Day to remember - Beautiful experience sailing with the Burchiellino sul Brenta between greenery and Venetian villas, much history in the villas visited, only regret the time a little crazy but the arrival in Venice meant that the day ended at the top. Olympia our guide was super as the commander.

Very well. - Nice and characteristic tour or minicruise along stretches of the Brenta, between Padua and Venice (and vice versa, depending on the choices you can make). Please note that the trip could still be affected by several reasons (such as the weather not particularly favorable, any obstacles along the river routes, etc.) so it is recommended to keep in touch with the organization to keep up to date with the forecast.
The minicruise is accompanied by expert guides who throughout the route (it lasts all day from morning to 8:00 from Padua to about 17:30 in Venice), anticipate the contents of the shore visits that are carried out to three beautiful Villas (Pisani, Wildmann, Foscari). In addition, we are told the history of the territory and other Villas that can be observed during the navigation.
It would take a lot more space to delve into the explanations, but the site is complete enough to deepen the curiosities. However, it is absolutely advisable to inquire beforehand about the various methods and times of return, by vaporetto in Venice, then by train or land bus.
The iconic arrival in the lagoon in Venice completes the event, with docking just a few steps from the splendid Piazza San Marco.
Nice experience.

Nice experience - Trip on the Brenta (a navigable arm) with wonderful Venetian Villas overlooking the banks. Long route (I recommend going a little faster in navigation to be able to devote more time to guided tours on land and fascinating with a stop in some Villas; good prepared guides, fairly clean and characteristic ship
Lunch more than positive
I recommend it

Very bad - I couldn't make the navigation on the Brenta because despite the reservation had been made months in advance, two days before they phoned me informing me that everything was canceled due to unspecified maintenance problems. To my request for an alternative (another boat) the answer was that the first availability was in October. I am from Rome and I had gone for a few days to Padua for the ride on the burchiello, so I refused I did the ride in the car. At villa discontent I crossed a boat, however, half empty that was completing its navigation. Zero professionalism!
