Get your discount tickets for the Murano & Burano: Venice Lagoon Cruise on a Traditional Boat, save up to 18% !
Overview
The Venetian lagoon's most colorful islands await, but the journey matters as much as the destination. While most visitors rush between Murano and Burano on crowded ferries, you'll experience them aboard a beautifully restored traditional wooden bragozzo, traveling at a pace that honors the lagoon's rhythm and reveals its beauty. This slower, more sustainable approach lets you truly see the play of light on water, distant bell towers, and the lagoon's subtle beauty that most visitors miss from crowded ferries. Departing from Venice, your first stop is Murano, where you'll watch master glassblowers at work in a historic furnace. See skilled artisans transform molten glass into art using seven centuries of technique. Then you'll sail to Burano for free time to explore at your own pace. Wander the famous rainbow-colored streets, discover the legendary lace-making tradition, browse artisan shops, and soak in the island's vibrant atmosphere.
