Let's escape from the crowd and indulge into the quiet beauty of the northern lagoon! Among the many islands of the lagoon, many of which have disappeared, the three most important ones deserve a visit: Murano's fame is due to a traditional production of glass that had been concentrated here since the 13th century. The island of Burano remained for centuries a fishing village, but grew in importance for the activity of lace-making, the small colored houses and the perfect union of water, man and environment. Torcello, very close to Burano, remains - almost desert - an important centre of the origins of the Venetian state: the visitor is immediately struck from the peace of the environment and the extreme nobility of the 11th/12th century architecture of the sacred buildings. This tour can be customized according to your wishes.
* Our tour starts directly at your hotel dock, or in S. Mark square * With a short ride we'll arrive in Murano, where we'll visit an authentic glass factory; masters show you what they are able to make with an ancient and unique technique . You'll have the possibility to buy souvenirs or order an unique piece at the gallery. * Once done in Murano, with an half hour boat trip we'll be in Burano. After a nice stroll through the colored houses and the incredible views of the lagoon, you'll have the pleasure to visit the lady artists who literally invent fabric with lace. * Some minutes away by boat from Burano stands Torcello, the proof of how Venice looked like at the beginning. In this island live only 7 people and you will feel like lost in time, while visiting the church of S. M. Assunta or simply walking among the relics of the ancient civilization. * Tour ends where it began.

We will use public tranport. Only the ride to Murano will be by watertaxi which is free, offered by the glass factory. Then, we'll use public transportation unless we decide last minute we want to call a watertaxi.
