Wonderful experience. Dario was a great teacher. Perfect balance of learning and hands on practicing. Completely exceeded our expectations.
Great experience. For over 18 years old. The instructor was very patient. He actually spent extra time with them.
This was such a unique and beautiful experience and I am super happy my partner and I got to participate in it. We had one-on-one instruction from Alessandro, a true artisan from a many generation family of glass artists, and his protege, Dario. Both gentlemen were great teachers: extremely knowledgeable, skillful, pleasant and fun to work with. This was a highlight of our trip to Venice and Murano. It gave us a new appreciation of complexity and beauty of glass as an art form, and the skill and knowledge this work requires. Alessandro had some mind-blowingly beautiful pieces available for purchase in his workshop that were a standout from the rest of the glass in and around Venice. It was clear that both instructors not only loved what they do, but were excited about sharing their passion with others.
We really enjoed trying glass work for the first time. I was a bit nervous about trying it, but Dario made us both feel really comfortable and gave us the perfect amount of help and encouragement. It was my partner's birthday so Dario made it an extra bit special

Wonderful experience.best of my whole holiday .Agreat teacher and explained every step with detail .we knew it would be hard but he made it a wonderful class and we left with a great understanding of gravity and glass .my highlight highly recommended
Really informative, fun and safe! Clear instructions given and help the whole way through. Our instructor went to lots of extra effort to make sure we had everything we needed.
I gave the experience of glass processing to my husband and he was not very happy. Dario was a very good teacher, he explained each step precisely and without ever putting in trouble helped in the realization of a small object. Seeing how much work is behind it, how much preparation and precision in movements makes it clearer how valuable each individual creation is. I stayed there to watch and just for this it was worth it, I think that trying with your own hands is a unique experience!
Interesting and pleasant experience, friendly operator and very knowledgeable.
Our instructor carefully instructed us on each safety rule when creating a glass object. He was by our side constantly and by the end of our appointment, we had created several colorful beads and objects. It was exhausting because of the concentration but magical that we created a piece of art.
