Orsola was kind and friendly. I had a great time exploring Murano, Burano and Sant’Erasmo. The glass demonstration was truly impressive, Burano’s colorful houses were beautiful and Sant’Erasmo was peaceful. The perfect day to relax.

What an unforgettable afternoon under the sun, exploring Venice’s beautiful islands! We began with a private glassmaking demonstration in a charming, historic Murano factory, then wandered through the colorful streets of Burano, full of vibrant houses and local charm. To top it all off, we enjoyed a glass of wine while taking in breathtaking views of the lagoon and meeting a famous winemaker — a perfect ending to a magical day!
Loved seeing Murano, Burano and St. Erasmo all on one tour! A lovely change of pace from Venice proper. Francesca J was a very friendly, knowledgeable local guide.
