Workshop Murano Glass Experience
The workshops consist of an hour and a half of work and fun divided into two parts. The first involves the use of a transparent glass plate where guests will create a figure with pieces of Murano glass, called graniglia, which will then be cooked in the oven. The glass will melt and the created figure will remain with the guest. The second part consists of a demonstration phase by the Maestro and subsequently a practical test of Murano glass processing by the guests. Guests will work the glass with the flame and experience the pleasant sensation of ancient lampwork. The workshops are also ideal for families with children over 12, who will love the magic of glass. Other things to keep in mind The works completed in the first part of the workshop will be cooked in the oven for approximately 3 hours, while the objects made with the flame will be ready after 2 hours of cooling. Everything will be delivered the same day after 2/3 hours or the following day in agreement with the customers. Workshop duration: 1.5 hours.
Venetian Stories on the Boat
On board of my "sanpierotta"( tipically wooden boat of lagoon fishermen) we'll make a trip that, throught the places of the present city, exploring the stories from the past. We'll wander about the lagoon and the city, conversing ( if you want..) for about 1,5 hours. To see Venice from the water perspective it's essential to understand Venice. Other things to note By Agreement, it's possible to be picked up in Venice. On request, private non-scheduled experiences can be planned. Special prices for families.
Legends, Ghosts and Ghouls of Venice
The now tranquil streets of Venice where not always so. Have you ever walked down a street alone and felt eyes watching you? Maybe a shadowy figure moving in the distance? Join me as we visit the locations of those local spirits that you've felt and seen in the dark foggy nights. Learn the story behind each one and if they are friend or foe! Shatter your illusions of knights in shining armor that save the day, learn how enemies of the state were dealt with and how desire for power leads even the most noble down dark and twisted paths. Other things to note Please note that Venetian folk lore like many is from a time far before ours. To tell the stories at full effect how they are told among locals, details are very graphic. This tour includes “curse words” and I do not sugar coat the realities of our past world. Please bare this in mind when booking if you are accompanied by children. Please also understand this tour cannot be PG rated if accompanied by children in a public group I heavily advise that you book privately when bringing anyone who might need the graphic details to be removed. This experience is designed to stir your curiosity for the dark side of our collective story.
Hidden canals and lagoon of Venice
We will start from the Church of San Lazzaro dei Mendicanti on the north side of the city and along the Venice Arsenal we will visit the Castello district, one of the oldest parts of the city. We will make a small stop in front of the church of San Pietro di Castello for an aperitif and then continue to the southern part of the city where we will have a panoramic view of the Lido of Venice, the small islands of the southern lagoon and of San Giorgio. We will then return to the canals of Castello until we return to the meeting point. IMPORTANT: The experience works through a sport association, so, legally, I need to release you the sport association member card and the addictional insurance. In order to do that I need your documents at least one day before the experience date.
A sparkling day in the Prosecco Hills
Together we will discover the Prosecco Hills... beautiful places of my childhood, where I used to run freely around the vineyards! In the morning, with me and my husband, we will visit a winery located in an area with a beautiful scenery, where we will learn all the secrets of Prosecco wine making and taste some glasses of this famous sparkling wine! We will then visit a local Osteria lost in the middle of the hills, and will have an aperitivo in front of the vineyards, while listening to the delightful singing of the birds! We will meet my family, while enjoying a typical lunch in our family owned osteria, where traditional dishes are prepared using our grandma's recipes, and where the typical "spiedo" meat cooks slowly near the fire! All desserts are home made by my brother and are really a sweet end of a delicious 4 courses meal! We will visit a second winery, where we will meet friends that run a very high quality DOCG Prosecco winery and produce wines using ancient types of vines and lots of passion! Finally, in summer time only (Apr to Oct), there could be the possibility of enjoying a unique picnic experience in a stunning area in the middle of the vineyards.
