Be sure to be the first in the boat to get a seat in the rear, otherwise you may have to sit inside in which case this tour would have a much lower rating. The whole point of this tour is to see and experience a ride on the canals, which sitting inside makes difficult. The tour itself was very pleasant. We saw many of the major sites from the boat, including little known areas that I visited by foot the next day. The guide was very professional and knowledgeable; in fact he was a native Venetian! This is a good and less expensive way to see Venice by boat (rather than a gondola), but again, make sure you get in first and get a seat in the stern!
