The tour with Lucia was amazing. After taking us to the Gallery of Academia and taught us a lot of history of art, Lucia walk us through the heart of Dorsoduro and showed us a few secrets of the city. Always with a smile on her face, she also gave us some great tips for the rest of our stay. We definitely recommend everyone to book a walking tour with Lucia. Good value for money.

We had a fantastic time touring around Venice with Lucia. She was very accomodating, reaching out already in advance and trying to provid us with the best experience possible by adapting the tour to our personal interests. For the tour she came well prepared and ready to answer all our questions. Lucia knows so much more about the different details and meanings displayed in art works or on buildings than you would find in a standard printed tour guide, along with her excitement and passion it was a real treat discovering Venice with her and we can highly recommend her.

Lucia was very open on our communication prior to our tour at the Gallerie dell’ Accademia. She graciously accommodated our request to focus the tour on the artwork at the Accademia. She met us punctually and with an amazingly friendly greeting. She first showed us some images of Venetian artwork to describe the differences in the modern-day buildings as she described some historical information about the Accademia. She has lived in the US for a number of years and her English is perfect. Once we entered the Gallerie Lucia’s extraordinary passion and vast knowledge about Venetian art, culture and history became apparent instantly. She had meticulously planned the sequence of paintings and artwork to view with us. She pointed out many aspects and details in the paintings while she provided an in-depth commentary about the painter and their art. Lucia has a strong connection with the Venetian art and brings it to life. Lucia was very willing to answer any question that we had. She kept the pace of the tour coordinated with our desires. The 2.5 hours in the Gallerie was an amazing experience and we are so grateful to Lucia for becoming a friend while she shared her knowledge as we explored the art collection with her. We highly recommend Lucia as your next tour guide. An Amazing Venetian Art Experience with Lucia
