The actual experience was nice and a good value for money for visiting both islands and the museums with the 24 hour vaporetto pass. However, the employees at the public transport service were not informed about this ticket and the discount. At the boat station they didn't let us in claiming that this ticket is only the museum pass and that we have to pay extra 25 euro for the transfer service.

your experience

Island of Murano

Hop on to an ACTV from Venice and traverse to the land of Venetian Craftsmanship with your Museum of the Island ticket. Disembark on the quaint and rather fragile island of Murano to witness the Roman Glass artworks from 1st century AD, modern contemporary works and everything crystal in between. Don't forget to enjoy the works of Angelo Barovier, the inventor of clear glass and the diamond-point engravings by Vincenzo D'Angelo dal Gallo while you're here.

Burano's Lace Legacy

After exploring the glassblowing tradition of Venice, use your ACTV pass to reach the Islands of Burano cloaked in colour and lace. It is said that Leonardo Da Vinci travelled all the way to Burano in1481 in order to buy lace for the main altar of Duomo di Milano. At the Burano Lace Museum, you will understand why he made the travel and what the rage about Venetian Lace is all about. Lay your eyes on exemplary intricate pieces of fine lace and learn about the Burano Lace Point, illustrations showing the way they weave this intricate fabric and so on. A truly refreshing delight!
