Murano and Burano by Luxury Water Taxi

Escape the hustle and bustle of St Mark's Square as you head to the pearl of the Venetian Lagoon and enjoy a picturesque boat ride to the islands of Murano and Burano.
Celebrated as the center of production of the world-famous Murano Glass and often described as the "small Venice", Murano is the most well-known of the islands surrounding beautiful Venice. Your first stop will be a traditional glassmaking factory, where you will watch a master glassblower and other artisans make chandeliers, vases, statues and other beautiful objects. You will also have an exclusive invitation to private viewing of an exhibition by Maestro Fabio Fornasier – not usually open to the public.
Burano, famous for its colourfully painted houses and its picturesque canals, is a real pearl of the Venetian Lagoon and will leave you spellbound by its beauty. Walk along scenic canals and take wonderful photographs of the vibrant local architecture. Visit to a local workshop where you'll see the intricacy involved in the delicate lace-making - which continues to be made by hand today. You'll also be invited to taste the delicious local cookies called 'Bussolai' before travelling back to central Venice across the Lagoon.
