Murano Glass & Burano Lace Islands Boat Tour
Murano has produced the world's finest glass for 700 years, after Venice moved its furnaces there to prevent city fires. A glass master demonstrates the ancient techniques of Venetian glassblowing in a centuries-old furnace. Burano, an hour further into the lagoon, is a fishing village of extraordinary painted houses, each a different bold colour, the streets a photographer's dream.
What you'll do
- Murano glass master demonstration
