If you are interested in getting in touch with ancient traditions and knowing more about Venetian history and culture, this tour is the right one for you: a plenty-of-time excursion to let you visit the most famous Venice islands in a relaxed way with no rush.
Get on board our panoramic vessel and reach Murano, known for its glass manufacturing industry. Enjoy the visit to a glass furnace to admire closely this ancient art.
Get back on board to reach the picturesque Burano. This island, famous for the hand-made laces, will impress you for the fishermen's houses painted in bright colors. Possibility to have lunch (not included).
Departure to Venice.

We were very disappointed in that we couldn't hear the tour guide announce that we could go through the town of Murano. Instead, we thought we were only allowed to be in the factory for the allotted time. We didn't get to see any of the town and that is very disappointing to us. I will not recommend this tour to anyone.

Great trip to see the two islands, you have around 1h20 on each island which was enough for us. Was easy to book and take the trip.

Burano island was pretty . We thought we would see lace making but were disappointed. The lace museum was closed .
The street was full of shops selling expensive clothes . We saw nothing of Murano, only a class blowing demonstration which was good . Then very expensive gift shop.

We’ve had amazing and informative tours with Viator in the past. This was unfortunately not one of those tours. It was really more like an expensive boat ride to and from the islands with 10 minutes (!) observing glass production in Murano. The rest of the 4 hour session was designated by the “guides” as free time. We also assumed the whole tour would be in English but instead the “tour” info provided over the speaker system on the boat was done in a very rushed fashion in 3-4 languages—making it difficult to even differentiate/hear/understand the English portions. It’s the first Viator experience I would NOT recommend.

We had a great day with the weather being perfect. The glass making demo was amazing albeit short. Great to look around Burano but really needed another hour to be able to explore then relax for lunch and wine!! Guides were very good, knowledgable and helpful.

Both islands were beautiful! I enjoyed the time we had at each one. However, the location of the tour boat in Burano was very hard to find; a few signs or a member of your crew standing out where they could direct people into the right little calle would have been very helpful.

Overall, a worthwhile trip!
However, we had very little from the guide, the explanations were given one after the other in 3 languages - German was very short and was barely understandable. Questions could not be answered. Booking a simple crossing to the islands would have been more appropriate in this case.

Walking round the picturesque island of Burano and the scenic views on the lagoon made this an enjoyable excursion, which we would recommend as a must do

Nice tour and guide.
I would have given it five stars but we were told two times this was not our tour. We could not get a hold of the operator. Finally the third time we asked (the same check in person) she said "oh yes thats your tour, run to catch them im sorry."
Once we got on the tour (they held the boat for us) it was nice, good commentary. Not enough time on Murano but a good taste.
I would suggest to the operator that they give the check in person a little help. She was very busy and tried to check our names but seemed rushed and if I had not pushed (asked three times) we would have missed our tour.

The boat ride and free explore time was excellent. We enjoyed the short glass creating experience. Thank you for a great day.
