About this experience
This tour offers five hours in the most authentic Venice, away from the crowds and crowded tourist routes. The experience takes place on board an elegant, spacious and comfortable boat, perfect for couples and families who want to relax and live the lagoon in total tranquility. For the duration of the tour you will be accompanied by a Venetian Local Guide, born and raised in Venice, who will stay with you for five hours. It is not a standard visit: the Guide customizes the story according to your group, sharing stories, traditions and curiosities of the Venice Lagoon that only those who live it every day can know. Unlike traditional tours, you'll sail in quiet, uncrowded areas, between lesser-known canals and islands, without thousands of people around. The pace is slow and relaxed, designed to savour every moment. An experience signed Venice Voyage, ideal for those seeking quality, authenticity and a very special memory of Venice.

Nice escape from the busy crowds of Venice
Our tour guide Francisco was great! The glass blowing was amazing. Just a little caution with the glass blowing afterwards it is very high pressure selling of the glass, and the glass was not cheap. Had the best lunch we had in Venice on Burano island thanks to our guide’s recommendation.

Even with some rain in...
Even with some rain in the day, Francisco gave us an awesome tour of Murano and Burano. He knew so much about the history, gave us flexibility to craft a perfect morning, and he was so friendly and helpful with great recommendations! I definitely would recommend this tour!

This review is all about our guide, Michael. He was outstanding and went out of his way to make sure we had a memorable day! Burano and Murano were great but our memory will be Michael.

Why this scores 48
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Island Tour: Murano and Burano: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Venice.
How much does Private Island Tour: Murano and Burano cost?
+
Prices start at $899 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Venice usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Island Tour: Murano and Burano take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Venice is not rushed.
Is Private Island Tour: Murano and Burano worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 48 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Venice, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Island Tour: Murano and Burano?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Island Tour: Murano and Burano suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Island Tour: Murano and Burano?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Venice can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Venice and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Island Tour: Murano and Burano start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Venice within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Venice?
+
On Outty we rank every Venice experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Pasta and Tiramisu Cooking Class with Wine in Venice, Eating Venice Small Group Food & Drinks Tour, Venice Bacaro Food Tour: Eat and Drink like a Venetian. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Venice?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Venice?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
