Leroy R.
It was peaceful and scenic, but I expected a bit more interaction or storytelling.
Diamante P.
Annamaria gave us wonderful insights into Murano. Very exciting, informative and personal. Thanks very much!
Mandi
It was easy to find, easy to just give the tickets to the person and get on our gondolas! The ride was relaxing and peaceful. We loved seeing the sights.
Michelle
Our gondolier Alvise Marco was fantastic! He was very engaging & funny. I highly recommend this ride.
Giacinta D.
We had such an amazing time on our trip. From the moment we stepped on to the boat our guide was fantastic. It was a great history lesson in all thing Venetian and any questions we had were answered. We visited Murano and Burano and our guide ensured we didn’t miss anything at the same time giving us space. Would highly recommend! Thank you so much
Mary A.
A lovely 30-minute escape from the crowds. Highly recommend for couples!
Jenny H.
Our guide, Andrea was excellent. The only negative was the line for the women’s restroom was way too long due to a toilet being out of order. Other than that the place was beautiful and the guide very knowledgeable.
Carmen V.
It was lovely but poured rain Careful of pick pockets as my friend had her phone stolen shortly after getting off
Michelle J.
Francesca was AMAZING! She literally went above and beyond. We were fortunate to have her when we arrived and left Venice. Don’t hesitate to book this, it will make your trip 1000% better.
Steve
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.
Tammy B.
Beautiful! I had never had an experience like this! The provider's customer service provided me with more options on the route than I could have chosen; I relied on them and I did not go wrong! I am happy to have chosen this activity, a really well spent hour! I add that even the captain of the beautiful boat was super nice and helpful!
Thelma R.
The best way to transfer from the train station to the hotel! Francesca met us on the platform and was so friendly and welcoming. She even took pictures of us with some of the sights in the background while we were on the water taxi. Very highly recommended!!!
Deborah
Nice boat trip with weak German explanation. Somewhat chaotic organization. From the meeting point to the ship through a crowd of people at the market square. Stop in Murano just for buying glass. Torcello visit to the church (5 €). Free design is only possible on Burano. Recommended only in good weather.
Adalrico C.
Outstanding visit. The guide Giovanna made us feel at home, prepared and professional. The whole visit is an unmissable emotion to give to yourself and your family. Exceeded our expectations
Marjorie B.
It was enjoyable, though quite short for the price. Still, a classic Venice experience.

My husband and I had an amazing experience on our boat tour through Venice with Emiliano. From start to finish, it felt like a truly personal and memorable way to see the city. Emiliano was a fantastic guide—warm, knowledgeable, and genuinely funny with a great sense of humor. He took us through both the quiet canals and the iconic Grand Canal, pointing out beautiful historic buildings and sharing interesting stories, including who lives where and the history behind many of the landmarks. We also enjoyed delicious wine and snacks during the ride, which made the experience even more special. The boat itself was beautiful—new, clean, very well-kept, and incredibly comfortable. You could tell Emiliano takes pride in what he does, both in how he treats his guests and in how he maintains his boat. We can’t recommend this tour enough. It was a highlight of our trip and the perfect way to experience Venice from the water. We wish Emi the best!

What a wonderful day with our guide in Murano. We loved the tour of the glass factory and a walk to the amazing church in the island. It was a perfect way to spend the day.
