5.00Giovanni was an amazing tour guide and provided some excellent recommendations and Murano was a fantastic experience! We spent 7+ hours exploring the island and barely scratched the surface.

5.00Pickup at hotel was really nice. The glass blowing demonstration was great, and we left with a pair of glass birds my wife loved. Then we got a trip around the island. Our guide was very helpful and knowledgeable.

5.00Great tour guide, Julia. She picked us up from our hotel. Was very knowledgable and we learnt a lot not only about Murano but also a lot of interesting facts about Venice. The glass factory was a must see and was amazing to watch the artists to their work. 100% would recommend.

5.00We were met at our hotel by the tour guide who took us thru a tour of several sites along the way to our private boat to take us to Moreno. The tour at the Moreno glass works was fascinating. Their most accomplished artist demonstrated how to make a vase. The cost was worth the experience. Our tour guide was very friendly and we had a good time.
Get think twice- Book It!

5.00Everything from the tour guide and water taxi , the exceptional guide and outstanding glass factory demo was 5 star. It was hide tide and the knowledgeable guide was experienced enough to make a seamless pivot to get us across the lagoon as planned. The master talent of Christian and thorough explanation and kind, thoughtful partnering brosing their showrooms was no pressure- total delight! Highly recommend the tour the guide and the beautiful artistry of expertly crafted Murano glass!
