Traveler reviews
A relaxed way to take it all in!
An insightful way to see a couple more islands surrounding Venice. This is in fact a very chill way to take in Venice’s surroundings. It is a long trip so go prepared with snacks and perhaps take a jumper/ jacket with you as it can be a bit colder. The tour guide was very insightful and provided lots of knowledge and information about the islands. We thoroughly enjoyed this and thought it was well worth the money.
This tour was great! You...
This tour was great! You got to see some of the small islands that are close to Venice. I really enjoyed how small the islands were so you can walk around and see the local shops.
Ordinary experience
Just buy the ferry ticket E25. The tour guide offered nothing. Plus when she did commentate the PA on the ferry was so bad it was just noise.
Great intro to Venice!
Pros: It was a beautiful day. Guide spoke 3 languages and provided basic info on visiting ports . Boat ride provided amazing views of the inner parts of Venice. All staff were pleasant. Cons: Very confusing direction to get to meeting point. Stay at ports were short. I would have loved to look and shop more at Murano & Burano. I could have easily skipped Torcello in order to stay longer at the other two.
