FROM THE BIRTH OF GLASS TO THE MAGICAL COLORED ISLAND.

Away from the tourist routes, Murano and Burano preserve authentic Venetian traditions. This excursion leaves the city centre behind, letting you enjoy the calm atmosphere of the lagoon.

• First stop: MURANO, world-famous for glassmaking. Enjoy a private visit to a studio to watch the masters and admire traditional and modern designs.

• Continue to BURANO, known for its colourful houses and handmade lace. A pleasant walk lets you discover the island’s charm, the most picturesque in the lagoon.

• Enjoy a local lunch with fresh fish, homemade pasta, and typical “buranelli” cookies.

• On the way back, pass San Francesco del Deserto, the first Franciscan monastery in the lagoon, an oasis of peace since 1220.
