- Isola di Burano - World Heritage Site - We will arrive in Burano, in the main canal, where on your right, you will admire the crooked bell tower, all the colorful fishermen’s houses, while the banks will be full of people, we will pass by with the boat, where we will moor!
The shops are PRE-SELECTED because in each of them, the history of the island and its traditions will be told.
I’ll show you:
the local laces, where a local guide will explain the centuries-old art and the tradition that we are slowly losing
The true story of Venetian masks, from the initial creation with paper to the finished product, a wonder of our Venetian history
Fishermen’s clothes, linen, fresh and ductile woven in the latest yarn made in Venice.
There are unique places where you can take photographs and taste the typical dessert of the island of Burano, and we will enter, for free, to taste it!
Even the tavern has its history, with its wine and its cicheti!!!
- Murano - We will arrive in Murano, in front of a furnace, where a guide will be waiting for us to see how glass is made! You will be involved in the millenary technique and you will be able to ask the questions that most arouse your curiosity! We will see unique pieces displayed in the shop, from the most prestigious ones to everyday souvenirs! MADE IN MURANO, Italy
- San Francesco del Deserto - the island of San Francesco del Deserto where 7 monks still live inside the monastery! I will tell you the history of this island
- Venissa - We will only pass next to Mazzorbo, depending on the tour we take, towards Torcello. It is famous for its native vines, and if we have time we stop for a glass of wine…the salt marshes and numerous birds, including pink flamingos
- Isola di Sant’Erasmo - Transiting through the islands, going or returning, we will pass through the island of Sant Erasmo, where there are the typical products of the land, the vegetables of the Venice lagoon
- Torcello - hence the usual photos of the devil’s bridge, the famous hidden canal, the basilica and the bell tower reflecting on the water! the passage between swans and vegetation. One of my favorite places
- Venice - We will spend the remaining part of the time sailing between one island and another, admiring the typical places, where I will provide you with a beautiful explanation on board!!
It depends very much on the time you spend in the previous islands and I, during the time of your tour, will always be at your disposal to best create your tour options. Remember, however, that you may be on a boat with other people (shared tour) everyone must agree!! But how can you not see part of the beautiful lagoon? IMPOSSIBLE.
