It was a good combination of sights and well organised, I missed the personal touch and felt to rushed. 30 Minutes more at each stop would make a huge difference.

The little islands are worth to discover. The guide give you interesting informations when you're at the boat. You will discover the islands on your own (while free time)
Most interesting was the glass making presentation. I also liked the more or less quite atmosphere at the islands. Very comfy. The 2 different starting points gave you more flexibility.
Finding the shop to get the official ticket was a bit hard for me. Being there you could ask for any other information you like. The workers were very kind.

We had an extra day to too explore Venice and we felt like we saw everything already. Booked this sightseeing tour last minute and it was a great way to spend the day. The islands don't have a ton to do, so 50mins at each we felt like we good. You're walking the islands yourself for the most part with the exception of the glass blowing demonstration. Good way to spend half a day.

Murano and especially Burano were interesting. There is nothing worth seeing in Torcello. That was a waste of time.

It was a nice break away from the crowds in Venice. A few thing to see, my wife loves the blown glass, so I had to drag her out of there. They did offer the group a discount, but I believe you could get it for the same price in Venice.

We enjoyed getting to tour all 3 islands without having to decipher the water taxi schedule. Liked Murano and Burano better than Torcello. Its quite a trek away from the dock to the cathedral.

Beautiful places, charming atmosphere, you have to see it🥰 The only inconvenience was the overcrowded water trams to get everywhere, but well... it's worth it. You have to bring lace from Burano, glass from Murano, and memories of a beautiful island from Torcello.

Grand cheap way to see these islands. 1 hour on each island. It can feel rushed but you get what you pay for. If you want longer to explore do not do this tour. Burano def my favourite then Torcello and Murano. If you are not back on time to the boat it will leave without you.

The islands were nice. We enjoyed watching the glass blower. Always have heard of Murano glass, so it was nice to view the shops. Also enjoyed seeing the Burano lace. The third stop reminded me of a Hallmark loves story location. It was a nice day.

Great tour, our guide was very friendly & informative. We had a small group of 16 which was great, not crowded. There were other larger groups, the islands are small so it got a bit crowded when we overlapped with other tours.
