Best Murano Boat Tours in 2025

I liked it a lot. During the boat ride they explain detailed things to you and then you have 1 hour free on all the islands. In Murano it falls short, there you could do an hour and a quarter and Torcello 45 minutes

Our guide David was exceptional. So many interesting pieces of history, personal stories and insights. It was like spending the day with a local friend.

Fantastic trip with excellent guide! So worth the time and money - especially for first time visitors to Venice.

very pleasant stroll. visit of murano and burano to do. We were amazed with all these colors.

A bit difficult to find the tour manager as several groups from different tour operators were at the same dock at the same time...

We really enjoyed the trip. There was enough time in each place to go and explore.

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

The host was really good and friendly. The ship was comfortable and the journey was great. Good value for money.

Great experience! Guide was very friendly and helpful.

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

Beautiful experience, Loe our guide was cute in explaining the various things to know and advising us on a cute postman where we could have lunch! The only flaw, a little time to visit the islands!

Excellent boat and heated, friendly and adequate guide available. Beautiful demonstration in Murano, Beautiful Burano, Torcello to see. For the small difference in price, the tour of the three islands is always convenient since it offers more time to visit Burano than it deserves.

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

Morning part and guide was really good. Afternoon section was not as good especially “lace” Island

Already on the boat trip by taxi to Murano, our guide Giovanna explained a lot of interesting things about Venice and the origin of the glass manufactories. The private tour of the glass factory was very impressive and informative. Due to the special Corona situation, the four of us were the only guests, which meant that we were looked after extremely courteously and personally. The subsequent stroll with Giovanna through Murano with a visit to two churches in which pictures by old masters were hidden on the walls, the onset of flooding due to the tide and the many stories that Giovanna knew to tell us about Murano and Venice rounded off our private tour away. A very successful trip!

The 2 island tour was good for us overall. The boat was nice and allweil organized. We would have enjoyed more time on each island, Murano and Burano, as we had only some 60 minutes available for us on each island. The glass blowing presentation was a disappointment. It only took some 15 minutes and I missed explanations and close up views.

Very good organization, multi-language explanation throughout the journey. Only downside, arrival directly in the glass factory in Murano, and despite a beautiful demonstration of the glassblower, ..., the visit to Murano lasted only fifteen minutes! The visit to Burano was longer and more enjoyable...

Was amazing experience!!!Cristina is excellent guide, knowledgeable, attentive and charming. Thank you very much!!!

Tourist guides are very knowledgeable and inform in different languages. Going to the glass town of Murano is a must while being in Venezia. The boat ride is very pleasant and can be enjoyed from the inside and outside. The time and hours are more than enough as you get to experience some creations of glass objects, enjoy the colorful town of Burano and make it back to Venezia on time for a wonderful afternoon and late lunch if you didn’t have a bite in Burano.

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).
