Departing from San Marco, the tour with our onboard guide will take you to discover Burano, the enchanting island famous for its colorful houses and unique atmosphere. During the journey, there will be a stop at Murano to watch a glassmaking demonstration (approximately one hour on the island).
 
 After just 30 minutes of navigation, you will reach Burano, where you will have about 3 hours to stroll through the picturesque streets, explore local shops, and have lunch independently at the island’s restaurants and cafés. If you wish, with our ticket you will be able to enter the Lace Museum free of charge (to be requested from the guide).
 
 Return to San Marco, scheduled around 5:30 PM, will conclude an unforgettable day of art, culture, and the colors of the Venetian Lagoon.

What will you do?

During the navigation: admire the typical flora and fauna of the lagoon and watch in the distance the planes taking off from Marco Polo Airport.
