What To Expect
Enjoy a wonderful excursion aboard an elegant boat, with a hostess providing insights throughout the journey, guiding you through the Venetian Lagoon and its most beautiful islands: Murano and Burano.
Leaving Piazza San Marco behind, you will head towards the northern part of the Venetian Lagoon, reaching Murano, the first stop of the day. Famous since the 1200s for its sophisticated glassmaking, you will visit the town and watch a live glassblowing demonstration where master artisans shape vases, glasses, and other beautiful creations, reflecting Murano's rich tradition.
After Murano, we will make our way to Burano, renowned for its brightly colored fishermen's houses. According to legend, these houses were painted in vivid hues to be visible in the dense winter fog. Walking through the town, you'll see elderly women meticulously making lace by hand and have the chance to sample the local dessert.
