We’ve had amazing and informative tours with La Vacanza Travel in the past. This was unfortunately not one of those tours. It was really more like an expensive boat ride to and from the islands with 10 minutes (!) observing glass production in Murano. The rest of the 4 hour session was designated by the “guides” as free time. We also assumed the whole tour would be in English but instead the “tour” info provided over the speaker system on the boat was done in a very rushed fashion in 3-4 languages—making it difficult to even differentiate/hear/understand the English portions. It’s the first La Vacanza Travel experience I would NOT recommend.

We had a great day with the weather being perfect. The glass making demo was amazing albeit short. Great to look around Burano but really needed another hour to be able to explore then relax for lunch and wine!! Guides were very good, knowledgable and helpful.

Both islands were beautiful! I enjoyed the time we had at each one. However, the location of the tour boat in Burano was very hard to find; a few signs or a member of your crew standing out where they could direct people into the right little calle would have been very helpful.

Walking round the picturesque island of Burano and the scenic views on the lagoon made this an enjoyable excursion, which we would recommend as a must do

Nice tour and guide. I would have given it five stars but we were told two times this was not our tour. We could not get a hold of the operator. Finally the third time we asked (the same check in person) she said "oh yes thats your tour, run to catch them im sorry." Once we got on the tour (they held the boat for us) it was nice, good commentary. Not enough time on Murano but a good taste. I would suggest to the operator that they give the check in person a little help. She was very busy and tried to check our names but seemed rushed and if I had not pushed (asked three times) we would have missed our tour.
