Venice Greeters
‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎Free Private Walking Tour with a local

Venice
Venice, the city well known for its canals and bridges, built on more than 100 islands in a lagoon, is famous for gondolas, St Mark’s Basilica and the Rialto Bridge, as well as its narrow streets, rich history, Art Biennale and Film Festivals. We invite you to also discover the other side, where you can walk around without the overtourism, admire small details and learn their meaning. Be ready to wear comfortable shoes, get lost in this unique maze and take a rest while tasting something typical

Meet a local volunteer

Our core value #1  reads "Greeters are volunteers, a friendly face for those visiting a city."
It's true: Our Greeters love their city or town and they are proud to share this with guests.
How could you better discover the most interesting spots of a place?

Mini group, maximum six people

Our core value #2 reads "Greeters welcome individuals and may serve small groups of up to six people."
The reason is that each Greet should be an opportunity to talk to each other and that seems impossible in bigger groups.
Also important: we do not mingle people from different requests but serve only you (and your friends).

Free service, no tipping

Our core value #3 reads "Meeting a Greeter is free of charge."
We do not follow a "give what you think is ok (but please give)" strategy. Greeters honestly do not like any tipping because what they give comes from their heart not because of any tipping expectation.
If you would like to support the Greeters as a whole you are welcome to donate to the International Greeter Association here.
