This was a great half day, but I would have liked more time at the demonstration of glass-blowing on Murano. Overall, it was an interesting tour, and the scenery was very enjoyable.

This tour made it possible to see all three islands without the hassle of figuring out how to get there. The tour guides were very interesting. The glass blowing was amazing. Even the time spent on each island was about perfect. I was hesitant to only have a half hour on each island, but it worked out well.

I loved the glass demonstration at Murano. Burano is quaint and offers good shopping. Torcello is a real gem, I just wish there was more time to explore there.

Burano was the best island of the tour! Wish we could have had more time for the different islands, but for the price you pay, it is well worth it! It gives you a taste of the different parts around Venice.

There were only twelve travelers on this day's tour, but the guide spoke all four languages: English, Italian, French, and German. The outer islands are a must see when in Venice. We had an optional stop at Lido which we all took and thus made a good event even better.

What a wonderful experience. We had a well informed guide, and a great time was had by all.

I enjoyed the relaxation of the tour. It was well worth the money. I enjoyed Burano the most, and I felt Torcello probably could have been eliminated. Murano was valuable to see the glass blower, but Burano, with its different colored houses, made a great walking setting.

Would have liked to stay longer at Burano, beautiful place and seen more than just glass blowing at Murano, but overall, really enjoyed this tour.

Of all the small tours I booked in a recent tour of Italy, this was one of the best. Though a little rushed, there is no better way to see the Venetian islands all in a lovely afternoon. I would definitely recommend it.

This was the perfect tour for when you have limited time in Venice but you still want to see these three beautiful islands. If I had gone here without the tour I would have spent the whole day in Burano. With the tour you see the islands, get some of the basic information about them and about Venice, and you still have time to go back to Venice and explore.

We had a great time at the islands. It was well worth the trip. Everyone was very nice. We would go again. The boat trip over was really fun.

Great trip. Depends how long you want to spend on each island. If you're happy to have a quick look at each island, then this is the trip for you.

Not long enough at each place, especially Torcello as it was 15-20 minutes to walk to the church. It was beautiful, but we didn't have time for the museum. Another half an hour there would have made all the difference. The guide didn't speak clearly and really didn't seem interested. It also started late. Murano was amazing, and Burano was just beautiful.
