Description

After a fascinating boat ride through the nature-dominated lagoon, the first stop on the tour is the island of Murano, world-renowned for its glass art

You will visit a furnace where you can watch a demonstration of glassmaking. During the visit you will also have the opportunity to purchase a piece of local production. 

 

The tour will then continue to Burano, famous for its lace-making and brightly coloured fishermen's houses. Stepping off the boat you will find yourself surrounded by nature and after a short walk you will arrive at the island's main square.

 

Arriving on this island for lunchtime you will also have the chance to choose one of the picturesque spots for a quick lunch (not included in the ticket price) while experiencing the relaxed atmosphere of this place. 

 

You will be accompanied throughout the experience by a tour guide who will provide you with on-board information and assistance on the islands.
