Default Murano Trip

Hello Beth, some years back I would put together groups who would meet up in Venice. We would go to Effetre, we would visit some of the greatest glass artists on Murano and Venice, and eat lots of Italian Food and walk all around Venice.

But that was 10 years ago, and I probably do not have the strength to go on any more of my Venice Marches without stopping and resting.

Effetre is an amazing glass factory, and it would blow your mind. I hope to take some new pictures inside the factory and post them in our newsletter.

While I have no plans for any more tours, I still can provide you with a vast amount of information of where to stay and what to see.

My best travel tip for Venice is to bring half as much clothes and twice as much money.

Hey Mike,
Several years back I remember reading a thread you started where people could accompany you in Italy during one of your trips but it was around Bead and Button time and I had to count myself out. Do you still offer this possibility? My memory is rusty but I seem to recall basically that we would provide our own transportation but that you might have had places in mind that we could stay (were they apartments?) that we're fairly reasonable. I'd love to know if you're still doing this or if you think you might ever consider doing it again.
Best,
Beth
