Murano, Burano & Torcello

The best experience to learn about the old arts of Murano and Burano islands in the Venice lagoon and to discover the place where the first Venice was founded in 421 A.D.

From your hotel by private Water Taxi we will go directly to one of the oldest original Murano Glass Factory where you will live the glass blowing art, with the chance to see a Master glassblower and his team working following a millennial tradition.

Then navigating through the historical lagoon, we will reach Burano island, famous for its lace work and the colourful atmosphere. Walking through picturesque houses, tasting the typical “bussolai” (famous cookies of the island), feeling like a local.

Last but not least, an insightful guided visit into an historical hand-made lace workshop. The last stop of this authentic experience will be Torcello island, today a virtually deserted nature reserve, where the beautiful Basilica di Santa Maria Assunta boasts some of the most impressive Byzantine mosaics this side of Istanbul.

Finally back to your Hotel for an outstanding view of the lagoon.
