Absolutely and unbelievably one of the best days of my life. Giuseppe, who arranged not only this tour but many other activities for me, is a dream come true. He was so helpful on my first trip to Venice! Our guide, Kristina, was a delight to spend the day with. I am not sure there is anything she didn’t know and she is just a wonderful person to spend time with. We are so grateful we had an opportunity to learn from her and we thoroughly enjoyed her company and amazing knowledge. Please book this tour. It will become a memory of a lifetime.

We had such a wonderful and memorable day on our tour of the Grand Canal, Murano, and Burano. The private tour was perfect for our family of six. Our Guide (I apologize as I don't know how to spell) was amazing and knowledgeable. We thoroughly enjoyed our day making memories as a family in Italy. Thank you!

Kristina was awesome! Super personable and extremely knowledgeable. We had just a few hours to get a taste of Venice and this tour did the trick. The private taxis were warm and comfortable. Kristina helped to point out and facilitate great photo taking opportunities. The glass factory and lace shop were fascinating. We had an hour to kill before our train back to Florence and Kristina helped to point out a great walk and a couple of wine bars to help us spend the time. A great day!

We were met in Venice after the tender trip in to the city by our guide Sylvia. She was a delight to chat with and very knowledgeable. It was such fun going by private taxi boats to the islands and listening to her explain the history and local color of the area. The visit to the glass works and tour was like a visit to a glass museum. Thanks for a wonderful day.

We had a wonderful experience with our Grand Canal and Murano and Burano boat tour. We really enjoyed getting to ride down the Grand Canal and both islands. It was the perfect amount of time. Our guide was awesome and catered to us and our kids. She took us to a gelato store in Burano and let us use umbrellas when it was raining. Highly recommend this tour and the tour company was great to work with!

Our guide(Kristina) was thoroughly on target with the information as well as the presentation during our tour. She had a knack of connecting with her guests and making us feel a part of the story. Her English was excellent and she was free with information when it was needed.

The highlight of the tour was Monica - she was amazing! Monica was a fantastic guide, very knowledgeable and able to present the trip to all members of the family (young and old). Nothing was too much trouble for Monica, including a fantastic Venetian lunch recommendation. No tourists!!!

We had the perfect experience with our guide, Monica. She made us comfortable by asking questions about what we would like to do, and gave us so many facts and interesting stories about Venice history, architecture, tourism - anything we asked. Our trip was tailored to our preferences, with a little more walking and a little less tour time. The glass blowing Murano and lace making Burano demonstrations were worth it! Our lunch on Burano at Trattoria Gatto Nero was a meal well remember for years. Highly recommend this tour, and Monica!,

Good morning Giordana I wanted to Thank You and Alejandra for everything. We had such a wonderful visit in Venice, Murano and Burano! The glass blowing demonstrations were fantastic and the shop was beautiful. They even gave us the beautiful horse we watched them make after buying our souvenirs! We are completely in love with the people on Burano. What a treat to learn about the lace making and see one of the ladies creating this specialized art. Having Alejandra meet us and arrange the private taxi made everything so much easier on us. We dropped our luggage at the hotel and then went on to enjoy the day. She is a wonderful guide, very friendly, flexible and informative. We had the most delicious and FUN lunch at Gatto Nero-amazing food and really great company with Alejandra and Max! Delicious selection :) Thank You again for a very special day for our family! Cathy

Highly recommend this tour. Its totally private. Our amazing guide Roberta picked us from the hotel by a private boat and the grand canal tour was awesome and so were the islands of Burano and Murano. The lunch restaurant suggested by Roberta was amazing and top notch.

Alessandra was our brilliant tour guide for our visit to Murano and Burano. She was very interesting to listen to as she told us about many of the important buildings along the Grand Canal as we made our way out of Venice.

The Murano factory is fascinating, with an amazing demonstration from the artisans creating those wonderful sculptures. After the demonstration we got a chance to wander through the amazing gallery of works that have accumulated, incredible.

Burano was a beautiful island with a very cute town, we saw a very brief demonstration of the lace work that makes the island famous and then enjoyed a traditional Burano biscuit as we strolled through the streets learning about the leaning tower and the town square.

Worked perfectly to meet our expectations. A good half day spent in both the islands. Glass factory tour followed by a couple of hours in Burano. A tour of the Grand Canal on the way. A perfect private experience for us a family of four.

We were well looked after by Catty our guide on this tour and one of us ended up blowing a glass bowl, well nearly. Towards the end of the tour we told Catty we would like to spend some of the afternoon at a sensible eating place near our cruise ship and she took us to exactly the right thing. A good 5 hours on this tour.

Amazing tour! I was almost was going to book a shorter tour as we are a relatively impatient and spoiled couple who already visited so many places in the world. But this tour was just perfect! Mainly because of our Super Guide Giovanna a dynamic and enthusiastic young women who has the intelligence to make the right balance between narrating and being quite to let us enjoy the moment. She is an active instagramer, thus also experienced at taking good pictures and videos. So we didn't have to worry about the photography like the typical tourist, but still had great pictures at the end of the Journey. Another factor which was perfect: the weather. It was February but still a sunny day with no clouds. Finally, we liked the flexibility in the organisation: with pick-up / drop-of times and locations and the optional catering against additional costs if needed. There are probably limitations on what can be served, but it is worth asking if you want something special on board. We enjoyed a bottle of Champagne :-

We had a really lovely morning with our excellent guide Roberta. She was extremely knowledgable and clearly very passionate about her home town. Our trip included the Grand Canal and many smaller canals where we saw a little bit of ordinary Venician life. We then visited one of the glass workshops on Murano where we watched a fantastically skilled artist at work and visited the incredible showroom. Then on to Burano which is completely different a very pretty island with colourful houses and lots of restaurants and cafes. It was a beautiful sunny day which made it all the more pleasant.

Excelente opção de passeio. Passeamos de Barco Limousine pelo Canal Grande e seguimos a Murano. Conhecemos a mais antiga fábrica de vidros e seguimos para a colorida e romântica Burano! Leandro, nosso guia brasileiro, impecavelmente gentil! Recomendamos!
