Initially, we booked a tour to go through the glass factory. The price for the tour was more than other places around the island. However, after reading several reviews for Wave Murano Glass Factory and other places, I was convinced that this was where we wanted to go. I had been to Murano many years ago as a child, and my husband had never been, so we wanted to book somewhere where we could actually learn a bit more than what other factories were offering in their "5-minute demonstrations". And we surely did learn a lot! The tour was led by one of the artists, (unfortunately, I do not recall her name) she was very knowledgeable and we saw many places within the factory. When we were there most of the team was working on a bigger project, and it was very interesting to see them all work in tandem. After the tour, we enquired about the quick course to blow our small vase. Luckily it was possible to do, and we enjoyed this even more than the tour! It was a very hands-on experience and truly made us appreciate the artists' skills even more! They make it look so easy, but it is not!!! Another artist was our "teacher" and she too was very knowledgeable! If you're considering booking the course, or just the tour, do not hesitate to. You will learn a lot at this relatively new, but very modern glass factory!
Fabulous! The best! Great instructor! Lots of actual hands-on practice. And we each got a piece that we made to go home with us! Again - our instructor was wonderful!
We loved this tour! My daughter and I feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to blow glass! The staff are amazing - Stephanie and crew made it a wonderful experience!! Thank you so much!!!
Amazing experience, highly recommend! Ana was fantastic, she gave a very informative tour to start the experience then did a wonderful job helping us make glass items of our own. It was a very hands on process, allowing us to make glass from beginning to end. Then you can either pick up your item the next day or ship it home. This was one of our favorite experiences so far in Italy.
AMAZING EXPERIENCE. YOU CAN FEEL IN YOUR BONES THIS AMAZING WORLD. YOU CAN TAKE TO YOUR HOME PIECE THAT YOU BLOW BY YOUR SELF
