Alessandro was such a great host. He went the extra mile to make sure we had a wonderful experience in Venice. His tips about where and when to go to certain sites were invaluable. We so appreciated his knowledge as a local of the best places to go to see (and not see) and places to eat. His instructions were detailed and so helpful in making our way to his place. He was there to meet us on the boat when we arrived and then gave us all the instructions we needed to easily make our way around the city. His home is lovely, clean and very much suited our liking. He tended to us well in the mornings for breakfast with great local pastries. He also makes a wonderful latte! We would highly recommend Alessandro and his home for anyone looking to enjoy Venice for a great getaway! Tom
