⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Great circus memories
The Venice Circus tour was interesting and informative. Our tour guide, Bob, really knows the circus history well and relates it in an enthusiastic way. There are not many circus remnants still remaining, but Bob brings a lot of it to life through memories. The circus train car is also fun to visit as is the train station. Venice is a beautiful town that still has some Florida charm of yesteryears. Well worth your time. — Trish H. (Jan 2025)
