The island of Murano looks similar to Venice but it is much quieter. Charming architecture, canals, and bridges make it a relaxing place to stroll and learn. This Island offers a great living example of the central role that family and traditions play in a community and history. Murano internationally renowned for a glassmaking industry that dates back to the 13th century continues to produce ornate glass objects thanks to generations of glassmakers who apprenticed their sons and daughters to make sure this precious art craft survived. Your children imagination will run wild as they see artisans creating intricate handcrafted pieces.

Further north in the lagoon lies Burano, one of the most colorful towns in the world. This tiny island resembles a Venice in miniature. Stroll along Burano’s vibrant waterways and hidden courtyards. Burano is a picturesque fishing village made up of hundreds of candy colored small houses. Each house has different colors. Legend has it that the fishermen used this to their advantage as the colors helped them navigate their way home through the fog. Burano is also well-known for its lacemaking traditions, which dates back to 1500. However, today you can still see old ladies that hand-made lace. Burano is also home to a bell tower that over the years has started to lean. It may not be the Leaning Tower of Pisa but children will enjoy catching a glimpse of this unique bell tower.

TESTIMONIALS

Hello! Specifically also to Ann who assisted in coordinating our tour: Thank you so much for this email, I am including my responses and was planning to email you today and let you know that I will be submitting my post to Travel Mamas today. I will be in touch with the link as soon as the post is live. My responses as well to your questions:
Our overall experience with Nancy Aiello Tours was wonderful! Vincenzo was a hit with my children who wanted him to stay with us for our remaining days in Rome. From start to finish my emails prior to our visit were response to quickly and professionally. It can be very stressful to try and accomplish such a tour with 3 very young children- however Vincenzo read us perfectly and gave us exactly the kind of tour to keep us interested and entertained.
In a word or a sentence, how would you describe your experience with Nancy Aiello Tours? Tailor made for what our family was hoping to see and experience on a guided tour.
I would absolutely recommend Nancy Aiello Tours to my family and friends! I plan to include our very positive experience in an upcoming Travel Mamas post- and have already completed a TripAdvisor review. I would tell anyone going to Rome that this is the tour company to check out. My trip advisor link: http://goo.gl/B6oyVO
If you do not mind me asking how did you come across Nancy Aiello Tours? I googled family tours in Rome.
Thank you again so much for this experience and I will be in touch soon.

My overall experience was very good. I have to say that the BEST was the person I never met that was Ann, who coordinated everything via email. She responded immediately, even on Sundays, resolved all our issues and helped in every possible way.
The tour guides where nice and courteous, but with everything involving humans some where better than others. Our tour guide in Florence was very knowledgeable!
I would definitely recommend it to my friends!
Thank you

Dear Rachel,
My family thoroughly enjoyed our time spent on the tours of Rome with Nancy Aiello Tours three weeks ago. Our tour guide Mariella was absolutely WONDERFUL (and so was our driver on the first evening tour). We never felt rushed and both were so accommodating to the various needs of my family including bathroom breaks as well as pizza & gelato stops. I was thrilled when we had the same tour guide for all of our tours in Rome. She really got to know us – which was no easy feat considering we had 4 generations present on this trip. I wished that there was Nancy Aiello tours in the other countries we visited on this trip! I will absolutely use NA when visiting Rome again and will recommend using your company to all my friends. Thank you so very much for being so patient with me as I decided which tours I wanted to take.
