The glassblowing demonstration was very cool. My wife loved Burano and said it was the cutest town we had been to so far. Great day relaxing on the boat between islands.

Our guide Francesca was very friendly and the trip was excellent. All three islands are worth a visit and although there is not much on Torcello, there was time to stop and have a drink at one of the restaurants and relax. The glass blowing demo was interesting to watch. The houses on Burano were very picturesque and the ice creams were lovely! Definitely a must do while you are in Venice.
