While we enjoyed a traditional tour of Venice proper, seeing sites just outside of Venice was great as well. And Rocco is a well-informed and enjoyable guide.

I've been living in Venice's area since I was 7 years old, and the years spent here gave me the time to know even little details in Venice and to develop a love for this city. My History degree gave me knowledge which I'm prepared to share with you, and I'll take you back to the past as we explore Venice's highlights and secret zones, as well the zones around Venice (Padua, the Brenta River. . . ). My greatest passion is to discover new stories and to tell them in the most relaxed way. Do you want to hear funny, scary or emotional stories? Or all of them? Do you need to find the perfect place to enjoy a break? I'm your guy. My strenghts are patience, friendliness and humor. See you in Venice! History degree at Venice's University Ca' Foscari and national tour guide license (Modena, nr. 335) None.

Visit a medieval city and discover by bus the Villas in the Brenta River
Overview of your Venice tour
Half an hour from Venice there's a lot to see. Discover with me the hidden treasures of Padua, a city more ancient and yet more lively than Venice. Unmissable basilicas, a surprising palace, medieval atmospheres, the local food, the famous Pedrocchi café, beautiful squares. . . you won't forget Padua! Not only that: east to Padua there's the Brenta river with its hundreds of Villas. We will visit one of them, see how the venetian nobility spent their summer holidays and we will experience a little town on the river. No crowds, no chaos. Just enjoyment away from the radar. Let me show you the treasures I love the most! I'll make sure to make you discover beauties you will remember.

Roko was fantastic! Best guide we have ever had!!!! Very knowledgeable and very sensitive to our needs! Could answer any historical question. Truly passionate about what he does! Outstanding job! Highly recommend!!!

I retained Roko over 2 ½ days and found him to be reliable and good company. As you might expect from a professional guide, I benefitted from his deep knowledge of Venice...and its surrounding area. Essential for popular, historic centres. I particularly appreciated his proactive approach, not holding back in shaping my itinerary - suggesting the best places to visit - and places I never considered. He adapted the pace and itinerary to suite me and my interests. No hesitation is retaining him again.

Rook did a great job for us. He is very knowledgeable also flexible to adjust to changes we wanted to make to our itinerary. I would hire him again if back in Venice.
