Description
🌊✨ Sail into the Soul of the Venetian Lagoon — Murano, Burano & Torcello by Traditional Bragozzo ✨🌊
Set off on a one-of-a-kind voyage aboard a traditional bragozzo, the elegant wooden boat once used by Venetian sailors. Cruise through the shimmering waters of the lagoon and discover three of Venice’s most treasured islands — Murano, Burano, and Torcello — guided by a local skipper who brings centuries of history and tradition to life.
🟢 Murano – The Fire of Craftsmanship
Step ashore on Murano, world-renowned for its master glassblowers. Visit a real furnace and witness molten glass transformed into art before your eyes. After the demonstration, enjoy free time to explore artisan boutiques and wander Murano’s peaceful canals.
🟠 Burano – The Island of Color and Lace
Next, glide into the storybook charm of Burano. Its rainbow-colored houses reflect perfectly in the still waters, a dream for photographers and romantics alike. Stroll the lively streets, visit lace-making workshops, and perhaps savor local sweets like bussolà biscuits.
🔵 Torcello – The Birthplace of Venice
End your journey on Torcello, the lagoon’s most ancient island. Discover the majestic Byzantine mosaics inside the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, climb the bell tower for sweeping views, and feel the timeless peace of this sacred place.
