The tour was excellent. We had a great guide (Silvio if I remember) and he taught us a lot about the nearby islands and also was a native of Burano and it was an authentic experience. The glass blowing exhibition on Murano was quick and really fun to watch. The boat operator was polite, helpful getting on and off the boat and on time at every stop.

A lot of time was spent on the boat traveling to the islands which is understandable considering the distance. It’s really the only way to see them. Murano & Burano were both great little towns! The glass blowing demo was so cool and definitely worth seeing - we only stayed in murano long enough to do this and didn’t have any free time to explore really. We were in Burano for an hour. It’s very small so we were able to walk around & see mostly everything but definitely could have spent more time there. Our guide was great- our only complaint really is that this was advertised as a 5 hour experience and it ended up only being 4 hours (2:30-6:30), 2 of which were spent on the boat. Overall a good experience!

Great trip and tour guide was full of knowledge and information! Only down fall is the time at Burano is quiet rushed. You really need to choose between walking around to have a look and explore or having lunch. Very hard to fit both in without feeling really rushed. I almost missed departure due to waiting for my bill at lunch. An extra half hour minimum would make it better
