Anna was our tour guide and was fabulous. We went to Murano and Burano as a group day tour from Venice and both were so great. The glass blowing demonstration in Murano was amazing. Anna was knowledgeable and fun. Highly recommend.

Amazing tour with plenty of time on each of the islands to have a walk, great visiting both the glass factory and the lace production, would definitely recommend!

Amazing tour! Sylvia was a funny, knowledgeable, amazing guide, and the tour was very well done. The ride to both islands contained cool info, then the glass and lace demonstrations were fascinating. I didn’t feel pressured to buy things, but I did buy a beautiful table cloth in Burano. We did the 2:30 tour, which was nice bc we got to see Burano as it closed up. The streets were more empty, and it was nice to be there later in the day. I read a lot of reviews before booking this one, and this one is definitely worth booking! On the way back, she added lots of facts about the other islands we passed, and we were lucky enough to see migrating flamingos. Two thumbs up for the entire experience!

Elly and Elena were fabulous tour guides. Elly was extremely energetic and entertaining with facts about the region and Venetian culture. My struggle with the tour was that it was scheduled originally for the morning. However due to a boat race they had to reschedule to later in the day which meant that when we arrived in Burano the island was shutting down for the day so the shops and some restaurants such as the gelato place they highly recommended were closed. Even the public facilities were closed at 5:30. The boat race should have been known long before the week of the tour and planned around long before. We were left with no other alternative about rebooking. The tour was fantastic and so were the guides but the poor planning made us give this a low rating.

Great tour. Very well organized. Ellena was a very good guide. Visited a glass fabric. They were not pushy selling. Wish I had more time to explore the islands.

Besides having a hard time understanding our guide’s English, the tour was good. It was nice to see the three islands. Islands were great.

What a great way to see both islands. If you are looking to buy either glass or lace I highly recommend buying on the islands versus Venice. Our tour guide Cecilia was delightful and very knowledgeable.

This tour of the islands was spectacular. Francesca was such a wonderful tour guide. She was very knowledgeable and helpful during the tour. We were able to capture so many beautiful pictures and bought some of the best souvenirs of our entire trip. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to get away from the super touristy areas of Venice.

Loved watching the glass blowing. We’re delayed a bit too long in Murano by one couple making a purchase while the rest of the boat waited. Burano was beautiful!
