The 1/2 day was very nice 👍. Not enough time to visit Murano 30 minutes because you visit the glassworks and just 1 hour for Burano which is very colorful 👌. The only downside is that we pick you up in Saint Marco next to the Taxi boats in front of the Royal Garden BUT we take you back further, a 35 minute walk from the Square. otherwise quality/price it's worth it (18€)!

Overall it was good, perhaps we would need more time to visit better and with alma Burano which is really beautiful. I wasn't crazy about the idea of them putting everyone on the boat even though there were no more seats.
