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 glass blowing demonstration was only about 5-10 mins long at the most. The translator was very good at explaining how they make the glass and the history of murano. if i were to do it again i would book the travel to the different islands and see the glass being made on murano island it self

don't waste your time or money. It was 5 minutes of glassblowing and then a hard sell of glass products.

Really enjoyable insight into glass blowing although would have been better if we had more time actually watching the glass blowing and not as much time trying to get us to buy from the shop. Our guide was very informative and did make it interesting so I would recommend it

Unfortunately we got lost and never made it to this event.
When we did get our bearings, we still didn't find it.
No one other than out poor sense of direction was at fault.I'm sure it would have been wonderful!
