Unforgettable Venice from Rovinj

Great communication, clear instructions, engaging and informative explanations from the guides. Although travel time is considerable, some of it (approach through the lagoon, water bus transfers) itself forms part of the experience. Included lunch was superb, great value. Areas to improve: greater clarity in advance about the add-ons, their cost and the need for cash; warnings that if you wish to visit St Marks Basilica you need to book in advance - very sad not to be able to see the interior.

Amazing experience, Venice well worth the visit. We booked beat the queue tickets to get into St Marks Basilica which was well worth a visit and got us out the sweltering heat. We booked water taxi and gondola tickets which was well worth the money. As expected a lot of tourists, the further away you walk from St Marks Square the cheaper things become.

From the minute we stepped on the catamaran we felt well informed. All the staff were very helpful. The guides were great. We took all the extras and everything went like clockwork and we felt like we got to experience a taste of Venice in the very short time we had.

We had a fantastic day. Transfers from our hotel went smoothly. Great guides from the catamaran company. We had about 6 hours in Venice. Once we were on the catamaran we were offered ‘add ons’ which we took up- transfers by water taxi to and from the port, lunch and a gondola ride. Some people were more adventurous than us and made their own way around. It is a long day but worth it.

We loved our trip to Venice from Rovinj. I would have liked to know more about the facilities on the boat in advance. I would also have liked to know that there are optional extras (lunch, gondola, boat trips, guided tour) because we would have planned our day around those in advance if we'd known. Also the transfer back to the hotel from the boat was a bit chaotic (Rovinj gets very busy by the harbour in the evenings).

You should mention it’s 6hrs travelling on the sea And also the costs for transfers from boat to centre before booking so people can make a decision and not get trapped into spending more money than they budgeted for.
