Not sure this was superior to visiting the islands on our own

3.00Not enough communication about deleting parts of the trip promised on the Viator product page (or perhaps those are no longer parts of the tour, but I think they may have been cut due to rain without communication). Didn't love how we were funneled through a glass shop with expectant sales people chatting me up about 6k-30k euro pieces. Made me feel like a mark. We did enjoy the demonstration, which is what we signed up for--be aware they have a tip plate out at the studio, so if you want to tip (unclear who it is for--the "master," the assistant, the guy narrating the whole process), bring the appropriate denominations with you. We also enjoyed Burano, for the most part. It is a quick stop, so you have just enough time to walk the length of the "main drag" and perhaps grab a quick bite or gelato, or coffee, but there isn't much time also for shopping, if that's what you are looking to do (beware the lace products can also be much more expensive than you might expect).
Great tour, the...

3.00The glass demonstration was okay. Glass tour guide was a bit hard to understand. Our boat tour guide, Julia, was very good.

5.00The guide was friendly and the ride was smooth. The free time at Burano was great. The duration of the tour is also great. If you start in the morning, you come back at around 2 or 3 which is very helpful for doing other activities in the day.
