Itinerary

Day 1

4-hour private boat tour with hotel/apartment pickup on Venice island (San Marco / Santa Lucia station options). The itinerary follows the listed agenda: Murano then Burano, with shuttle boat between islands and a return private speedboat to your Venice island accommodation.

Pickup and visit to Murano (island of glass masters)

09:00 – 11:00 • 2h

Your private speedboat will collect you from your hotel, apartment, or one of the principal meeting points on Venice island (San Marco area, Santa Lucia train station or a central hotel pier). Transfer to Murano, guided walk to key glassmaking spots and a short glass demonstration area. The Murano segment finishes with the included shuttle boat (factory shuttle) connection toward Burano.

Isola di Murano, 30141 Murano, Venice, Italy

Tips from local experts:

  • Confirm pickup location (hotel pier, San Marco vaporetto pier, or Santa Lucia station dock) with the operator on the morning of the tour so the boat can plan the most direct route.
  • Bring a lightweight jacket or scarf for the crossing; spring weather can be breezy on open water even on mild days.
  • For photos, ask your guide for a short canal-side stop away from the main tourist cluster — Murano has quieter canals near local furnaces that provide nicer backgrounds.

Explore Burano (colorful fishermen's village) and return to Venice

11:00 – 12:45 • 1h 45m

Arrive in Burano via the shuttle boat from Murano. Guided time to stroll the island's colorful facades, main canal and lace-making areas at a relaxed pace ideal for couples. After the visit, board the private speedboat for the return transfer to your Venice island hotel or agreed drop-off point.

Burano, 30142 Venice, Italy

Tips from local experts:

  • Carry small change and a phone for quick photos; Burano's bright houses are best photographed in soft morning light—choose quiet side streets for intimate shots.
  • If you want a short quiet pause, request the guide to time the shoreline walk away from the main bridge where local fishermen sometimes tie small boats.
  • Wear comfortable shoes — Burano has uneven pavements and short stone bridges; plan for gentle walking rather than long hikes.
