Venice islands half day trip

All aspects of the trip were very good. The Virtual Reality experience at the beginning was great, the boat trip with the guide’s commentary was really interesting. Murano glass blowing was fascinating and we had time for a stroll to see part of the island. Burano was simply beautiful and there was plenty of time to explore and to sit down for some lunch. Overall an excellent experience with a great guide and good value for money. I would highly recommend it to anyone

Meeting point was clear. Our guide was very thoughtful and outgoing, making sure that everybody felt at ease. I would recommend this cruise. Seeing Burano + Murano is enough. Even if Torcello is also beautiful, it would lengthen the trip and might be redundant. We saw an impressive glass blowing demonstration in Murano (-20% off in the shop), I only wish we had time to stroll in the island (we only stayed on the island for the demonstration).

The trip was in a beautifully restored fishing boat - a picture perfect way to spend several hours exploring the other islands. Watching glass blowing on Murano was fascinating, but you do need to be strong to resist the underlying pressure to spend money in the shop afterwards. Burano with its colourful houses was simply stunning and Torcello was so peaceful, it seemed to offer the perfect escape from the pressures of our busy lives. Our guide was charming and unobtrusive - I would definitely recommend this as a great way of exploring the smaller islands.

I thought the trip was very good... it was quite bouncy and there was a long wait in the queue before boarding but the guys were brilliant at getting everyone on and off the boats. The trip itself wasn't very long, but the singer and the accordion were audible across all the gondolas and the journey through the grand canal followed by a number of smaller canals was very good. Everyone who heard the singing or accordion music was smiling and waving and even some danced by the side of the river - overall a very good vibe - feel good trip. Glad we did it.

Great guide and the islands of Murano and Burano were magnificent!

We had a wonderful time visiting both islands! The guides were very knowledgeable, helpful, and responsible. Definitely recommend this tour.

Boat ride pleasant Not enough time given at glass blowing in our opinion Lace making interesting again not enough time Note that it says tour is 4.5 hours That does not include the boat ride return so add another 35-40 to your day

Superb experience! Our guide was very informative and the little gondola ride was very enjoyable. Very good value for money!

It started 10 m-minutes late, but there were also 10 minutes longer, sometimes you say two, sometimes four and sometimes six people in one gondola, more than ten gondolas went from the main canal to a side canal and then it went back there, the singers and the instrument players you could hear the gondola took turns so that everyone could enjoy it) was far away of course you couldn't bike that much so 50 percent music guarantee

The gondola ride could be a little longer But we really appreciated the guide

Loved the extra time in beautiful Burano. Feel like me and my partner got good experience seeing both islands.

Very well organized. Despite the fact that it was raining, it was possible to enjoy each stage, guided tour and gondola ride. The guide, excellent.

Very worthwhile. Had a very good English speaking guide on a 1 hour canal tour of Venice with a group of 5 people. Highly recommended!

Overall very good. A bit chaotic when the guide was trying to organise a group of about 50 people onto the gondolas though.

Luckily we were in the same boat as the musicians and it was the best part of our Italy trip

Boat trip along the Grand Canal in a small group of around 8 people! Very friendly guide, explains the essentials! It's worth it to get to know the city from another point of view!

It was spectacular! The rowers maneuvered very skillfully through the small lagoons. The trip on the Canale Grande was also spectacular.

Our guide was fantastic! His knowledge and passion made the tour informative and fun.

Great tour! Perfect way to see the Grand Canal. Our guide was excellent. Highly recommend!
