“David enhanced My Trip”
David enhanced my trip because not only did he have extensive knowledge about Venice, he was also enthusiastic about sharing his knowledge. He was also highly responsive to my needs, and did his best to accommodate me. David has an engaging personality, and is one of the most warm and caring people I have ever met. I had a wonderful time in Venice because of David.

“Unforgettable James Bond Experience in Venice”
We booked the James Bond Moonraker tour in Venice with Al, and it was truly the highlight of our trip. From the very first moment, Al’s enthusiasm, deep knowledge of both Bond films and Venetian history, and his engaging storytelling made the tour unforgettable. He brought the movie scenes to life right in front of us, pointing out filming locations, sharing fascinating behind-the-scenes facts, and weaving them together with anecdotes about the city’s culture and architecture. Al was patient and adapted the pace perfectly for us. His passion for the subject is contagious, and his friendly personality made it feel more like being shown around by an old friend than by a guide. If you’re a Bond fan—or simply want to see Venice from a unique and exciting perspective—this tour with Al is an absolute must. Highly recommended!
