It's not easy to figure out which is the best Venice tour on TripAdvisor, but we found this one perfect for us: hotel pickup, customized itinerary, skip the line to Saint Mark's basilica, and a leisurely boat tour to visit a beautiful glassworks in Murano . We recommend it! The skip the line for the basilica of Saint Mark was very appreciated.

One of the Best food and beverages and also good atmosphere here.
