Amazing experience - It was an amazing experience where we learnt a lot of new things. My favourite place was the glass factory since they showed us the process of making different things from glass, it was really fascinating. Our guide mr David was also amazing, we listened to him and the stories he told us. An amazing experience.

A day trip island tour of the Venetian Lagoon. - We had a very enjoyable day trip tour of the Venetian Lagoon. Our guide Ilario was excellent. The glass master at Murano was very talented and the demonstration was very good. The artisan pieces produced are worthy of the price tags that are attached. Torchello island was lovely, calm and peaceful. It provided a great stroll amongst the history. Burano Island was our favorite stop. Beautifully picturesque, colorful and artisanal; the lace ladies are so talented. We also had a lovely fresh seafood lunch. All around a great day with perfect weather.
