Embark on a guided tour of one of the most impressive landmarks in Venice: the Doge's Palace. Visit this former residence of the Doge of Venice, and explore what was once the center of the Venetian Republic's political rulings and public administration. Enjoy skip-the-line access and head straight indoors to take in its many features — including gold staircases and exquisite examples of Byzantine architecture. Your guide's expert commentary — made easily to hear through use of an audio headset — will transport you back in time.

    This was a great overview of the palace and also included crossing the bridge of sighs and the dungeons. Our guide had lots of knowledge and was happy to answer questions. Definitely make sure you go inside the palace on your trip to admire more than from the outside!
