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.

If you don't have a lot of time to explore these islands, this is a great way to get a little taste of what they have to offer.

We really enjoyed this tour, and would recommend it to anyone with more than a day or two in Venice. It was very well organised, from the convenient meeting point to the efficient ferry transfer between the islands. We would, however, have loved to have had more time on each island, as we felt rather rushed with time to see little more than the main street in Burano, the glass blowing demo and shop in Murano and the Basilica in Torcello. These are lovely islands with lots more to see, but we had insufficient time. Our guide was good, but the audio system on the ferry was poor so we missed a good deal of information. The approach to St. Marks Square on the ferry return was really impressive. It is breathtakingly beautiful. Overall this was a good tour visiting three lovely islands, and is not to be missed.

Very good trip but a confusing start regarding where we would be met and who the guide was.

The glass blowing demonstration was great.

These were excellent destinations and it was good timing for on-shore visits. It was a bit hard to understand the commentary. I don't know if it was the sound system or the narrator, but I think it was both.
