St. Mark's Basilica, Bell Tower & Doge's Palace: Guided Tour
About this experience
Visit St. Mark’s Square in Venice, home to the Doge’s Palace and St. Mark’s Basilica. A guide will show you the Basilica’s Byzantine art and explain the history behind the Doge’s Palace.
Look at the golden mosaics and marble inlays on the Basilica’s floors, while learning about its biblical scenes and history. Afterward, take a guided tour of the Doge's Palace, where Venetian political power was held for centuries. The Doge and his Council made decisions that shaped the Venetian Republic.
Then, go to St. Mark's Bell Tower. Use skip-the-line tickets and take a quick elevator ride up. See the city's famous landmarks from above, including the domes of St. Mark's Basilica.
