VIP Venice In a Day | Private St. Mark’s Basilica & Murano Glass Experience Reviews

A Day I’ll Never Forget

Venice has always been on my bucket list, and this tour surpassed every expectation. From the mosaics of St. Mark’s to the soft hum of the glass furnace on Murano, it was pure magic.

The Most Efficient and Enjoyable Day

For anyone short on time, this is ideal. We saw the key landmarks, cruised the canals, and had time to relax on Murano. Our guide’s knowledge made every stop meaningful.

Venice at Its Best

We booked this last minute and couldn’t believe how smoothly everything went. St. Mark’s glowing mosaics took my breath away. Murano’s glass artisans were the perfect finale.

Like Living Inside a History Book

Every stop came with an incredible story. Matteo was so animated, especially when describing the Doges’ court intrigues. The glassblowing felt like watching living history.

Relaxed and Beautifully Organized

No crowds, no stress—just beauty everywhere. Our guide took us through narrow alleys most tourists miss, then we cruised to Murano for a quiet afternoon. LivTours makes travel effortless.

Totally Immersive Experience

The route, stories, and pacing were perfect. We learned about Venice’s past rulers and then saw living artisans continuing its traditions on Murano. The contrast made it all feel alive.

The Highlight of Our Italy Trip

We took LivTours in Rome and Florence too, but Venice was the showstopper. Gozde was brilliant—warm, witty, and so knowledgeable. Watching the mosaics shimmer as sunlight streamed in was unforgettable.

Best Way to Understand Venice

I’d been to Venice before, but this tour finally made sense of its history and structure. Seeing it by both land and water gave such perspective. The Murano visit added a special, unexpected touch.

Great for Multi-Generational Travelers

We went with our adult kids and my mother, and everyone loved it. The private water taxi made getting around so easy, and the guide adjusted the pace for my mom. The Murano stop was her favorite.

Venice Unfolded Before Us

This tour gave me a completely new appreciation for Venice. The Bridge of Sighs was haunting, the mosaics breathtaking, and Murano’s artisans inspiring. Federico was a joy to spend the day with.
