First Time Italy

The walking tour and tour guide were good. The gondola ride was only 20 minutes, told it would be 30. Ride was relaxing but too short.

Very poor / dull

Well, it started out as we had October 14 plan for our walking tour as we were waiting for the tour to start. We overheard another couple that booked for the wrong day. They were on the next day and they were leaving Venice so we decided to give up our tickets so they could join the tour on the 14th and we took their spot on the 15th. It backfired bc our tour guide was not very good. Very dulll not engaging and Chat GPT could have done a better job.
