A great value for money for this hands-on experience! Board a private water taxi and head to the island of Murano. Meet a member of the team who will explain all the different steps of the production, including the materials and the different techniques. During this explanation, a Murano Glass Master will show you how to work the glass. Then, blow the Murano Glass yourself. Safety is a priority, so the Glass Master will help you during this experience. Try your hand at blowing the famous Murano Glass (you are not making any item that you can take home). At the end of the blowing experience, visit the showroom that houses pieces made by the greatest Murano Glass Masters. Purchase the best quality Murano Glass pieces and have them shipped to your home.

This tour was great. Someone met us at our tour and brought us to our water taxi. The taxi dropped us off and our guide introduced us to the glass master. The glass master showed us how he makes his beautiful masterpieces! He even allowed us to try “glass blowing”. It looks simple but it is NOT. After our experience we were able to visit the showroom filled with delicate glass pieces. It’s amazing what they can do!
We learned a lot about glass. We also had fun being able to blow glass ourselves. Giovanni explained each step to make the experience better.
Wonderful tour, great team. It was really fun 🤩
It is a fun experience. We learned a lot about glass. The products were nice. The kids enjoyed the experience. The shop was expensive, but the quality was very good.
I went to Venice with my girlfriend for the first time; it is a beautiful city, and the activity in Murano was the added value. Lots of history, art, and craftsmanship in a fun, lighthearted, and unforgettable excursion. I highly recommend everyone try it!!!
Great tour, amazing organization and sweet guides. A different tour from others, as they let you try blowing the glass. 10/10
Wonderful experience! Definitely to be repeated! The experience was exactly as described!
We paid a lot of money for the activity, a 15-minute activity. As they clearly knew that they had scammed us, they offered to blow glass, make a glass, and send it by mail (all to save face). Three months later, we are still without receiving the glasses, nor a message, nor a refund. We truly believed that they wanted to solve the problem they caused, but they only covered it up.
What a fantastic experience. We laughed we learned and we had a fantastic time. Giovanni was terrific. He even gave us glasses of Prosecco and treated our kids wonderful
Amazing experience! My adult children were thrilled. Master artist made two pieces while another employee explained what he was doing. We then each had the opportunity to blow molten glass. Very entertaining and educational. Loved it!!!
