Meet your local guide and group of just 20 guests maximum in central Venice and walk together to your private boat for a scenic 30-minute boat ride to Murano Island. As you’re motoring out through the lagoon, your guide will point out places of interest and give you a brief introduction to the history of island settlement in Venice.
