“I know people have mentioned that it is difficult to find where you pick up your tickets. We read the directions and other comments people left and it was super helpful. You pick up the tickets at the Venice Tours shop. It is very small, but the staff was super helpful, patient, and kind. We also used google maps by clicking the link in the confirmation and with those two pieces it was easy to find. The staff also explain how to download the app using their free Wi-Fi service. Just make sure you give yourself enough time to do so. This was a great experience.”
