After that we will leave for the first three important islands of the Lagoon (Murano, Burano and Torcello). We will stop in all of them and visit the tiny Murano glass blowing craftshops, the lace production laboratories in Burano Village and historical places where the Venetian history started such as Torcello with its old Bizantine cathedral. After a self organized lunch on the grass we will continue discovering some hidden corners of the Lagoon such as San Francesco del Deserto where a Franciscan monks monastery still survives.
