What to expect

Sail to discover the fascinating islands of the Venetian lagoon, get enchanted by their stories and settings suspended between the past and the present with the help of the audio guides.

Starting from Venezia Santa Lucia railway station, travel towards Murano where the making of artistic glass still takes place today at the hands of skilled craftsmen. Take part in a demonstration by a Master Glass Blower inside a real furnace, which preserves and passes on the artistic and technical heritage of this ancient art. Spend 1 hour, in which the audio guide will lead you to discover the monuments and iconic places of the island: the lighthouse, Palazzo da Mula, the churches of San Pietro Martire and Santa Maria e San Donato and, finally, the Glass Museum. Search for the lampposts in love, they’re said to bring luck in love.

Then reach Burano, an old fishing village worldwide famous for its colourful houses, the lace production and the pastry making. You will be given 1 hour of free time: you can get lost in the streets and squares of Burano, trying to capture the best shots of the colourful houses, or you can follow the route given by the audio guide, which will allow you to visit historical places and magical places such as the House of Bepi Suà.

Admire the crooked bell tower and be tempted by the typical pastry shops, where you can taste the biscuits "Bussolà" and "Esse".

Finally, finish your journey at the tour starting point.
