Such a cool experience! - My boyfriend and I were only able to stay in Venice for one full day and decided to book this tour to make the most of our time. This tour was so fun and such a cool way to explore Venice!! The meeting point is about a 30-40 minute walk from the train station so be aware of that time frame especially with arriving 30-15 minutes early of the tour. There’s no Ubers that we saw and no inner city train transportation.

Don't miss them - Venice is beyond what most people know of.
I had been to Burano once before but when I returned with my son, I made sure that we would take this tour of the three islands. Every island is a pleasure to visit, each island offers something different from the others. I would really recommend finding time to do this full day tour when in Venice.

Great tour! - This tour was a lot of fun! While it was a super crowded tour, there was the freedom to wander around as we pleased...with the understanding that we needed to be back at the boat on time in order not be left behind. I do wish they had allowed for a bit more time in Murano and Burano for more shopping and sight seeing.

Island hopping on your time - What an amazing day! Definitely recommend this tour, which is a self-guided once on the islands. During the boat ride there is narration of what is being passed and what to expect on the islands. It's a good size group, but doable as we all walked at our own pace. The glass blowing on Murano was amazing and the shopping too much fun. Burano was fun with all the colorful homes and wonderful atmosphere with local vendors. And Torcello was a quaint island with a short walk to the church. A nice half day tour. Only negative is we would've liked more time on Burano, but it was enough to know we would go back on our own next time.

6-hr trip to 3 nearby islands - I would have liked at least 15 minutes or half an hour more in Murano.. It just wasn’t enough time! Besides that, we really enjoyed the day. :-) All I’m gonna say OK

Tiring but great - It would take more time in Burano and a little less in Torcello.
Otherwise, a magnificent visit with a guide who speaks French.
I strongly advise

Cheap and cheerful - A bit busy on the boat but good price. Islands are lovely with plenty to see though it can feel a bit rushed

Great experience! - Great experience and an informative trip. Probably would have been better to have spent longer at Murano as that is the biggest of the 3 and less time at Torcello.
Only thing to note is that the google map link took us to a different meeting point, luckily my son managed to find the correct location otherwise we would have missed the trip.

Ok but not to exciting - The tour was ok. Many more people than I had expected. Of course pouring rain did not help, but that is not the fault of the tour company. I would have thought the tour of the Murano glass factory would have given some history about the creation of the glass, etc. not just a 10 minute glass blowing demonstration and then on to the show room to try to sell you stuff. The glass was very beautiful, but think they could sell more if one knew the history behind it. On to Burano, where lace is their claim to fame, but again no history. On to Torcello which did have an interesting history, but not the most exciting. The boat ride back to Venice was good and very scenic dive the rain had stopped. Like I said it was ok, but not the best.
