   Doge's Palace

   Explore the Doge's Palace on a private tour that begins inside the restricted Secret Itineraries, where hidden archives, council rooms, and the torture chamber reveal the workings of the Venetian Republic. Continue into the attic to see high security prison cells, including the one tied to Casanova, and learn the stories behind his escape. After the backstage route, enjoy a complete tour of the palace's grand halls decorated with masterpieces and finish by crossing the Bridge of Sighs into the New Prisons for a final view of Venice's judicial past.
