Piazza San Marco Tours

Murano you can see how they work with glass, making different products which they sell in stores around the island. Very small Torcello, a path next to the canal that you enjoy until you reach the church. Burano a beautiful island, with its very colorful houses and more Tourist. You can see their star product that is made with lace. In this tour there is no specific guide; there was a person who spoke on the tour but he was not well understood due to the bad sound of the boat's microphone. IT ONLY LASTS 4 HOURS. On their page it says 4 1/2 to 5 1/2 hours

The guide Andre was very knowledgeable and helpful. I would have liked it better if there were less number in the group. For the purpose of buying Venetian glass products, purchase them in Burano. I found more variety and less expensive options too. The boat ride is beautiful, make sure you watch the sunset.

It was interesting to visit the islands surrounding Venice. Each island was different in terms of beauty and were all aesthetically pleasing. In murano the main attraction was the glass factory other than that there wasn’t much there. Torcello was more historical but smaller. Burano was the busiest of the three with many restaurants and beautiful scenery. You were allocated about 60 minutes to see each island before your boat left to get to the next island.

We enjoyed Morano but particularly Borano as I could have stay there for a whole day. As others have said, if only we did not have to stop at Torano. Transport was good, but again as others said that the PA was difficult to understand at times. My husband, who can speak Italian, noticed that there was more information given in Italian than in English.

Our guide and the boat driver were very nice and knowledgeable. These 2 small and very charming cities, you should visit, a nice way to get away a little from the big crowd of Venice. Unfortunately 2 costumers from our tour found a way to get lost and made the whole group wait for 25’ inside the boat and reduced the time we could have had for a nicer lunch in Burano.

practical organization, and very pleasant guides. The time given to Murano is more than enough, especially if you do not want to buy handcrafted glasses. on the other hand, the stop at Burano deserves 1 hour more to allow time to wander more.

Lovey experience that you can’t miss out in Venice. Having a private gondola was very much worth it, and going in the early morning gave us a much better experience. A shout out to the great captain of the gondola we had, very engaging and friendly!

A most enjoyable trip, on a lovely boat not to big, & our guide was brilliant told us lots of info about where we were going, told us lots of story's about people. Murano glass factory was delightful we saw a demo of how things were made, & going around the shop was magical. Burano was truly beautiful place & the cafe by the bridge overlooking the lagoon was stunning, lovely snacks & wine. On the way back going around the lagoon was very interesting, a truly lovely experience.
