At first We will visit the world famous Murano, where the last 20 families have been producing our amazing glass masterpieces for 1000 years! Thanks to the friendly collaborations of the Mazzucatto's family we will explore their Glass Factory and Gallery seeing Masters working! On the second island, Burano, you will see a fascinating colorful town and a community of fishermen. You will see one of the last Lace Factories called "Da Martina" where the last old lacers are still doing this very ancient handmade tradition! Finally we'll explore Torcello, the first community of Venice. Today the last 9 locals are still living inside a "dark ages city" where everything is like a lot of centuries ago. Inside their Romantic Basilica you will enjoy a stunning view of the same Universal Judgment mosaic seen by Dante before his "Comedy"! P.S. The guide really suggests that you take your lunch time in Burano, which is one of the best seafood cuisine locations in Europe.
