Free (or low-cost) guided walking tours in Venice

Have you taken a guided walking tour in Venice that you enjoyed and can recommend? I'm especially interested in a lesser-touristed area, such as Canareggio or ...? I cannot afford a personal (1:1) guide.

I did a two-hour walking tour of Le Marais in Paris five years ago, and honestly it was my favorite activity in the city. I think it cost $20, plus tip. Well worth it.

Not a "tour" per se, but if you download the Rick Steves Audio Europe app onto your phone, you can listen to several walking tours guided through the App as well as listen to interesting interviews about Venice.

I signed up for but did not take two Venice walks with GuruWalks. I had done an all-day day trip to Lipica the day before and needed down time. I ended up just walking around Venice on my own, partly in the area the tours would have gone. If I remember right, the “tip” would have been €25 per walk. https://www.guruwalk.com/
