An Amazing Day Exploring the Venetian Islands! - This tour from Venice to Murano, Burano, and Torcello was absolutely fantastic! It was an incredible way to see the iconic islands of the Venetian Lagoon in just one day. This tour is so much interesting and full of history, culture, and craftsmanship of each island. Murano was a highlight, where we got to watch a glassblowing demonstration — truly a remarkable experience! Burano, with its colorful houses and lace-making traditions, was straight out of a postcard. Then, Torcello, a peaceful and historical island, offered a lovely break with its ancient churches and quiet atmosphere. The boat ride between islands was scenic and relaxing. This tour is a must-do for anyone visiting Venice!

Not recommended - don’t waste your money - Average. Basically, this was a boat ride to 3 islands. You can simply purchase the tickets for yourself from any of the water taxi stops and save yourself some money. We got left behind at the last stop because we were literally 1 minute late - departure time was 2:35 pm and we arrived at the dock watching them sail off despite the fact that they took a headcount of passengers at every other stop and knew good and well how many people were supposed to be on deck. I get the importance of timeliness; however, putting that aside, there was nothing special about their service or this experience and wouldn’t recommend it.
