This was the perfect half day tour! Our tour guide Flavia was knowledgeable and great! She gave us a great day, the perfect blend of information, fun, laughter and free time. I definitely recommend. Murano and the glass blowing demo was pretty cool, and Burano and its colorful houses plus short lace demo was an epic experience as well.

Our guide, Nicole, was fantastic! She gave us lots of information on the history of Venice and the surrounding Venetian Is. Well spoken, knowledgeable, welcoming and well presented.
Maruno and the glass making tour was incredible! Definitely worth taking the time to visit.
Baruno is a quaint little island, stunning to walk around see the brightly coloured homes everywhere.
The lace making is interested, however, you don't learn very much and most of the time there is for you to purchase their modern design table runners, place mats etc.

Nicole was awesome! Very informative, walked around Burano and guided us to the perfect spots. The charter boat captain went above and beyond. I left my phone on the boat and he made sure I got it back. The whole experience couldn't have been better! Thank you both!

Nicole is very good, and patient with our tour to murano and Burano.
She took us there via the water taxi , and introduced us to the other guide to show us the traditional glass making, it’s fascinating and a lot of work, but the outcome is just brilliance from chandelier, glass statues, and jewelries.
The Burano is another island that is known for lace work, and tourism is the primary economy, the colorful houses and wonderful to look at, best place to escape from the busy life in the city.
Aside she toured as in the islands on the way back she glimpsed of the other islands and the lagoon where people swims in the summer and also fishing and shows us the barriers when the high tides come especially during full moon and rainy season.
Learned so much in a short period of the tour and been an interesting outing.
Thank you again . You’re brilliant with your job 👍😊👍❤️
