DESCRIPTION
▼ MORE INFO
Private customizable tour to admire and experience the best of the Venetian Lagoon islands of Murano and Burano with your local expert guide and private speedboat sailing along the Grand canal and the minor canals.
You will visit Murano, the island of Venice famous for its glass processing.
In Murano you will visit a workshop of a true Venetian master glassmaker to admire him at work as he creates his works of art. Murano's fame as a center for glass processing began in 1291 when the Republic of Venice ordered glassmakers to transfer their foundries to Murano to avoid the risk of fire and destruction of the wooden houses in Venice.
Burano, the most colorful island of Venice famous for its lace and quaint fishermen's houses painted in bright pastel colors, legend has it that since Burano was a fishing village on an island, the bright color of their houses probably helped fishermen to locate them from afar even in fog.
In Burano you will appreciate a visit to lace making who still work lace according to the ancient tradition.
