What to expect
The Doge’s Palace is a masterpiece of Venetian Gothic architecture and the ultimate symbol of the Venetian Republic's historical glory. For centuries, this opulent palace served as the official residence of the Doge (the supreme ruler of Venice), the seat of the government, and the courthouse. Inside, you can walk through grand council chambers adorned with golden ceilings and masterpieces by Renaissance titans like Tintoretto and Veronese.
Known as the "Church of Gold," St. Mark’s Basilica is a breathtaking masterpiece of Italo-Byzantine architecture and the crown jewel of Venice’s religious history. Originally built in the 9th century to house the relics of St. Mark the Evangelist, this cathedral served for centuries as the Doge’s private chapel before becoming the city's official cathedral.
The Bridge of Sighs is one of Venice’s most iconic and romantic landmarks, though its origins are surprisingly dark. Built in 1600 from brilliant white Istrian limestone, this enclosed, Renaissance-style bridge spans the narrow palace canal to connect the interrogation rooms inside the Doge’s Palace to the New Prisons.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
