Murano, Burano and Venice Boat Tour from Venice Train Station

About this activity

This full-day boat tour is perfect for those who reach Venice by car or by train: the embarkation point is very close to Venice train station.

During the navigation, an expert tour guide will share with you anecdotes of Murano and Burano islands, while you'll enjoy a breathtaking view of Venice lagoon from the panoramic deck.

The boat leaves from the train station area to reach St Mark’s bay, where it welcomes other guests and then leaves for Murano.

In Murano, first stop of the tour, you have the chance to visit a glass factory and see master glassmakers at work.

Burano, second stop, can be called ‘ the rainbow island’ thanks to its inhabitants’ unique houses. Here you have some free time to stroll among colourful streets and taste typical dishes and biscuits.

Then, the boat takes you to Venice Riva degli Schiavoni, not far from St Mark’s Square. Here you will have 50 minutes at your disposal to visit St Mark’s Square, then a shuttle boat will take you back to Venice Train Station.
