Amazing Places of Beauty and History

Touring the world famous Doge’s Palace and St Mark’s Church was an amazing experience. I was struck by the beauty and deep history behind the early events leading to its construction. Both were filled with one of a kind sculptures and paintings adorning the walls and ceilings. Our tour guide, Zoe, was very knowledgeable about all aspects of its history. Our group asked a few questions about certain clocks and she explained that they were 24 hour clocks. She was patient with us, as well. Someone got sick just before we started and without hesitation, she demonstrated compassion and care. The tour lasted approximately 2 hours, but there were many opportunities for pictures and questions. If you’re touring in the winter months, be sure to wear warm clothing because neither place was heated. There were toilets available at the start. I would recommend this tour.

This is a must go to attraction in Venice. The guide and tour were terrific, although we went in low season when it was relatively quiet.
