    The guides were puntual. The tour was given in 4 languages (italian, french, spanish, english). That was really awsome. The only thing to be improve is to put some speakers on the lower floor of the big boat. You can not hear anything in the first floor, and the second floor is kind of imposible because of the cold/wind this time of the year.

    All ran smoothly as advertised (although an extra 30 mins in second island would be nice to allow for lunch and a drink as well as a walk round the island)

    Our guide Julia was amazing very informative about different things to see while on the boat. Clear instructions on what time to be back on the boat when visiting the islands. Murano Glass making demonstration was amazing. Burano was lovely had some free time to explore. Worth the money!

    A great value for money trip. The glass blowing demonstration was amazing. We enjoyed the lace making and lunch sat looking at the beautiful coloured houses. The boat trip to the islands provided a great insight into the history of the area. The guides were friendly and knowledgeable.
