What to expect

Your first stop on this full-day excursion is Murano, where you will visit a local glass factory to discover why the island is renowned for its glassworks. Watch a skilled craftsman demonstrate glass making and enjoy an hour on the island to shop at one of the many glass shops.

Finally, venture from Burano to Torcello, the first center of civilization in the estuary. Spend an hour of free time when you can go and see the Venetian-Byzantine mosaics at the Basilica of Santa Maria Assunta. You will return to San Marco in the early evening.
