Must see small islands! - Don't miss this boat tour to the small islands of Verona! The glass shop tour was private to our small group and fantastic. Burano's painted houses are something out of a dream! Our tour guide was knowledgeable, friendly and an excellent and experienced driver over sometimes choppy waters. Be aware that this is a small "typical Venetian" motor boat that could be a bit uncomfortable climbing in and out of, but we truly enjoyed the adventure!

This tour was great! The... - This tour was great! The boat is very nice and he is an excellent driver. He put up the shade for us whenever it got too sunny. He also showed us where to get authentic glass on Murano and lace on Burano, so we could avoid the knock offs. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting to escape the crowds of the main islands of Venice!

Beautiful Boat Day - What a beautiful day! Pier Angelo was a great host, he could not have been more accommodating and added to our day with historical facts about the fascinating city of Venice! All 3 islands, Murano, Burano and Torcello exceeded all expectations, but Burano was exceptionally stunning… a photographer’s dream!! Thanks to Pier Angelo… we had a fantastic day!!! Would book again!!!

AMAZING Tour to explore the Venetian Lagoon! - It has been great to experience the Venetian lagoon with Pierangelo. My Dutch friends and I had an amazing opportunity to explore and know more about the city and the lagoon thanks to the curious information Pierangelo shared with us during the tour. Grazie Pierangelo!

Pierangelo is the man! - If I could give this tour more stars I would. Pierangelo was an absolutely fantastic tour guide. He picked us up in his boat that was made very comfortable for us and very clean. He takes you all around to the important islands like Murano where you will see a fascinating glass blowing demonstration. If you are looking to see more islands around Venice and want to do it through a private tour Pierangelo and this particular tour is the way to go. I promise it is worth every penny.
