The Hightlights of Venice and Murano Private Tour W/Private SpeedBoat

We’ll begin our journey at St. Mark’s Square, the political heart of the ancient Most Serene Republic of Venice. Surrounded by impressive buildings, including the Doge’s Palace with the iconic Bridge of Sighs, the Clock Tower, and the Bell Tower, this area stands as a testament to the city’s former power and grandeur, offering a perfect introduction to Venice’s rich history.

But no visit to Venice would be complete without exploring the residential neighborhoods where locals live. We’ll stroll through areas like Castello, Campo Santi Giovanni, and the Scuola di San Marco, where you can get a real feel for the authentic Venetian lifestyle.

Afterward, a short walk will take us to the northern edge of the city, where a boat awaits to ferry us to Murano Island, just a mile north of Venice. By the late 13th century, Murano became the hub of glassmaking after the Venetian government relocated all glass factories there for safety reasons. On the island, we’ll visit one of the most renowned glass studios, where you can admire the exquisite craftsmanship that has made Murano glass famous worldwide.
