We met Alessandro & he took us on a lovely boat to Murano , where we had a glass blowing tour, which was so interesting, we actually bought a spectacular carafe, pitcher & glass set which will be a staple in our home 4ever, we went to Burano, where the houses are a mix of bright beautiful colors & some folks there make stunning hand made lace items , we had the best gelato while walking through this adorable island, our guide was sweet & chock full of information about the surroundings & other islands we past, the boat ride was so smooth & we felt so safe with him as captain, this tour was so lovely & we thoroughly enjoyed our day & would do it again next time here, book this for an amazing day with a wonderful guide

Excellent morning tour of the islands. Alessandro, captain and guide, is an expert in all things Venice. He is friendly and charming, and we thoroughly enjoyed talking with him about the history and commerce of the area, as well as living in the city in modern times. The glass factory demonstration was amazing, as was the showroom of fine art created by the master glass blowers. If you’re looking to purchase a piece, this is a great opportunity. Be sure to ask Alessandro for his recommendation for gelato on Burano! Our only wish is that we had more time to spend on this tour!

Alessandro was a very knowledgeable guide for toting the islands! Also was adept at running the boat! Loved going to Murano and seeing glass blowing. Burano was charming and would go back there again. Loved all 3 islands we saw! Highly recommend this tour! Well done Alessandro!😀

This tour is really special. Alessandro was an amazing boat pilot and guide. He makes it a point to share his love of Venice with his guests and the history of the city. He's also very personable and entertaining. We got a wonderful demonstration of the glass blowing in Murano, and some incredible gelato on Burano. We're so glad we took this tour. I've had good and bad tours on Viator. This one will always stand out as one of the best!!

Alessandro was a great guide, timely and friendly. He had good information to share and was flexible about where we wanted to spend our time. He was also able to get us VIP access to the glass company we visited which was a nice treat.

Very accommodating and happy to take us every where . It’s nice to be somewhat secluded from the crowds

Wow, what a ride! Hopping on that boat and cruising to Murano, Burano, and Torcello was like diving straight into a Venice history lesson, but way cooler. Learning how Venice was built was mind-blowing. Those canals? They're not just pretty water streets; they're the heart of the city. Murano was all about fiery furnaces and wicked glass-blowing skills. Seriously, watching those pros turn hot glass into art was like magic. Burano? Picture-perfect with its colorful houses and awesome lace stuff. And Torcello? Felt like stepping back in time. We also chatted about the challenges Venice faces, like the crazy floods. Hearing about the new dam they built to fight off the rising waters was super interesting. Big shoutout to our guide! He was on point, super chill, and knew a ton. My only bummer? I should've booked a longer tour. There's so much more to see! All in all, if you're looking to get the real scoop on Venice and its islands, this boat tour is a must. I'm already planning round two. Catch you on the next wave! 🌊🚤🇮🇹

What an amazing time!!!! I can’t recommend this tour enough! We had gotten to see each place and because we chose not to see the glass blowing in Burano we had more time to check out a few local sites that we would have never known about otherwise! Our tour guide Alessandro was so knowledgeable and he was so easy going and willing to take a few photos for us too. It was such a lovely time, this beats taking the ferry by 10000x over. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
