Trips & tickets
Lagoon tours look similar but differ in time on each island and what is included. These are the ones that genuinely differ, and what to check.
A guided boat from several Venice boarding points, a live glassblowing demonstration on Murano and up to 1.5 hours on each island. Torcello is an option.
A morning or afternoon boat to Murano and Burano with a guide on board, a glass-factory visit and a panoramic terrace for the crossing.
A private boat from Venice to a Murano glass workshop, then Burano's lace-makers and painted houses.
A vaporetto reserved for your group instead of the public ferries, a glassblowing demonstration and lace-making on Burano.
A 20-minute factory visit on Murano: a master glassblower at work, a sculpting demonstration and a EUR 10 shop credit. Getting to Murano is up to you.
The full GetYourGuide listing for Murano and Burano — guided boat tours, glass-blowing demonstrations and private trips from Venice, with live prices.
A half-day tour splits a few hours across two or three islands. Compare how long each stop actually lasts.
Glass demonstrations are often held in a showroom that also sells glass. Know what to expect before you go.
If you plan several lagoon trips, a transport pass may beat a tour. Check before booking.
