Traditional boat ride to Burano

We took the sultan to the island of Burano for lunch at the Trattoria da Romano! Our only regret is that we didn’t book the sultan for the entire day! Our captain was fun, knowledgeable and explained different areas of the lagoon on our way from Venice to Burano. We sipped Prosecco under the canopy and enjoyed the tour and ride. I cannot recommend this enough!

Beautiful experience

We booked with a group of friends. Unforgettable experience in the wonderful Venice lagoon. Tommaso and Leonardo are really nice and competent, two true Venetians who entertained us and told us stories and traditions of the lagoon and its islands. An extra point as it had been hot and an awning was put up which gave us shade. The boat is simply splendid. We will not fail to return
