Ducal Venice

The first part of the tour will be panoramic, and will therefore take place outside, where you will be introduced to the fascinating history of this powerful republic.

The second part of the tour includes a guided visit of the Doge’s palace, a rich and imposing building where the city’s greatest power was concentrated, overlooking the San Marco Basin. You will stop to admire the Golden Staircase, and be dazzled by the gilt stuccowork and paintings that wind along the ramps leading to the Ducal Apartment and the chambers of the Venetian government, the Great Council Room Bridge of Sighs linking the palace’s Judiciary chambers with the New Prisons...

Where even you might let a sigh escape you at the astonishingly lovely view of the lagoon and the island of San Giorgio Maggiore, as did the condemned men when they were led off to prison.

Meeting point

Under the Clock Tower, in piazza San Marco, please be shure to arrive 15 minutes before the tour begins.
