Isola Torcello

TORCELLO – The Ancient Heart of the Lagoon After leaving Murano, our boat will take you to the oldest and most mysterious heart of the lagoon: Torcello, a silent island wrapped in the charm of the past. Here, among ancient ruins and wild nature, you will breathe in the history of Venice’s origins. According to legend, the first inhabitants of the Serenissima found refuge here from barbarian invasions. You will stroll along secluded paths, discover Attila’s Throne—where the legendary Hun leader is said to have sat—and, upon request, visit the extraordinary Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, home to one of Europe’s most fascinating Byzantine mosaics: a Last Judgment that seems to emerge from the walls, telling stories of faith and power. With only 13 inhabitants left, Torcello is a fragment of a forgotten time, a magical place where history comes to life before your eyes.

Isola di Burano - World Heritage Site

BURANO – The Explosion of Colors and Traditions The final stop of the journey takes you to the fairytale-like Burano, an island that looks like it’s come straight out of a painted canvas. Its colorful houses, once painted in bright shades to help fishermen find their way through the fog, now offer a dreamlike scene to every visitor. As you stroll through the narrow cobbled streets, you will discover the ancient art of Burano lace, a tradition passed down through generations and famous worldwide. There will also be a sweet break to taste the Bussolà, the delicious Burano biscuits with traditional shapes. Don’t miss: the picturesque San Martino Bell Tower, Burano’s leaning tower, which adds a touch of charm and mystery to the island.
