Excellent Experience, Highly Recommend! - Our guide Leo was truly a joy to spend the day with. His knowledge of Murano and Burano painted a picture for us that will last a lifetime in our memories. The team at the glass factory was also amazing, and their skills are impressive to say the least. We didn't intend to make any purchases but we soon fell in love with a few items that we could not leave without. Same thing with the lace shop on Burano. No intention to buy, but their craft is so impressive it's hard to resist splurging a little. All in all this tour was one of the top highlights of our trip to Italy.

Island Hopping with Marta - Marta was an engaging and knowledgeable guide. My kids loved her. We had a great time at Fornace Venier on Murano. Both kids had the opportunity to blow glass! Once we arrived at colorful Burano, Marta bought Esse Buranello to eat. My daughters enjoyed watching the lacemakers work their magic. Lovely way to spend the morning in Venice.

Great local guide - Our guide not only knew the area, she was greeted by locals that knew her. She was able to tell us about local history, had photos to show, and even gave us local cookies.
