Description

Two Best Ways to Experience Venice’s Icons Discover the beauty and history of St. Mark’s Square with flexible ticket options that let you explore Venice’s most famous landmarks at your own pace. Each experience includes skip-the-line entry, audioguides, and hosted access, giving you the freedom to enjoy the city’s masterpieces without the stress of queues or fixed schedules. Step inside St. Mark’s Basilica, a dazzling masterpiece of Byzantine art. Hosted entry ensures a smooth visit, while the included audioguide reveals the stories behind its golden mosaics and treasures that have inspired visitors for centuries. Then, cross the square to the Doge’s Palace, where you’ll walk through grand halls, council chambers, and the Bridge of Sighs. With your audioguide, uncover tales of power, intrigue, and justice that once ruled the Venetian Republic. Choose the Combo Ticket to visit both landmarks, or upgrade to the Campanile Option to add hosted access to St. Mark’s Bell Tower. From the top, enjoy breathtaking panoramic views over Venice, the lagoon, and its historic rooftops. Both options start at Piazzetta San Marco, right in the heart of Venice, and are perfect for travelers who want a complete, flexible, and immersive experience of the city’s most iconic sights.
