## Description

Gain direct entry to the seat of Venetian power. This guided tour streamlines your visit to the Doge’s Palace, bypassing the long ticket lines. You will navigate the Gothic halls of the Great Council Chamber, view Tintoretto’s massive 'Paradiso' painting, and walk the same path as prisoners across the Bridge of Sighs to the Piombi and New Prisons. Continue to St. Mark’s Basilica, where your priority access includes the ground floor and the Pala d'Oro. This Byzantine altarpiece, encrusted with thousands of gems and pearls, remains one of the world's most valuable gold treasures. Your guide provides a headset to ensure you hear every detail of the history behind the golden mosaics without the crowd noise. Your ticket also includes self-guided access to the Museo Correr, the Museo Archeologico Nazionale, and the Monumental Rooms of the Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana located on St. Mark's Square. These sites offer a deeper look into the daily life and naval history of the Republic of Venice at your own pace.
