additions. Well done and mille grazie!
