Awesome Boat Tour of the Venetian Islands

Published on Oct, 2021

We had a great day out in the lagoon visiting the islands. Each island is distinct and very interesting. Our guide, Barbara, was amazing! She is knowledgeable, fun, and enthusiastic. She took into consideration our needs and adapted her program to please us. We enjoyed our time out - it went by way too quickly.

Fabulous day out on the water

Published on Jul, 2019

Best way to explore those beautiful islands as you can go at your leisure. Get your skipper & tour guide to pick you up from your hotel if possible and have them drop you off at their local lunch place to avoid tourist crowds.

Samuel and our boat driver made the day quite special. He was very knowledgeable with the entire area and listened to our needs.
He set us up with the experts in the fields of Glass making and Linen embroidery.
We enjoyed lunch together and shared some stories.
