Leuke tour, de gids was erg enthousiast. Vooral Burano vonden wij zeker de moeite, we hadden op beide eilanden genoeg vrije tijd om rustig rond te kijken.

It was good, I wish the glass and lace demonstrations were longer. Felt a little tourist-trappy, more than educational. But in all it was a good price to get to see the 2 beautiful islands.
