    Having traveled to Murano for a tour in the past, I felt it was not necessary to make that trip again on this trip, even though I wanted my family to experience the glass blowing process. Going to the local showroom in Venice, we were able to skip the lines, experience the glass blowing, and have the opportunity to see all of the designs. Well worth the time and investment.

    Vorführung 2 Minuten danach eine Verkaufsveranstaltung! Abzocke! Besser die Vorführung auf Murano besuchen von Get your Guide, dort wird man nicht 20 Minuten lang zum Kauf eines Produkts genötigt!

    Demonstration was very short. The shop is good sowing off the many different items and colours and techniques if you are intending to buy authentic Murano Glass.

    Perfect tour If you want some info on glassblowing with a demonstration without a trip to Murano. Information and interesting.

    Horrible. Ripoff. The mtg place is 15 min to the left in an alley- we found that then found our other tour mtg place- walked around went to mtg place and a girl walked up 15-20 min to the rt between alleys and shops- ww got there and had to wait for a lg group to go- waited at least 15-20 min . Finally went upstairs and one guy blew a vase w a horse on top maybe 5 min while someone explained-. Then he walked us thru entire gift shop following us saying everything is for sale. Gave us a small piece of glass candy. Just a waste of time. My daughter watched glass blowing at a different place and said it was great. I don't know what we pd for. To watch 5 min? I have seen more at shops around the USA. Don't waste ur money

    在威尼斯玻璃島觀看了玻璃吹製示範,師傅從 小就學習吹製玻璃,手藝純屬,令人目不暇給 !在玻璃島看到一隻玻璃手錶,當時沒有買, 現在後悔了!

    There was a ten minute demonstration, while they tried to sell us stuff the rest of time. The glass was pricy there, so you are better of buying glass at one of the smaller shops in Venice. Although, I did learn a little bit about making glass during the demonstration, so that was cool.

    The experience was interesting, but its really just a short demonstration of glass blowing, then a brief talk on the Venetian history of glass, and then just a hard sell in the shop. No actual opportunity to do glass blowing.
