I'm Isabella B., your private tour guide in Venice
Guide #10648
Ciao! I'm Isabella. Welcome to Venice and my ToursByLocals page! I was born in Padua in 1965 but I've lived in Venice for 40 years. I moved to Venice to attend college and settled down. After graduation in Anglo American literature I worked for the International Movie Festival, at the bookstore of Venice Civic Museums and for a while I devoted myself to teaching. In 1998 I approached tourism and got specialized in cruise excursions. A few years later I became a professional guide and decided to customize tours for private clients. I love food and cooking and that's why when touring I always talk about local specialties and culinary traditions. After many years I still get excited about my adoptive city. I'm very happy when I see people enjoying the time together and get dazzled by Venice beauty! Certified professional guide: Italian National Register of Tourist Guides # 08000034 Tour manager license # 591 (Veneto Region) Port Security Pass # 25231 (Venice Port Authority) Education: University Degree in Anglo-American Literature All my tours can be customized: do not hesitate to contact me! Licensed guides have no restrictions. For tours run on the mainland, I apply to professional drivers.

all ws above average, guide was knowledgeable, Its just that in comparison with another guide ion Venice and also another guide in Florence that I found independently Tours byLocals was double the price. And those other guides were similarly expereinced and knowledgeable. thanks!

August 2026Dear Rebecca, I am sure you know the difference between buying a tour through an agency or directly from a guide. Thanks
Billy B.United States1 week agoIsabella was great. Her knowledge of Venice runs deep, and she was really flexible and helpful throughout the day. Her knowledge of St Mark's in particular was incredible — she walked us through the history, the stories, and the art of the cathedral and made it all come alive. If you want a guide who truly knows Venice, book her. Highly recommend.

August 2026Billy!!!! Thank you. I really enjoyed touring you. It was many hours and a warm weather but the time went fast, great company.

She brought a local’s perspective to life in Venice. The history of how Venice was built and ‘modernized’ over the years. The memorials of the people who were taken in WW2 heart felt. Thank you Isabella!

We and the kids (10 and 14) had a blast with Isabella on a day-long tour. She was able to answer every question knowledgeably, keep the kids engaged, and provide us with great suggestions for further exploration. Many thanks to her - so glad we booked with her.
