Day Trip Options
During the booking process, you can choose between two options. Both options commence and conclude at Calle de la Rasse, accompanied by an English-speaking guide.
Murano & Burano Day Trip (4.5 Hours)
At the designated time, we will convene outside Palazzo Cornoldi to begin our journey with a water taxi ride to Murano, one of the most notable islands in the Venetian lagoon. The ride offers mesmerizing views of the water, neighboring islands, and elegant palaces.
Upon arrival, we'll proceed to witness an authentic glass-blowing show, where a skilled local craftsman will perform a glass-blowing demonstration. This traditional experience will surely leave a lasting impression.
Following the demonstration, we'll navigate through the maze-like streets of Murano to discover the rich history of the town and its celebrated glass-making trade. An enchanting stroll awaits!
Our next stop will be the island of Burano, known for its vibrant colors and picturesque scenery, perfect for photography. Here, you'll enjoy a traditional lace-making demonstration, showcasing an authentic craft of the region. After a total of 4.5 hours of exploration, we’ll return to Venice to conclude our experience.
Murano, Burano, & Torcello Day Trip (5.5 Hours)
With this option, we will follow the same itinerary as described previously; however, you will have additional time to appreciate Burano. Afterward, we will venture to the nearby island of Torcello.
Torcello is regarded as the elder sister of the Venetian Lagoon. During its peak, it was more populous than Venice. Its significant landmark is the Church of Santa Maria Assunta, renowned for its Byzantine mosaics. We will also visit the famous Devil’s Bridge, a walkway without railings enveloped in legends.
