  • Go to St Mark's Square and take a right towards the water. Someone will approach you regarding a trip on a boat to Murano. Take the free boat ride that is sponsored by a glass blowing company.

    The boat ride is a nice experience and it's free. That's $100 cheaper than the gondola ride!

    The glass company representatives are not high pressure.

    Have lunch and then hop on the vaporetto to get back to Venice.
