This boat tour to Murano and Burano was very nice. The boat ride was smooth and easy to get us to the islands. We felt like we had a good amount of time to explore the islands and shop, take pictures, etc. Overall we would recommend!!

Boat trip to the Murano Glass blowing factory then onto Burano for free time. Well organised and plenty of time at each place and advice of what time you had to be back on the boat. An enjoyable trip
