Explore two of Venice's most famous monuments with this St. Mark's Basilica + Doge's Palace Tour. Numerous works of art, hidden galleries, and majestic halls await you!

Tour Details

At the scheduled time, we'll meet at the meeting point to enter two of Venice's most emblematic buildings.

First, we'll visit the Doge's Palace, which represented the political power of Venice and served as the official residence of the Doges. An explanation of the power held by these leaders will be provided as we enter the palace.

We'll walk through the different rooms, see the great golden staircase, and admire works by painters such as Titian, Tintoretto, and Bellini. We will also cross the Bridge of Sighs to visit the dungeons.

The second part of the tour will be dedicated to visiting the St. Mark's Basilica Museum. We will discuss the origins of the Basilica as we walk through the museum rooms.

During the tour, we will see the beautiful mosaics of the temple and the four Horses of St. Mark, which were brought from Constantinople.

After almost 2 hours and 30 minutes, we'll finish our tour in St. Mark's Square.
