Glass Blowing, Island of MuranoAnother all-day outing by boat is to take the Il Burchiello, named for a famous 17th-century Venetian boat. From March to November, this boat departs Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays at 8:45 am from the Pontile Giardinetti pier near St. Mark’s Square and travels the network of rivers and canals linking Venice and Padova. (The schedule might change, so verify dates and times.) This little boat, with an English-speaking guide on board, stops at several of the exquisite palaces en route. Lunch is served and there is time for sightseeing in Padova before returning to Venice by bus.
