My Europe Trip 2019 Part XIII+ – Islands Murano, Burano and Torcello Plus Gondola Ride

Venice Day 3

Today we woke up at about 7am as we booked a tour of Murano, Burano and Torcello which are islands nearby.

Two days ago I did report that my hotel does provide a free tour to a Murano Glass Factory. My youngest daughter on the other hand only planned for us to go to Burano. Since we have come so far, I thought we should visit the 3 islands of Murano, Burano and Trocello; and it will be more convenient that we just go on a tour. The tour is about 4 hours plus and we booked the tour to start at 9am so that we will be back in San Marco for lunch.

Below are some photos taken from the boat I was in:

Murano

The first stop was to a Glass Making Factory in Murano where we were shown how a vase and horse was made. I kind of enjoyed the glass making demonstration.

We only had a few minutes to check out the island of Murano and I only managed to take a few photos.
