Torcello Tours

Really nice excursion to visit Murano and Burano ! The guide Andreas is perfect, he can speak lots of languages. Really practical to be able to board and get off at Santa Lucia or Saint Marco. We also visited Torcello, but I think it isn't worth the detour. The time we could spend in Murano and Burano was not enough, it would be better to skip Torcello and lengthen the time in Murano and Burano. Burano is the best spot for gorgeous photos !

The information given by the multilingual guide was clear and interesting to know. The islands are a must see, Burano being the most picturesque with its brightly colored houses. The boat ride is comfortable. The free time granted on site allows you to wander the alleys while admiring the very nicely stocked local shops.

Nice tour, well organised. The longest break in Murano is excellent, perfect for having a leisurely lunch and then visiting the island. Burano is also very beautiful. The boat crew very kind and helpful. Well done

Great tour with a great group leader Georgia. She had great command over four language and was very clear in her English. The way they showed us the various important landmarks of Venice along the route made it as a city tour as well which we really liked. The time given at Murano Burano was also sufficient as we felt. ( if you want to spend more, one can come separately but with a tour I think time given was very sufficient). Transported in a big enough boat with good views . 10/10 from my side.

I highly recommend this experience! I had a small mishap before departure, but the staff were really helpful and I finally managed to take the tour…and it was worth it! Perfect organization, very prepared escort who provided us with a lot of explanations and many curiosities of which I had no idea, kindness and professionalism on everyone's part. I had a really nice afternoon! I advise!

We thoroughly enjoyed our private boat tour with Pierangelo. He was friendly, knowledgeable and engaging. It was nice to relax on his beautiful boat and get away from the crowds and take a break from walking. Highly recommend!

I was a nice experience and we saw a lot of interesting things.The only problem was that the program was a bit tight and we didn't have a lot of time in any of the islands to really enjoy them or even sit for a quick coffee. We were on the run the whole times. On top of that they combined 3 groups in one so the boat was a bit crowded and we didn't have a proper place to sit between the island hopping. (We sut on the stairs)

Just nice, and we wanted to take an individual picture on the gondola but was told many others are waiting as we are still in the gondola before we leave. I was disappointed with it and the only picture we took for ourselves, like in a group or selfie, not an individual.

What a great day! Alex made sure we were very comfortable and he was very knowledgeable about the history of Murano, burano and torcello. Stopped in Murano to watch a great display of glass making up close and personal then showed the beautiful range of glassware to choose from. Then onto burano we had the famous borano cookie and went walking around the island, it was amazing. Alex went above and beyond to keep us satisfied. Definitely recommend it. Cheers Alex

The excursion to the lagoon gave us the opportunity to enjoy the beauty of the islands of Murano, Burano and Torcello. The boat ride through nature was breathtaking, and a stop on the island of Murano allowed us to see the glass making process and learn about the art of glassblowing.

Very well organized, friendly guide and very inspired by his region. The advantage of this tour is still to avoid crowds in the public shuttles and also to take the time to stop where you want. Disappointment nevertheless on the visit to Murano, especially on the too short demonstration of the master glassmaker.

Glass display was great. We enjoyed torcello too. It was quiet but charming. Burano by far the best. We were delivered in a chaotic way. Started at 2pm then had to change boats and joined us with a massive group. Didn't get going til 2.45. When stopping at burano they said they were going and someone would be back for us at 6. This was a little worrying. They turned up just to take us back and it felt like no connection with new people. Didn't get back til 7 so longer than expected. Great trip for price but ours felt chaotic.

The guide was amazing and narrated everything in 5 languages all day! The weather was not great--rainy and cold--but that could not be helped. I understand that we were trying to take in a lot of sights in one day, but it did at times feel very rushed.

the vaporetto cost should be explained to the customers beforehand so that they can budget for it. it cost me 75 euros for a day pass for 3 people, had I known before o could have bought a 48hr hour pass to cover my entire atay and saved some money

The best €25 I ever spent! Amazing day trip to 3 gorgeous little villages! Perfect amount of free time in each place, the day flies in! Like other people have said, don't buy anything in the glass factory, things are much cheaper in the shops. Really nice big boat, with an option to sit inside or outside.

Friendly, competent, very knowledgeable, many thanks to our guide Claudia, who integrated our children (11 and 6 years) wonderfully. The transfers with the motor boats were also great! Highly recommended!
