What to expect

Discover the world-famous floating city of Venice on a 2-5-hour tour, go back in history and marvel at the Venetian architecture narrated by a local professional guide. Gain early access to Doge's Palace, before the normal public, and admire this wonder in a whole new light. Then, take a Skip-the-line priority access guided tour to St. Mark's Basilica and its terrace.

Follow your guide on a small-group tour to the most iconic architectural monuments of Venice. Enter Doge's Palace in the early morning and have time to appreciate the art adorning the walls of the former residence of the Doge of Venice - without the crowds. Cross the Bridge of Sighs, and learn about the anguish of the prisoners that would have walked across the same bridge.

Then, use your skip-the-line access to the St Mark's Basilica, and go inside to see the golden Basilica, one of the best-known examples of Italo-Byzantine architecture in the world. Finally, head to its rooftop and enjoy the breathtaking panoramic views from the top including Piazza San Marco, the island of San Giorgio, the Campanile and the Clock Tower.

After your Venetian experience, don't forget to ask your guide for additional places to visit on your own around the city, such as restaurants, scenic locations, the best spots for shopping and souvenir hunting.
