The gondola ride was really short - a small circle over narrow canal. Serenade sure added some atmosphere to the ride, but the price we paid for two 123.60$ would be enough to hire private gondola for one hour (I asked some gondolier, he said 100 Euro) just for two of us, not shared gondola we had on that 35 min tour. Next time we sure will hire private gondola! There are many gondolas departure points in Venice, so you can chose which part of canals to ride!

The tour was nice, but we had very little time to explore around. In Murano we had 5-7 min demonstration of glass horse making at the glass store where prices for everything were at least 1.5 times higher then in Venice for the same goods. I bought a necklace there for 30 Euro and was disappointed to find the same one at Venice for 16 Euro!
Nevertheless if you have very little time in Venice this is probably your only chance to have a glimpse on Murano and Burano.

The tour was interesting and the guide very knowledgeable and informative! We had many opportunities to feed monkey and take photos with them. Mengwi Temple is great, glad I saw it! But we were unfortunate to see rice paddies without rice. Also we had not walked around Tahan Lot, only looked at it from a hill. Sunset was not that majestic, but at some moment sun beaming from behind the clouds made a funny face shape and that was a delight! The only minus is that we spent a lot of time in the car - traffic was bad ...
I should mention that water bottle was not provided as initially said, but we were given drinks while testing tapioca.
