About this activity

The Venetian lagoon tells a story that goes far beyond Venice itself. While most visitors rush through the islands on crowded ferries, you'll experience them the authentic way: aboard a beautifully restored traditional wooden bragozzo, at a pace that honors the rhythm of lagoon life. This isn't about ticking off destinations. It's about understanding how these islands shaped Venetian culture, craftsmanship, and identity, while traveling in harmony with the lagoon's delicate ecosystem. At Torcello, your guide walks you through this peaceful, timeless island where nature and history intertwine. In Burano, you'll have free time to explore at your own pace. Wander the famous rainbow-colored streets, discover the island's legendary lace-making tradition and savor a lunch at a local trattoria. At Murano, witness the mesmerizing craft of glassblowing in a historic furnace. Watch skilled artisans transform molten glass into art using techniques perfected over seven centuries.
