The trip to Venice in March was a 10 out of 10. Everything was planned well by Mike from the pick up at my door through air travel, transfers and hotels and back to my door. The knowledge of Venice that Mike has enabled the group to visit the best locations for our photographic workshop. He is a very knowledgeable professional photographer who gladly goes over and above with advise to ensure we come away with quality images from our trip.
