Boat to Murano

by rstary

Send Photo to a Friend

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.

Great intro. with a fabulous photograph that is vivid and quite clear. We, too, did the secret Itinerary Tour! You have some helpful tips and they are written quite well.
