We travelled with a six-year-old child and the tour guide was able to span(持续）both adult and kiddo attention spans. He was super patient with us, telling us a small history lesson of the masks.

The tour guide Giorgio was amazing with our two girls. They had a great time selecting the style of mask, designing and painting the masks. Giorgio was very patient and did a beautiful job of decorating the masks. There was air conditioning in the tiny workshop too. I sat at the restaurant outside the door and read and had a glass of wine while waiting.
