Great family Venice tour with Sabrina

Had a great family tour with Sabrina and it was well suited for our family, including our 6 year old daughter. The tour guide went out of her way to engage our daughter and keep her entertained. Otherwise, it may have been difficult doing the tour. Tour guide was knowledgeable and able to answer all our questions. Would recommend to anyone looking for a family oriented tour that’s calibrated so everyone can learn something about Venice!
