Not that good, you could probably take the vaparetto to these islands and have a better time. Not enough time in Murano to explore the island, arrive via the shop and whole boat load of people is sent through the shop - it just felt like we had been ferried there to spend money at the factory. Burano was excellent but as stated if you just want to explore the islands, there are cheaper ways to do it.

This tour was exactly what we were looking for. The meeting spot was easy to find and it was a beautiful day in and around Venice. We took a comfortable boat to both islands and had our own time to walk around, see the sights, eat lunch and really enjoy both places.

easy way to see 3 of the key islands in the Venetto (and cheaper than using the Water Bus Vaporetto system!). My main criticism - the first stop in Murano was (almost) hurt by a very very unnecessary stop in the store as we first arrived on the island. Just watch the glass blowing- and - do as we did- ESCAPE the store and explore! You only have a short time and wasting any of it in the overly touristy store as you arrive is silly! Use their boat- but don't follow their commercial ploy to trap you!

Burano was beautiful and worth the trip on its own. The glass factory exhibition showed the real skill involved. Good commentary and very reasonable price.
