    Absolutely amazing experience

    "We truly enjoyed our experience and memories on Venice’s islands: Burano, Murano, and Mazzorbo with our guide Nicoletta. We got to see the private Murano glass workshop and art galleries which was amazing and so beautiful. We saw the beautiful colorful Burano island. We are so grateful for all the gems, history and experience that Nicoletta shared with us. Do not hesitate, book your tour with Nicoletta to visit these islands. "

    Loris is the best!

    "We had a wonderful day trip to Murano & Burano with Loris. He was so helpful even before we met sharing that there was a festival in town & how we could best enjoy it. He was very accommodating and knowledge. He even arranged a special lunch for our two families in advance. By the end of the day, he felt like an old friend. He shared many restaurant suggestions with us that were all excellent. He exceeded our expectations. "

    Murano & Burano wigh Olimpia

    "Olimpia is a fantastic tour guide, I highly recommend her! We did the day trip to Murano and Burano with my two teenage sons. We were in the latter part of our trip so the historical facts got to be a bit much so Olimpia entertained us with fun local facts instead. She was also very conscious of my son’s nut allergy and helped us to navigate restaurant options. Overall a really great experience! "

    Excellence

    "We toured Mazzurbo, Burano, and Murano today with Lori’s. This was our second tour with him and once again he did a fantastic job planning the day. The pacing was very good; he planned breaks for coffee and made sure we got to see the beautiful hidden sights of the islands. Loris knows so much about the history of Venice, about the culture of the different islands around Venice, and about food and wine. He took us to a wonderful little restaurant on the island of Murano and then we toured a very unique glass shop. We grew fond of his leadership and companionship. The next time we come to Venice we hope to go on more tours with Loris."

    Great Day in Murano/Burano with Loris!

    "Loris was incredibly accommodating to our scheduling needs, both in advance (re-arranged tour configuration for us) and as the day went on (we were tired from the day prior). He was a wealth of knowledge and enjoyable to be around. He is very communicative and responsive, and has great English. Would book with Loris again!"

    Wonderful Island Tour

    "Our tour of the Venice Islands with Claudia was excellent. At a relaxed pace, Claudia provided a very informative commentary throughout. She arranged the order of visiting the islands to visit each when crowds were least, which made the tour even better. We loved the visits to the selected lace shop and museum and the glass blowing, which were both unique in the breadth of their products and displays, and also very informative on their craft. Claudia is a passionate Venetian and a great tour leader. We highly recommend her."

Your Unforgettable Burano Day Trip

Escape to a real-life rainbow! A Burano day trip from Venice is a must-do. Imagine wandering through streets painted in every color imaginable. With a local guide, your Burano day trip will be magical.

  • A History Painted on Your Burano Day Trip

    Ever wonder why Burano is so colorful? Legend says fishermen painted their homes in bright hues to spot them from the sea, even in thick fog. A truly vibrant history for an unforgettable Burano day trip!

  • The Culture of Lace on a Burano Day Trip

    Burano is world-famous for its delicate, handmade lace. This intricate art form, dating back to the 16th century, is a cornerstone of the island's culture. See the tradition live on your Burano day trip.

  • Taste the Sweet Side of Burano

    No Burano day trip is complete without tasting 'bussolai buranei'. These 'S' or 'O' shaped buttery biscuits are a local delicacy, perfect with a coffee while you soak in the island's unique atmosphere.

  • The Secret Rules of Burano's Colors

    The island has a strict color scheme! If a resident wants to paint their house, they must send a request to the government, who will reply with the specific colors permitted for that lot. A local secret!

  • Burano's Leaning Bell Tower

    The island's leaning bell tower of San Martino church is a quirky landmark. Caused by subsiding land, its noticeable tilt adds another layer of charm to the picture-perfect views on your Burano day trip.
