Embark on a scenic cruise aboard a classic two-deck panoramic wooden boat, complete with reserved indoor and outdoor seating, and glide across the Venetian Lagoon in comfort.
It’s an easy and relaxing departure from the St. Mark’s area, where a multilingual assistant accompanies you and shares insights into Venetian life, history, and traditions along the way.
You’ll reach Murano after about 30 minutes, where there’s a visit to a local glass factory and a live glassblowing demonstration by a master glassmaker, explained in five different languages.
There’s then a continuation to Burano, the island famous for its brightly colored houses and charming atmosphere. You’ll enjoy free time to explore at your own pace—around one hour in summer and up to two and a half hours in winter—to wander the streets, admire traditional lace-making, or sample the island’s famous bussolai biscuits.
You’ll return to Venice with unforgettable memories of the lagoon and two of its most iconic islands.
