## Description

Maximize your time in Venice by combining the two most important sites in one streamlined morning or afternoon. You start at the Doge's Palace, where you bypass the public ticket lines to access the seat of the Venetian Republic. Your guide leads you through the Sala del Maggior Consiglio to view Tintoretto's massive 'Paradiso' and across the Bridge of Sighs into the New Prisons. Next, enter St. Mark's Basilica through a dedicated entrance. Avoid the wait to see the 8,000 square meters of gold mosaics and the Pala d'Oro. This tour focuses on the architectural power and political history of Venice, ensuring you see the primary highlights without getting lost in the crowds. The small-group format ensures you can hear your guide clearly as you navigate the narrow corridors of the Armoury and the grand Scala d'Oro. This is the most efficient way to see the best of Piazza San Marco in under three hours.
