Great way to explore some of the lagoon that is only accessible by kayak, Filippo the tour guide was very informative and a really nice guy. He made the tour feel alot more personal. I also did another more popular tour which was rated higher but hardly as good.
Thankyou Filippo!
Thankyou Filippo!
Ahhh to be truly "on the water". Glide over two feet of clear lagoon water and see what it was before "we" got here.

Best Venetian experience. Fillipo was excellent. The tour was inspiring. Learned a lot of history. If you miss this opportunity, you miss a part of this area unspoiled by "tourists". Do yourself a huge favor. Book this tour. It is unparalleled.
We didn’t expect this: FANTASTIC

Fillipo was an excellent guide with lots of local knowledge and information. We found out about the beautiful racing gondolas in the boat yard and thoroughly enjoyed kayaking through the quiet, hidden away lagoon waterways. We saw wild flamingos, locals using traditional fishing methods and curious goats, it was like stepping back in time. Fabulous, memorable tour, highly recommended

Amazing experience! Our guide Filippo was great, had a lot of patience when teaching us to kayak and explained lots about Burano to us. This Kayak tour is a must do!
