we had a simply lovely outing with Benedetta as our guide. she is very knowledgeable of the area and she is also very friendly. the tour was timed well and we did not feel rushed. they offered the option to book a restaurant for us and we enjoyed a wonderful meal on burano. although it is a pricey excursion the personal service and transport from beginning to end was exceptional. the tour to the islands was fun and interesting as long as you understand that the artisans who study for decades while continuing to hone their skills don't only work for show... their items are for sale.

Sara was amazing and was so knowledgeable. I would definitely book this tour again because it got us to Murano and Burano to see all of the places on our bucket list. The tour at the factory in Murano was fantastic and seeing the lace and painted houses in Burano was so special. Sara snuck in one last surprise for us at the end that was so cool - you have to book to find out! You won’t regret going on this tour.

Silvia was knowledgeable, engaging and pleasant. She shared a great deal of historical information. Additionally, it was apparent that she has fostered great working relationships with transporters and venders. We enjoyed the experience very much. We appreciated the confirmation call regarding pick-up location the day before.
