I very much enjoyed my tour with Filippo and can only recommend it to anybody else! It's a great option to get away from all the masses in Venezia and really appreciate the lagune's nature. First you will learn more about rowing traditions in Venezia, than the kayaking tour starts through the protected and hidden areas of Burano and more. Very nice and calming! Just to clarify for anybody interested, since I've seen confusion in other comments: This booking is for the tour with Filippo, but then you need additional 30€ in cash for the rowing school to rent your kayak. I recommend this to anybody looking for an authentic and slow non-touristic experience in Vienna and had a great time myself!

This tour was the highlight of our Venice trip and the ur tour guide was wonderful. Filippo was very helpful and provided a relaxing and insightful kayak trip. We even got to see Flamingos in the lagoon. Would 100% visit again.

After a couple days in tourist-clogged Venice, it was an absolute treat to board an early morning vaporetto for Burano where I met my guide Filippo at the vaporetto stop. Together we strolled through the quiet and colorful streets of Burano to the local rowing club. After a briefing on Burano, the local fishing community and the award-winning Buranese gondoliers, we launched our kayaks and set off on our tour of Burano, Mazzorbo, and Torchello, traveling through tranquil canals only reachable by kayak and with a local guide. While we did not see flamingos on this trip, we did see a number of bird species and wild goats as we glided through marshes and down the Torchello canal that Hemingway dubbed "Paradise."
