Venice in a Day Tour with Gondola Ride

Cruise the Venetian lagoon to Murano for glassblowing demonstrations, then continue to Burano for its lace shops and painted fishermen's houses. Half day boat tours cover both islands, private charters set their own pace, and the Ultimate Venice in a Day option pairs the islands with a full city tour. You can also add Torcello or Mazzorbo to the route, or stay on Murano for a glass workshop and walking tour. Every departure leaves from central Venice.

Murano and Burano

Getting to Murano Island must be done by boat.  You can take a water taxi which may cost eighty to a hundred euro each way, take a Vaporetto (water bus), which may cost around 10€ each way, or join a tour.  We recommend tours because they are priced reasonably, and a friendly local guide curates your experience!

Expect a full demonstration on Murano island by professional glass blowers who have passed down the trade through generations. After, you'll pass through a glass-blowing museum or showroom and have the opportunity to purchase a souvenir if you like.  Yes, this portion of the tour can feel a bit commercial, but this is the culture amongst the factories of Murano Island, and you are not required to purchase anything. 

Many tours also include visiting Burano Island, known for lace makers.  It's a beautiful place full of colorful houses and rich culture.  These islands are part of Venice, although they are not so close to the central island cluster with St Mark's Square. All the tours include transportation from a central meeting point in Venice to all your destinations and back to the main island cluster of Venice. 

Watch a glassblowing demonstration and wander the painted fishermen's houses on half-day boat trips, private tours, and full-day city combos
