About the experience

Set off on a captivating journey across the Venetian Lagoon, where centuries of history meet vibrant island life. This full-day adventure reveals the northern treasures of Venice, each offering a unique glimpse into the culture, craftsmanship, and serenity of this iconic region. From ancient monasteries to rainbow-colored houses, this cruise is the perfect blend of discovery, relaxation, and breathtaking scenery.

Departing from Zattere in Dorsoduro, we sail past the tranquil shores of Giudecca Island and the cemetery island of San Michele, soaking in a quiet and reflective side of Venice. Our first major stop is Murano, world-famous for its glassmaking tradition. Here, you'll witness skilled artisans working in a historic glass furnace, continuing a craft passed down for generations.

We continue to Burano, where every house bursts with color and every corner feels like a postcard. You’ll have time to explore this charming fishing village, renowned for its handmade lace and lively streets. Next, we stop at peaceful Mazzorbo and then Torcello, one of the oldest human settlements in the lagoon. This is where we enjoy lunch, surrounded by nature and ancient ruins that whisper stories of Venice’s origins.

The cruise then takes you to San Francesco del Deserto, a secluded island monastery offering serenity and spiritual charm, still inhabited by Franciscan monks. On our return, we sail by the Arsenale, once the beating heart of Venetian naval power, and end with a stunning panoramic view of St. Mark’s Square from the water.

This cruise is not just a sightseeing trip—it’s a journey through time, color, and tradition, revealing a side of Venice that few travelers get to experience in one unforgettable day

    Our experience with Francesco was truly exceptional. Communication was prompt and clear, and the process was simple. We asked Francesco for a unique tour, a day focused on local food and wine, and he delivered. In fact, our time with Francesco far exceeded expectations, and we are looking forward to booking again. In short, Francesco is a great skipper, but his intimate knowledge of Venice extends far beyond its waterways. Food, wine, culture...Francesco is truly passionate about his city and his enthusiasm elevates an already incredible experience. Grazie mille Francesco!

    WE had an extraordinary trip in the Laguna islands. Francesco a real young and energetic Venetian explained the history and daily life in the islands. He speaks fluently English and French. He took us to a very good and local restaurant for lunch at Torcello. An Excellent trip we never will forget. Unni and Alain
