Full description Enjoy a tour of the islands of Venice! A day trip to the northern lagoon to see Murano, Burano and Torcello, 6 hours to see the islands in all their beauty.

Departing from St. Mark's Square, you will cross the lagoon comfortably seated in a panoramic boat with a specialized tour guide who will explain the history and culture of the islands.

The first stop is Murano, known worldwide for its glass industry. Stop to visit a glass factory where you will see a glassblowing demonstration by a local artist who will create a unique glass object in front of you; you will also have time to enjoy the island on your own.

The second stop is the picturesque island of Burano, famous not only for its lace-making but also for its brightly painted fishermen's houses. Get lost in the colorful streets and taste the delicious local cookies called "Bussolai."

The last but certainly not the least important stop is the quiet and sparsely populated island of Torcello, the first center of civilization in the lagoon. On this island you can admire the oldest churches in the lagoon and discover how Venice was born!

On the way back from the islands you will cross the lagoon and admire the fascinating St. Mark's Basin from the panoramic position of the boat!
