Custom Rome Italy Vatican City Tours

During your Venice family vacation let your children be little artists for a day in Venice!

Children love masks and dressing up and one of the fun things to do on a family vacation in Venice with kids is to visit one of the artisan mask maker shops in the ‘City of Masks’ that produces colorful handmade carnival masks.
The venetian mask is an integral part of the typical costume for the carnival and the history of mask making in Venice is a rich tradition. When in Venice kids and parents alike will enjoy getting off the treadmill that can be Venice tourism by visiting mask making shops where kids enjoy watching artisans at work, buy masks and even try their own hand at decorating Carnival masks to bring home as a souvenir.
With your family friendly tour guide enjoy our kids favorite mask making shops and studios where the children watch masks come to life. Visit the tiny studios filled with authentic masks made in the traditional way, learn about the history of the masks, which reached their golden age in the 18th century when it was not uncommon for people to wear them year round and pick up lots of arcane anecdotes like the fact that during the plague, the beak-shaped nose of one popular mask design was stuffed with medicinal herbs to avoid sickness. Old and new styles and designs hang side by side in the shops where kids will like the abundance of shiny gold used in the decoration.
Please, be informed that due to the crowded shops this tour is more suitable for older children rather than for really young ones.
Tour ends with recommendations on what to do while in Venice by a real local.
