A 4-hour morning cruise from Venice to Murano and Burano for glass and lace demos, plus quick waterfront wandering and lagoon views.

“Great boat ride around Venice. Leonardo was our guide, and he was fantastic. He gave us great information as he boated us around, made sure our Prosecco glasses were always full, and was a lot of fun! Would absolutely do this again.”

“CHILLED out jazz musician and relaxing panoramic sail. wonderful trip overlooking venice and the lagoon”
Cruise Venice’s lagoon by catamaran with classical music and a free drink. 90 minutes, lots of space, and easy island views.
“Loved this cruise! They switched between classic and classic rock music lol but it was amazing. Loved seeing Venice this way. Much easier than walking and easier for my mom with mobility issues to get into than a gondola. Loved the drinks and snacks. If in Venice again I would do this tour again even though I’ve already done it. Very relaxing after a long day.”
Sunset wooden-boat cruise from Venice to Burano and Torcello with iced prosecco, local stories by Davide, and optional Gatto Nero dinner.
“Davide è un ragazzo che conosce bene Venezia e i suoi segreti, te li racconta con il tipico accento veneziano in maniera chiara. È molto gentile e disponibile ad accogliere qualsiasi richiesta, mi son trovato veramente bene!”
A 50-minute private Venice lagoon cruise for sunset views, San Marco Basin sights, and a romantic aperitif moment near Giudecca.
“Es una actividad que no sirve para nada. Te llevan en una lancha apenas de tres personas. Lo peor es que no vas a ver absolutamente nada. Solo te llevan por la laguna en la zona industrial porque no tiene permitida la entrada por lo canales de Venecia . Que es lo que el turista desea ver. No lo recomiendo encima cuesta 250€ es una barbaridad. La barca se movía y era muy pequeña e inestable hasta el punto que parece que te vas caer. El chico por la contra muy majo y agradable.”
