Fantastic tour

Elisa was our tour guide and she's wonderful. Very good English, pleasant and what a great personality. She was great with our 7 yr old. Request her and you won't be disappointed.

Amazing guide. Extremely knowledgeable and made the tour unforgettable. Highly recommended

The tour was fabulous and our tour guide Francesca was very knowledgeable. She made the tour wonderful.

Thoroughly enjoyable day done at a reasonable pace rather than some that rush you around. Our guide was very helpful and added a lot of information about Venice and its development as well as detailed information about Murano and Burano. Group wasn't too big so no issue hearing guide or fitting into the areas we went into. Boat used was of a very good standard

Very awesome tour!

*** did a super job!

The half day afternoon tour was one of the highlights of visiting Venice. Alessandra was our tour guide and she provided well informed commentary. Not only did this cover Murano and Burano, but Venice generally. She encouraged questions and made our tour entertaining.

It was a small intimate group which felt the right size to enjoy watching the glass blowing at Murano, and lace making at Burano. There was plenty of time to look at the Murano glass gallery and purchase a piece of art. There are 7 gallery areas to look through. Prices reflect the complexity of the piece.

The lacemaking at Burano was a pleasure to watch. There was less time viewing the process compared with Glass blowing. Burano is a pretty little island and worthwhile having a visit for this alone, with brightly painted houses.

We travelled first class in a fast motor boat out to the islands by Marco at the helm.

Emanuela was very knowledgeable. Throughout the whole tour she explained not only about Murano and Burano but also general interesting facts about Venice and the whole region.

Emanuuela is outstanding!!!! She was attentive, engaging, informative and personalized the information ba<x>sed on our interests and questions. She kept our 13 year old's attention the entire time and even found a nickname for him that made us laugh and was so special. To top it off, she sent an email to our hotel (she rememebred where we were staying!) to provide more information for our tour the following day. She spent a lot of extra time with us after the tour and really made our trip to Venice, Murano and Burano so memorable! She is an excellent ambassador and representative for Dark Rome tours! We feel like we have a friend in Venice!

Tour was excellent, but not eneough time at Murano to explore other glass producers.

Giula really knew the area. She was very engaging and derermined that all our questions about Venice be answered . Her English was very good.

Kristina was fantastic! She provided so much information, was flexible about accommodating schedules, and was extremely friendly. She made the experience excellent!

Excellent tour, lovely way to see the islands and Paula was wonderful, going out of her way to make sure we each got the best of Venice. Fabulous.

Kristina was excellent and helpful all throughout the tour. She was very knowledgeable in giving information about Venice and the neighboring islands. She spoke good English and did not require any sc<x>ript.

Kristina was very helpful even with general information about Venice. She was fluent in English and provided lots of useful information.
