The best experience to learn about the old arts of Venice lagoon islands: Murano and Burano.
With a private boat from Venice, directly to the oldest original Murano Glass Factory, where a Master glassblower and his team are working daily, following the tradition of centuries ago. From Murano, crossing the lagoon, we’ll reach Burano island, famous for its lace work and the colourful atmosphere. Walking by picturesque houses, enjoying the typical “bussolai” (famous cookies of the island), feeling like a resident. Last but not least, an insightful guided visit into an historical hand-made lace workshop.
Then back to Venice by private boat, for an outstanding view of the lagoon.

Truly a great experience. Both islands were amazing. The glass making factory was a very cool experience and its really amazing “art productions”. Burano is a really cool unique beautiful town. The boat ride is crazy good. The guide was want of the best I have ever had in 40 years of traveling. He did a completely great job.

Luca was the best guide we’ve ever had. This was a fabulous tour both for the beauty of the islands but more so for the history provided by Luca

For some context, I always try to pick out the best guided tours everywhere I go so I take my time reading reviews and picking the best as a lot of operators offer the same tour. This was different however… we were late to the start of the tour as our train was running late but that wasn’t an issue for Luka, he was already waiting for us at our hotel. Moving onto the tour we had a private boat taxi to ourselves on every stop which was super nice and convenient. We also got to see a glass blowing master in action, all to ourselves and even got the chance to try glass blowing! Luka was very engaging and had plenty of stories during the boat rides as well. He was up for any questions and was extremely passionate about Venice. Constantly offered to take pictures of my wife and I, told us about all the best spots and angles to take photos of the islands. He also knew the way around the islands to avoid big crowds and enjoy the peacefulness of the islands. Highly recommend!

The glass tour was unforgettable. Thank you Georgia for showing us your beautiful home. We were able to order some custom pieces. The lace was spectacular and so delicate. A must do tour when you are in Venice.

Our tour guide was absolutely fabulous! He was knowledgeable, incredibly good with our two kids (keeping them engaged and us informed), and went above and beyond to cater to our requests help make this one of the best experiences of our trip to Italy. Thank you so much!

The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. Would have liked a little more time to spend looking in the shops at the end of tour.

Our tours to the islands were interesting, informative, and exceptional thanks to our personable guide, Matteo, sharing his extensive knowledge and good vibes. Being mobility-challenged, we needed special assistance to cope with the various landscapes and Matteo took care of us like he was one of the family - highly recommended!

Our tour of these two islands were fantastic. Got to see glass blowing and then went to Burano and toured the city. Our guide, Natasha was very good. We went on the of the regatta but made both islands.

This tour was amazing! Matteo was so friendly and knowledgeable and shared his unique local perspective. Everything was first class from being picked up at our hotel, introduced to hosts on Murano and Burano and transported back to Venice. Highly recommend this tour!
