<p>Don't spend the extra money and hire a private car. Our driver didn't say anything at all on the ride coming or going. I was really thinking he would give us some kind of information on the area we were passing through. The guide Ornellia? was very good. She did give us all of the highlights in the two hour walking tour. Next time I'd take the train from Florence and hire a private guide on my own.</p>

<p>The tour was a bit challenging. The crowds, of course not the tours fault, where just over whelming and I'm not sure it's a good idea to leave the clients in a piazza there and not bring them back to the starting point. Betweeen the very small alleys and the massive crowds we had a hard time finding our way back to our driver. then to add to the mess a down pour of a thunderstorm. <br/> But all in all we enjoyed our tour</p>

<p>Although it was brutally hot, this was a fabulous tour because of a wonderful driver Carlo and an amazingly knowledgeable guide Mila who efficiently navigated all seven of us through the several districts of Venice despite the crowds and the heat. She even recommended a fabulous place for lunch. This was the magical tour of Venice cue music!.</p>

<p>The private transfer was simply worth it and our driver Luca was amazing. We had a local guide in Venice she was nice but quite boring overall. We had a great lunch recommendation from the local guide.</p>

Why this scores 45
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Venice Tour: Landmarks & Hidden Gems with Caffè Florian: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Venice.
How much does Private Venice Tour: Landmarks & Hidden Gems with Caffè Florian cost?
+
Prices start at $59 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Venice usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Venice Tour: Landmarks & Hidden Gems with Caffè Florian take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Venice is not rushed.
Is Private Venice Tour: Landmarks & Hidden Gems with Caffè Florian worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 45 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.9/5 across 19 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Venice, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Venice Tour: Landmarks & Hidden Gems with Caffè Florian?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Private Venice Tour: Landmarks & Hidden Gems with Caffè Florian suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Venice Tour: Landmarks & Hidden Gems with Caffè Florian?
+
Around 7 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Venice can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Venice and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Venice Tour: Landmarks & Hidden Gems with Caffè Florian start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Venice within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Venice?
+
On Outty we rank every Venice experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Pasta and Tiramisu Cooking Class with Wine in Venice, Eating Venice Small Group Food & Drinks Tour, Venice Bacaro Food Tour: Eat and Drink like a Venetian. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Venice?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Venice?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
