Great experience visiting the islands near Venice! - We had a wonderful time on this excursion! The lovely boat ride to the islands was a highlight. Our guide Elenora was knowledgeable, fun and friendly. It was just my husband and I, so they totally customized the day the way we wanted. We loved seeing the Murano glass being made, and bought a gorgeous vase. We had a lovely lunch and wine on Burano island. Highly recommend this experience!

Scenic and cozy - Eleanora was our guide and she was wonderful! You have the option to go to Torcello, Murano, and Burano or just two. She customized the tour for us based on our interests. The glass blowing and lace making tours were informative and very interesting but not long. This gave you time to wander around the island/gift shops for a bit. It is about a 4 hour tour. You can be picked up by private water taxi at your hotel but have to be dropped off at a main drop off site outside of the canals (i.e., Rialto entrance of the grand canal, train station, or San Marco square). Overall a great tour experience and a wonderful guide - worth the cost!

A great way to spend a day in Venice! - Selena was a great guide. She brought us to Murano to see the glass blowing. Very interesting but very very expensive to buy. Then onto beautiful Burano. The colorful houses and the peaceful atmosphere was a nice break from Venice! Thanks Selena for making our trip so enjoyable!

Awesome. - This was absolutely marvelous! It was a totally private tour and the guy was so wonderful. We had the boat to ourselves and they were so funny and nice. The glass museum tour was also absolutely excellent. I can’t recommend this enough.
