Tur til Murano- og Burano-øyene

Det var i bunn og grunn en selvguidet tur etter demonstrasjonen av glassblåsing. Det var ikke så livlig som jeg hadde forventet, og man kan se at begge byene sakte forfaller ettersom disse tradisjonelle håndverksindustriene sliter med å overleve. Faktisk er det svært få unge mennesker som ønsker å lære disse håndverkene lenger, fordi arbeidet krever mange års dedikasjon. I Burano sies det at bare rundt 20 kvinner fortsatt besitter de tradisjonelle knipleferdighetene. Til tross for dette er museet vel verdt et besøk, da det gir verdifull innsikt i historien til venetiansk håndverk og hjelper deg å sette pris på disse bemerkelsesverdige kunstneriske tradisjonene.

Det er veldig enkelt, du går til båthavnene og snakker bare med mennene som har ansvaret for å sette deg på båten. Det er en person som vil fortelle deg fakta fra båten, men alt annet gjør du selv, så du har friheten til å utforske. Du må bare følge båtens tidsplaner. Veldig fin opplevelse.

En veldig god opplevelse. Guiden var svært kunnskapsrik, hun snakket 5 forskjellige språk. Båten var alltid i rute, og vi hadde nok tid til å utforske øyene.

meet up is easy . the trip to the islands are smooth and time allocated is sufficient for us to enjoy the islands. good day trip when you are in Venice

Overall this was a great tour. Good value for money and a nice break from the madness of St Mark's square. The only thing is we'd have liked around 30-60 mins more on Murano as it is a bit of a whistle stop stay - espiecally if you get caught in the glass showroom. Unless you REALLY like glass our tip would be to escape out of the rear doors and see the island. Our guide Isabel was excellent and provided all the important info. Tour ran to exact time and a small tip if you arrive at the meeting point and are unsure which tour to join there will be a guide wearing white polo shirt with a red lion on it. Overall this was great. Would definitely recommend!

My family enjoyed the trip to Murano and Burano. My kids were in awe of the glass-blowing master artist who was so creative in his craft. It was also enjoyable exploring the island itself. We just had difficulty looking for which tour group we belonged to at first since it wasn’t indicated in the booking confirmation. Good thing we were able to find it in time.

The boat journey to the island is very far and it take about 35 mins to get there. The shop at the island are very expensive.

天氣很好，去哂兩個想去嘅島，好靚，第一個地方先去Murano, 好多玻璃工藝品，集合時間係12:25，見到真係有團友趕唔切船，大家記住上船地點，有可能會迷路。之後再去彩色島，更多手信買，逗留時間為1小時30分，時間有啲趕但都值得

very enjoyable but did not get to spend as much time exploring the islands as we’d hoped. the glass blowing demonstration was amazing.

Head to the docks and find the company as stated from the voucher ( you can see the company email address) you need to approach the operators to secure your seats on the ferry. You’re not meeting up with a tour guide who has a name list, just feeey managers. The tour explanation is onboard through the PA system and the glass making demonstration will be given once you’re on Murano.
