Venice Beyond the Main Island

If you want to understand the full story of Venice, don’t skip this. Murano’s glass, Torcello’s ancient ruins, and Burano’s charm each show a different side of the city. Our guide Elena tied it all together beautifully. This private tour was worth every moment.

A True Highlight of Our Trip to Italy

We did several LivTours during our Italy trip, but this one stood out. It felt so personal, and our guide made sure we had time to enjoy each stop. Seeing where Casanova once roamed and artisans still create was an amazing mix of history and humanity.

From the heat of the glass furnaces to the cool sea breeze on the lagoon, this tour engaged every sense. Our guide, Alessandra, was funny and insightful. Burano’s colors, Torcello’s peace, Murano’s fire—it was the perfect Venetian contrast.

Romantic Island-Hopping for Two

My fiancé and I booked this as part of our honeymoon, and it was such a treat. Our private boat glided across the lagoon as the sun reflected off the water—absolutely stunning. The mix of history, craftsmanship, and color was unforgettable.

Beautiful Half-Day with a Knowledgeable Guide

This tour covered so much without feeling rushed. We especially appreciated learning how glassblowers keep their techniques secret—it’s like living history. Burano was my personal favorite; I could have stayed there all day taking photos.

The Best Way to See Murano, Burano, and Torcello

My husband and I loved this LivTours experience. The glassblowing demo in Murano was surprisingly intimate, and Torcello’s ancient church was hauntingly beautiful. Ending in Burano among its rainbow-colored houses felt like stepping into a painting. Worth every penny.

Calm, Color, and Culture in One Tour

After the crowds in Venice, this tour was a breath of fresh air. Torcello’s quiet beauty was a surprise, and the short walks on each island were manageable for my elderly mother. Burano was simply stunning—every corner looked like a postcard.

A Luxurious Glimpse of Venetian Life

Everything about this LivTours private tour felt seamless. From our hotel pickup to the water taxi rides, it was pure comfort. Our guide Silvia’s storytelling brought the islands to life—especially her anecdotes about the glass artisans’ families in Murano. A truly refined experience.

The Quiet Side of Venice

Our guide Santiago showed us a side of Venice I didn’t know existed. Murano’s glasswork was impressive, but Torcello’s almost abandoned feel was hauntingly beautiful. Ending the day in Burano was the perfect contrast—bright, busy, and joyful.
