We were very satisfied with our trip, our tour guide during the boat trip was very interesting and clearly very informed. We had plenty of free time to walk around the islands and explore them. The visit to Murano glass factory was amazing, they're very skilled and talented.

The Murano, Burano & Torcello islands boat tour + glassblowing demo was a fantastic experience with the price offered and is perfect for anyone looking for a well spent half day in Venice. I would have preferred if the tour did not include Torcello, but devoted that time to Murano and Burano. Burano is a bigger island and I felt a bit rushed in those 50 minutes. The glassblowing demo was a big bonus and the main attraction of the visit to Murano. To see spectacular glass sculptures come to life in the hands of the master was truly a sight to behold.
The descriptions about the islands are usually aired on mic, and with the chatter around it was hard to follow. Providing a booklet or individual audio plugs would have been helpful. The other advantage is that this tour ends with a final stop to Santa Lucia railway station. So for those like me who have an evening train to catch, this option was also very helpful. I would recommend this experience to others as well.

I booked this trip, taking into consideration what I found on the app. Once we got on the boat, we found out that the visit to Torcello was actually from the time allotted to Burano. It was something that the guide could not explain. And in the offer, there was a 3D view of Venice, but not explained in details.
