Great trip
Carlynne_S, Nov 2023
It was a great trip and reasonably priced. It is helpful to be next to yellow kiosk when the tour guide starts walking to the boats ( she holds a flag), so that you do not get lost in the crowd. There were enough people to fill up two boats. The glass demonstration in Murano was great, Burano was charming and Torcellp’s Byzantine church interesting.
Very well organized!!!

I liked that the boat staff were very professional and punctual. They put up signs for the departures which helped to re-enforce the timing in the event that someone didn’t hear the announcement on the PA system. I would have liked more time on Both Murano and Burano islands.
Very good excursion

They gave us time to explore the islands. The commentary on the boat by the guide about the different island/scenery along the route is very helpful.

The staff was great, the hostess on the bus was absolutely adorable and charming, but the man at the desk check-in was awful, very stressed and rude for no reason. We were 10 minutes late but the boat was late too, so there was no need to be rude or make us sprint to the boat. The tour itself is very cute and interesting but it could use more spare time to tour the islands. On Murano you have the time to watch two glass making techniques, tour the shop to find a souvenir and it's already time to go back to the boat. We saw almost nothing of Torcello, a quick walk by the canal, up and down a bridge and the outside of a church. But in Burano the demonstration takes only a few minutes so you get a good half hour to walk around the streets and enjoy the island.

Gladys_H, Jun 2023
Murano y Burano valen muchísimo la pena para visitarlas, no asi Torcello. Lo único que me parecio muy desordenada la forma de subir al barco. Nos hicieron hacer una cola al sol, en un dia con mucho calor, para darnos los tickets, cuando se entiende que uno hace la compra por internet justamente para evitar eso.
Venecia en Navidad

Buena organización, orden, puntualidad y limpieza. Muy bien las explicaciones de la guía, en varios idiomas, y la descripción de la laguna de Venecia. Se agradece que en la parada de Bursno se puede comer tranquilo y estupendamente, además. Una sorpresa Torcello. Un enclave sugerente y muy especial. Muy recomendable

Desconexion y relax de un buen viaje
