very little input by guide . narrative given in super fast and mechanical manner. Just a boat receptionist really

It was nice and well managed. However, on the day it was delayed by more than 15mins and we ended up waiting for 30mins (one need to report 15mins in advance) in the rain but never been updated of the reason for the delay. Apart from this, it was a great trip.

Les trajets étaient bien, les visites aussi. Par contre, la guide ne parlait pas français, elle lisait un texte, mélangeait l'italien avec le français c'était peu compréhensible ! A la fin elle ne donnait même plus les explications en français !

Veramente troppo veloce la visita alle due isole, le spiegazioni non si sentivano dall'altoparlante del traghetto..

Buona organizzazione e guida. Mi aspettavo una visita guidata anche a Burano

En general bien, se podían extender un poco más en las explicaciones del recorrido.
