La guide a été super !! Bienveillante, souriante et accueillante.
Elle nous a raconté beaucoup de choses tout au long du parcours. Nous avons suivi son conseil (meteo) et ne sommes pas allés à Torcello. Cela nous a permis de profiter de Burano qui est une belle île. Murano ca a été trop vite, dommag

Prachtige trip zeker Burano is de moeite waard mooie en gezellige plaats. De gespendeerde tijd is echter veel te kort. Bewust Torcello niet mee gedaan omdat we meer tijd op Burano wilden spenderen. Ook op Murano was er maar beperkte tijd om het glasblazen te bewonderen. Deze trip zou minstens 2 tot 3 uur langer moeten duren. Nu vertrokken om 10u45 en terug om 16u. Vertrek om 9u30 en terug om 17u30 zou je meer tijd geven om alles rustig te bezoeken. De gids was prima en gaf zeer veel uitleg

The meeting point was easy to find but there were so many people booked on the trip that we had to listen to the guide speaking in English and then in Italian , which at times was irritating. The visit to the Murano factory was brief and the focus is on you spending money at the shop. The next visit was to Burano which we enjoyed. We would not recommend going to Torcello as there is nothing there. We wish we had spent longer in Burano and had eaten there. The trip is worth the money

This was a lovely trip, burano, was our favourite island, absolutely stunning, with a lovely arty vibe. We enjoyed watching the glass blowing on Moreno island. Tour guide was lovely, very informative. There was a mix up with boats, we ended up travelling on 3 different ones, but didn't interfere with timings, these things happen, and we were kept informed at all times , trip was well organised we thought.

The boat we travelled in developed an engine problem and we had to use the Pink Venice boat to bring us back. As it was raining we had to shelter downstairs which was packed, meaning we had to stand all the way back which was nearly an hour.

The tour involved a 10-15 minute walk to the boat and the same at the end. There was confusion regarding what time we supposed to be at the meeting point. Getting on and off the boats one going out changed to a boat with multiple trips. Was challenging as gangplank was beyond basic and boat was never tied up. Very steep recommend trip only for very young mobile people no children prams people with sticks etc guide was very knowledgable.

This trip didn't disappoint. Beautiful Islands, it was nice to explore of the main land of Venice. The glass museum in Mirano was spectacular as was the glass blowing demonstration. The guide kept a steady slow pace and had lots of information. Burano- wow and so colourful.

Organisation : réservation pour 11h. Il nous a été demandé d'avancer notre départ à 10h25. nous avons dû retourner à l'agence à Venise pour le lieu de RDV.
Aspect pratique : conseiller eau et chapeau.
Burano : TB. Torcello pas obligatoire. Murano: moyen.

Muy buena atención de los anfitriones durante el paseo Pero hay un pequeño detalle: cuando llegué a la oficina, por no revisar, me mandaron a la otra empresa, que obviamente me regresó a dónde me tenía que registrar.
Cuiden mucho eso, porqué uno como turista extranjero, no sabe bien los movimientos.

We were staying in Lido Di Jesolo and made the mistake of booking this trip which begins in Venice. This meant that we had to get up extra early to make sure we arrived in Venice at the allotted time. Once onboard, the trip ran smoothly and the 3 islands ere a delight to visit. At Murano we had a 10 minute demonstration on glass blowing and then ere left to wander the island. Then onto Burano, where we stopped for lunch. Lastly onto Torchello.

The boat trip to the islands was lovely, enjoyed seeing the demonstration at Murano of glass blowing. The stop times have a good length of time to explore or grab a drink, something to eat or simply shop! My only negative was more that it was a little chaotic boarding as no structure of queuing!

Ganz nette, aber ziemlich oberflächliche Rundreise in der Lagune. Die Qualität der verschiedenen Sprachen während der Führung war ok, das Deutsch sehr ausbaufähig. Der Aufenthalt auf Murano war zu kurz, der auf Torcello zu lang. Insgesamt aber ok, aber kein Highlight.

Buon compromesso per chi vuole vedere tutte e tre le isolette in un solo giorno accompagnato da una guida che durante il viaggio fa una spiegazione sia del paesaggio che delle varie isolette. Bella l’esperienza in vetreria.
L’unica cosa che cambierei è che aumenterei un po’ il tempo a Murano.

Fantastic trip, lots of information about the history and the areas we past on the boat, glass blowing demo was good, show room of the glass for sale was large and lots to choose from. The island renowned for the lace was gorgeous, lots of shops selling fabrics and lace. Lots of restaurants to choose from. The third island has a long walk from the dock to the area of interest with the church and ruins, of which there aren’t many, again some restaurants but not much else.

The tour was very interesting. I would’ve enjoyed more time in Murano to spend more time out of the gift shop. The gift shop was very crowded at first making it hard to look around and decide on something to buy and still make it onto the island.

My only criticism is that we didn’t have enough time on Murano to visit the town.
After watching the glass blowing and shopping there, we only had 15 minutes left before we had to get to the boat!
Burano was beautiful - time for lunch and shopping.
Torcello not much to see.

Purtroppo una spiacevole situazione ha rovinato la magia: a causa di un ritardo di 4 minuti da parte mia (file in bagno), ho perso il battello dovendo rinunciare alla sosta sulla terza isola prevista nel tour (Torcello).
Peccato, avrei risparmiato 5 eur.

Sortie en bateau très sympa.
En revanche, il y avait l’île de Torcello en plus, ce qui aurait pu être une bonne idée, mais avec une sortie de 6h, cela fait vraiment trop court 1h à peine sur chaque île, comprenant parfois le temps du déjeuner ou visite. Burano est magnifique. Optimiser le temps

Troppo breve visita a Murano e il fatto di fare due turni per vedere dimostrazione maestro vetraio riduce il tempo di visita isola per chi fa il secondo turno.
A Burano ci siamo persi nei vicoli e non avevamo alcun riferimento a cui chiedere. Rimasti a"piedi" e nessuno si è interessato
