Amazing beauty and exploration
gracesfsf, 24-10-2022
What an incredible way to see the islands of the Venetian lagoon! We rented a gorgeous wooden boat custom loaded with Prosecco, waters and snacks for our day. Jean-Paul gave detailed instructions on where to go, what to do and how to safely operate the boat. We meandered through beautiful canals, out in the lagoon and around multiple islands. We moored at Sant Erasmo and wandered to the Orto Vineyard. We then made it to Mazzorbo to dock and walk over to Burano for snacks and a lovely walk. This was such an amazing way to see sights of Venice without crowds. We would definitely book again.
Excellent way to beat the summer heat.

Excellent experience- staff was friendly and accommodating. Booked a 4 hr self propel boat for 930a but woke up to rain. Called and company allowed us to switch to 12n as rain was due to end late morning. JP was amazing. He was so personable, provide thorough instructions and guidance and suggestions.
Boats were great, easy to operate. Route was relaxing, great way to beat the summer heat. Stopped at an island for lunch and a swim. College aged sons enjoyed the entire experience.
Highly recommend!
Venice lagoon by boat it's awesome

We've rented a boat before, in Greece, and because the experience was really nice, we wanted to experience the Venice version of that. Everything was seamless, there's a short training explaining you the do's and don't's and off you go. For me, the only thing that took a bit to get a handle of, was the mooring part, but if after my 2nd and 3rd attempts, everything was perfect.
We've went on the shortest trip 4 hour one, on a Sunday afternoon so we've had quite a little bit of traffic, which can be intimidating sometimes, since you're the slowest one out there and there's boats passing you at crazy speeds from time to time. Other than that, other boats are quick to give you enough space and it's only their slipstream that you have to handle.
All in all, It's was a great experience!
p.s. don't forget to bring a swimsuit, we forgot about this and it was so hot that we could've used a bath
Totally different experience of Venice

Everything from start to finish was a 5* experience. We rented a self drive electric motorboat for the whole day and was quite nervous as never having driven a boat before. However I cant praise the owner enough putting us right at ease and even came out to rescue us when our son messed up the navigation system. It is a whole different experience for Venice and I would highly recommend this to anyone. We will definitely be back next time we are in Venice.
***** above & beyond service!

Everything from start to finish was amazing - great booking system, quick & simple responses to any questions we had before arrival. Easy instructions on how to operate the boat and an amazing personal recommendations for the best places to head to. All of the staff were fantastic and so friendly - nothing was too much trouble and they really made the whole day so perfect! Thank you so much for having us, we will be back soon!
