It was a perfect day! Murano and Burano were beautiful, and the boat ride there enjoyable! Our tour guide, Elena, for Doges Palace was absolutely amazing! She had so much knowledge and information of not only the Palace and cathedral, but of Venezia itself and she delivered her message with such fun and enthusiasm it never got boring!! Then, to top it all off with a gondola ride at the end? Fantastic! Well worth the money spent!

This experience was amazing and lots of fun. Highly recommend you speak to locals on Murano and Burano island. We got amazing recommendations for our next stop that we had planned in Florence and wow they did not disappoint!! The local food establishments recommended were 10000000 times better than any over priced tourist trap!

I felt like I got my moneys worth. It was easy to meet up with the tour company (right outside Doge palace). The palace and cathedral tour were good but it is a lot of walking so prepare for that. After the tour you have an hour to hang out before the Murano part. Murano was a quick and informative with the glass blowing. As was burano. I’m glad there was time to explore burano.

We were a party of four in Venice for the first time, only for two nights. This tour included most of what we wanted to see all in one day. We started with your guide Roberta/Robbie who was a stellar historian and tour guide. Beginning in the Doge's Palace, she brought the place to life through tales of long ago. We crossed the Bridge of Sighs, entered the jail cells, stood in the Councils chambers, climbed the staircases. Marvelous. Then into St. Mark's Basilica, where she timed it so the sunlight shining though the windows lit up the golden mosaic tiles of the ceiling: incredible. We finished the morning with a gondola ride not only on the grand lagoon but in some of the quiet, smaller canals...Amazing! After a short break, we met our afternoon guide, Nichole who walked us to the boat for a ride to Murano island for a glass blowing demo and time to check out the glass wares and shop if we desired. Then back to the boat to Burano Island for a lace making demonstration and time to explore the island. We shipped,walked and enjoyed gelato while strolling and taking photos of the colorful buildings! We then took the boat back to our starting place. The perfect way to spend our last day in Venice! Highly recommend!

Lovely tour with a lot to see in just one day! We visited Doge's Palace and St. Mark's Basilica, followed by a lovely Gondola ride in the morning. We were a family of 4 and had a gondola for ourselves! In the afternoon, we visited Murano and Burano islands where we saw a Murano master making some interesting glasses.
