1. 1

   Meet your private guide in the heart of Venice and begin with an introduction to St. Mark’s Square, the ceremonial and political center of the Venetian Republic. From the Basilica’s domes to the façade of the Doge’s Palace, your guide sets the scene for the story you are about to uncover.

2. 2

   Enter St. Mark’s Basilica with fast-track access and step into one of Venice’s most extraordinary interiors. Look up at vast golden mosaics shimmering across the domes and arches while your guide reveals the stories, symbols and Eastern influences behind the Basilica’s unmistakable design.

   Rather than simply walking through the monument, your private guide can tailor the explanation to your interests, giving you time to notice the artistic and architectural details that are easily missed when visiting independently.

   Doge's Palace

   Continue to the Doge’s Palace, the former seat of Venetian government and the residence of the Doge. Walk through imposing ceremonial rooms and richly decorated chambers while discovering how Venice’s rulers governed a maritime empire through diplomacy, commerce and carefully guarded political power. See monumental works by some of Venice’s greatest artists and uncover the contrast between the palace’s magnificent public rooms and the darker side of the Republic’s justice system.
