Everything was wonderful and we so appreciated Emmanuele's extra touch of making us feel welcome and sharing specific ideas, places and restaurants to step right into our explorations of Venice. Particularly because parts of the city are overwhelmed with tourists at this time of the year, and there are many touristy restaurants at that don't feel authentic to the city, the warm welcome and multiple local recommendations that he provided helped us find some wonderful places. Emmanuele sincerely made us feel welcome and we had a beautiful, safe, clean home base with the apartment. Emmanuele responses for any questions we had were warm, thorough, and always helpful He definitely went above and beyond!
