symbols.

Glide across the Venetian Lagoon as the city’s skyline recedes into shimmering light. Out here, Venice feels quieter and more elemental, salt marsh horizons, low islands, and the ever-changing
sky that has inspired painters for generations.
Murano is your first stop, famed for an artistry born of fire. For centuries, glassmakers here were so prized that the Republic protected their secrets, and Murano’s name still carries global
prestige. Watching molten glass transform into luminous forms means witnessing living history.
Then comes Burano, joyful, vivid, and irresistibly photogenic. Its brightly painted houses were once said to guide fishermen home through the lagoon mist, and its lacework tradition is among
Italy’s most delicate crafts, shaped by patience and astonishing precision. Taste the island’s beloved bussolai cookies, wander canal side lanes, and return to Venice with the feeling that
