About Tour Guide Massimo T.
My name is Massimo, but everybody knows me as Max. I was born in Gorizia in 1961. I moved to Venice in 1983 to study languages and literature at the Ca' Foscari Venice University and graduated in 1989.
My love for Venetian Art and History led me to become a licensed tour guide in 2009.
I'm married and have one daughter.
I offer private tours through the city for groups and families. It will be a pleasure for me to show you my city, to envolve you with Venetian histories discovering some secret places.
If you wish, you can write to me so that I can organise a tour in Venice that is best suited to your wishes and needs.

St. Mark's Square, the heart of Venice
If you are visiting Venice for the first time, you must start from St. Mark's Square: the heart of the Serenissima. Here lies its power, its wealth and its splendour. Different architectural styles blend harmoniously, from Venetian-Byzantine to Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and Neoclassical. We visit St Mark's Basilica, the religious and spiritual centre of Venice. Then we go to the Palazzo Ducale, the government centre of the Serenissima.

St. Mark's Square and hidden Venice
St. Mark is one of the six sestieri of Venice, lying in the heart of Venice. The St. Mark sestiere, originally called Rivoalto, from which comes the name Rialto, is the original nucleus of the city. The heart of this sestiere is St. Mark's Square, which for almost a thousand years was the political and judiciary center of the Venetian Republic.

Riccardo R.
Hi, I'm Riccardo, born in the USA and raised in Italy. I specialize in wine tastings, a passion I've pursued for nearly ten years. As a certified sommelier with the Italian Sommelier Association, I curate wine tastings featuring Prosecco, Amarone Valpolicella and Soave. My tours stand out because they are always private and I exclusively select family-run wineries. We'll never rush. My motto is "Drink well, to live well"

Roberto V.
Hello everyone! My name is Roberto and I am ready to be your host and go with you to discover the very true side of Venice. I was born, raised up and living in Venice since 1957.... I have been knowing and loving Venice for more than half a century now. After being a concierge in the most famous hotels in Venice, I went for a change and took my licenses for both tour leader and environmental guide. I will certainly be able to show you how we live in Venice now and how we used to live in Venice some years ago...well, yes, I am old enough to do it! I am a true Venetian and I have a sort of warranty certificate for this... I mean for being a true Venetian. Because the family was a well known noble family in Venice that also gave Venice a doge...and who was the doge? Ehiiiiiii I cannot tell you everything now! Book a tour with me and you’ll discover!
