Murano and Burano Half-Day Private Tour

The Venetian lagoon is made up of 118 islands; 2 of them hold the secrets of two ancient manufacturing arts: glass blowing and lace making. We will meet at your hotel and with a water taxi we will reach Murano, where we'll visit one of the certified Murano glass factories where, since 1000 years ago expert glass masters shape the glass to produce works of art that embellish many places around the world (for example the Royal Palace in Thailand ). Another taxi will take us to the fishing village of Burano with its wonderful coloured houses. Get your camera ready, cause every small house will enchant you and you will want to take pictures of them all. We will visit a lace atelier where one of the few lace makers left on the island will show you how they patiently make beautiful tablecloths, runners, and doilies only using needle and cotton threads. We will taste the traditional cookies of the island: bussolà, and finally, we will catch a taxi to go back.
