Venetian Islands Tour: Murano, Burano and Torcello

price £18.17 (per person)
 
Why book this experience

  • Travel on a luxurious motor launch
  • Visit three of the Islands in the Venetian Lagoon, all of which have their own charm

Take a trip to Murano for the exquisite glasswork, Burano for lace and Torcello for Venice’s first cathedral – the islands in the lagoon in Venice make for some very engaging sightseeing.

Murano has been producing beautiful crystal since the 10th century when Venetian traders brought back the secrets of production from the East. Burano with its pastel-coloured fishermen’s cottages is as pretty as the lace it is famous for. Beautiful mosaics at Torcello’s cathedral, Santa Maria Assunta, add to the beauty of this Byzantine structure.

This tour gives you the chance to explore the beauty and heritage of Murano, Burano and Torcello first hand.

Itinerary

The tour starts from Ponte de Paglia (in front of Hotel Danieli), from where you will be taken to board your private motor launch for a tour of the Islands in the Venetian Lagoon. You will be accompanied by a guide

Visit Murano, the most famous and most visited Venetian island for the exquisite glasswork produced here.

Proceed to the island of Burano, which is famous for its lace industry. This pretty fishing village has many streets and canals lined with bright, pastel-coloured houses.

Visit the delightful island of Torcello, home to Venice’s first cathedral. The cathedral, Santa Maria Assunta, is a masterpiece with its mosaics and Byzantine structure.

After your tour, re-board the motor launch to cross the lagoon back to Venice. The tour ends at the Ponte de Paglia.
