Explore two of Venice's most famous monuments with this St. Mark's Basilica + Doge's Palace Tour. Numerous works of art and impressive 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. Are you ready?

First, we'll visit the famous Doge's Palace, which represented the political power of Venice for centuries. The palace served as the official residence of the Doges, the highest leaders of the Republic of Venice. We'll explain the power held by these leaders as we enter the palace.

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

The second part of the tour will focus on the St. Mark's Basilica Museum. We'll discuss the origins of the Basilica as we walk through the museum rooms.

During the tour, we'll see the beautiful mosaics of the temple and the four Horses of St. Mark. These bronze sculptures were brought from Constantinople.

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