About This Tour

Depart from St. Mark’s Square aboard a semi-private water taxi and glide across the lagoon toward Murano, the island where Venice’s most treasured tradition still burns bright. The craft of the master glassmakers was so precious that they were forbidden from leaving the Republic, ensuring that the secrets of this extraordinary art remained uniquely Venetian. Today, you’ll step inside an authentic furnace and stand just a few feet away as molten glass becomes shape, color, and life in the hands of a Murano maestro. It’s a rare chance to witness a Made-in-Italy masterpiece take form right before your eyes. After the demonstration, enjoy a guided stroll through Murano’s charming canals, artisan studios, and island atmosphere. With its blend of history, artistry, and intimate experience, this tour offers not just a visit, but an unforgettable encounter with Venice’s most iconic craft before returning comfortably to St. Mark’s by water taxi.
