Best way to experience Burano and Murano - This tour was a perfect way to explore the islands outside of Venice and step away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Our tour guide (Nicholas, sp?) was fantastic. A Venetian local with a wealth of knowledge and went out of his way to customize our experience for us. The tour of Murano was terrific and our 4 year old loved the colors and she was given a very nice gift at the end. Burano was stunning with its colorful houses. A much slower pace compared to Venice, which was enjoyable. The day was a bit foggy, but didnt take away from the amazing experience. Additional kudos to our tour guide for also helping us book our water taxi ride the next day to the airport. It was smooth and effortless.

A great tour of two must-see islands - We had a great time visiting Murano and Burano with our guide Nikola. The glass blowing demonstration and tour in Murano was one of the highlights of our time in Italy, and the tour of the beautiful isle of Burano was fun and informative. Nikola was an excellent guide, ensuring that we had an excellent experience. Highly Recommend.

Great private tour with Georgia - We had an amazing afternoon on this tour with our fantastic guide Georgia. After being picked up in a private boat from our hotel, we visited a glass factory in Murano and then spent some time exploring Burano before being dropped back at the hotel. Georgia is a local and was very knowledgeable, friendly and enthusiastic. Many thanks Georgia!

Fun day! - Guide was great, transportation was seamless, and the glass factory tour was amazing! Had to bring home some Murano glass tumblers as a memory of this trip. Loved our stroll through Burano as well.

Nice tour - Nice tour, watching the glass made was very fascinating, most items are super expensive. A simple vase is 2000 euros. We got a small figurine and some earrings. Any piece that was a decent size vase to put in a dozen roses was 6-7000 euros. The lace shop was amazing and the ladies are very sweet we purchased some gorgeous tablecloth and runners. The walk through town along the canals is very pretty, don’t expect much from the tour guide on Burano she just escorted us there. But it was a nice day.

Absolutely Amazing!!! - Amazing experience. Our day could not have been better. We learned so much on our tour, but more importantly the bond our guide had with the islands was genuine and from the heart. We could not help but to feel what a truly special place we were visiting. During our vacation we visited 4 countries with several tours, but this was hands down the best. Thank you for a perfect day.
