Background:
My husband, mother-in-law (MIL), two daughters (9, 11), and myself are venturing to Italy for 14 days in June. It's my MIL and our girls first trip to Italy.
I've been to Venice twice in recent years but have never visited the islands. Since we haven't been AND my MIL is an artisan this is a must. Besides, the girls might like a boat ride and a change of scenery too.
From researching, I know some factory tours are better than others. Many tours are free or cost a few euros, but can be strong on the selling. The tour doesn't have to be free either. (I looked into the Seguso experience, but 500+ euros for 1.5-2 hour tour is just too much.) I am just trying to find a place that will give an up close and personal view of this craft. I usually don't like to plan this sort of thing out, but having a plan is the key to success when traveling with my MIL. Any recommendations?
Thanks!
