What travellers agree on

Three themes run through nearly every listing. The glassblowing is consistently praised and consistently described as short. Burano surprises people who booked for Murano. And the departures that rate highest are the ones that leave the most time ashore, not the ones that visit the most islands.

The complaints are as consistent: sound systems on the larger boats, a Torcello stop that some travellers expected and did not get, and a furnace visit that ends in a showroom. All three are avoidable if you read the island time and the option you are selecting before you pay.
