- lewisl6950 contributionsRecommend doing this tour.Enjoyed all three islands for their own uniqueness. Murano to see the glass blowing master and a little bit of the town; Burano to see some lace making as well as lots of shops and colourful buildings; Torcello for the walk to the church and statues that remain as history.Written October 22, 2024
- rlovelace660 contributionsBeautiful IslandsGreat boat trip nice having a ride to the islands loved Murano and Burano and would have wanted more time there and would have preferred not do Torcello.Written October 1, 2024

- LizaP990 contributions-Unfortunately, our plane was delayed and Tripadvisor would not help us as it was within 24hours. Will not be booking through them again. Not happyWritten September 5, 2024
- 887janettal0 contributionsNot worth the $Real waist of money.. a 20 min around the block in traffic with other gondolas. Take you $ elsewhere. No private tour touch at all.. could have done it without prior booking and for lesser price.Written July 11, 2024
- AngelM11060 contributionsGetYourGuide Fiasco not to be repeatedI bought these tickets online & received a ‘ticket’ which could be downloaded to my Apple wallet BUT then found these were not entry tickets and needed to be changed at a location in the square on the day. Despite given directions to find a specific souvenir stand to make the exchange, we found it difficult to locate! Staff at Doge’s could not help us so we walked the entire area in boiling heat, searching and asking several shop assistants until we finally located right over the other side of St Marks Square down a side road…and eventually changed our ‘ticket’ for an actual ‘entry paper ticket’ then having to walk back to Doge’s skip-the-line queue to finally get in. The experience was frustrating and stressful, one we would not repeat. Unfortunately I’d also bought tickets for the Basilica from GetYourGuide and again ‘tickets’ had to be changed but this time by relying on WhatsApp to send the real entry. The entire thing was bizarre and frustrating. We have traveled all over the world and never known anything like it. In future I will buy entry tickets from the venue directly.Written July 3, 2024
- MarisiaMuir0 contributions1 hr Venetian mask paintingThis was a great activity! Good one for a family. We choose a mask to paint and spent an hour doing it. I was hoping for a bit more explanation of the art of mask making and examples to help the children do theirs. For the price, an hour was quite quick. If we had 1.5 hrs, I would have chosen a bigger mask and enjoyed it more.Written June 24, 2024
- L8377FFmichaelp0 contributionsTerrible experienceWe were quite disappointed when we got to Rome's train station and found our train canceled because of a rail strike which we knew nothing about. We called right away to tell them we were unable to get to Venice and they refused to give us a refund because it was past their 24 hour deadline. Evidently this rail strike was planned and we had no way to know that. Trip advisor/Viator also refused a refund. Please check ahead of time and don't let this happen to you!Written June 23, 2024
- KathyG310 contributionsA Golden Duck Venetian Mask was CreatedPainting my Venetian mask was such a fun and relaxing experience on a warm hectic day in Venice. I had a lot of choices of masks to chose from and a large choice of paints to create my own unique mask. A family with young children joined me and it was fun to watch them have just as much fun as I did and for them to be successful in creating a treasured souvenir.Written June 22, 2024
- oliviamW8430UK0 contributionsI would not recommend this tour company.I would not recommend this tour company. My family and I arrived 15 minutes early at the meeting site. I asked about 10 people if they were the tour guide for the palace tour. About 5 people said they didn't understand English and 5 said no. I also did not see any sign for the tour. We missed the tour and we were still charged for the tour. I contacted the company for a refunded because it was not my fault I could not find the tour guide.Written June 17, 2024
- TMG200 contributionsExcellent tour with a knowledgeable guideWe really enjoyed this tour and Sarah our guide was excellent and knowledgeable. It lasted about 3 hours, starting in Doge’s Palace and ending in St Mark’s Basilica. There was time to look around and take photographs with a break for a drink etc.Written June 15, 2024
- 584raman0 contributionsOkay experience.It was an okay tour. Definitely just a little overrated compared to how they described it. It was less than 1/2 hour and the driver did not interact at all. It also is cheaper if u buy there. I would do once. We had it better in BelgiumWritten June 8, 2024
