Marvelous Marta on the boat in Venice

Kim_W, Jul 2025

Marta was an amazing guide. She is from Venice and knows her town, history and she was so fun! The glass factory has so much history, we watched a master glass blower create a glass and a horse right before our eyes. Seeing Venice via the canals was incredible and while we were listening to Marta tell stories of the past!
