Excellent tour guide for... - Excellent tour guide for Doges Palace and Basilica, but ear phones were not made for my ears and kept falling off. Try different type if earphones like headphones.

An excellent one day tour - Our tour guide was an art historian who truly enhanced the experience. While waiting for the tour to start, there was an outdoor cafe where we enjoyed a morning espresso. Murano is a must see with amazing glass artwork !

Fun - Fabulous tour! I am so glad they split it into two days! Day 1 - Elena was entertaining as well as informative as she shared the rich history of St. Mark's Basilica and Doge's Palace with us! Day 2 - the first stop to the glass factory on Murano was awesome! The next stop to a lace making 'factory' in Burano was disappointing. The tour was large and the shop was small so only the first maybe 10 people who were fortunate enough to be up front saw and heard the demonstration while the rest of us could not. Perhaps plan to have several demonstrations so all of us could benefit from it. We had plenty of time to free time to explore the island so this could easily be arranged. Aside from that it was a pleasant day.

Murano and Burano boat tour - It was a well-planned and pleasant tour to Murano and Burano Islands. Claudia was well read and a good guide. I would recommend this tour to others visiting Venice and the surrounding area.

Good excursion if you spend a few days in Venice - Good excursion! Recommended to see the murano glass blow and the burano village. Claudia showed us her enthusiasm and explained the history and curiosities during the excursion! A good plan if you are several days in Venice
