Enter the Doge's Palace with priority access
and see Venice by alley and canal

This tour of about 3 hours starts with priority entrance to the Doge's Palace, continues with a guided walk from St. Mark's Square to the Rialto Bridge, and ends with a gondola ride. Tickets to the Doge's Palace and the museums of St. Mark's Square are included.

Step inside the Doge's Palace

You enter the Doge's Palace through the Porta del Frumento on the waterfront. The palace symbolized the politics and administration of the Venetian Republic and housed the Doge's residence, the government, a court, and a prison. Admire the architecture that blends Byzantine, Gothic, and Renaissance styles, and see the Bridge of Sighs.

Walk from St. Mark's Square to the Rialto Bridge

After leaving the palace, walk through Venice's streets with your guide from St. Mark's Square to the Rialto Bridge. Pass through the busy shopping district into quiet back alleys by calm water, where the old fondaci and the architectural details of the market hint at the city's trading history.

Tickets to the museums of St. Mark's Square, including the Correr Museum, the Archaeological Museum, and the Marciana Library, are included in the tour.

Glide along the canals by gondola

At the end of the tour, ride a shared gondola along the canals of Venice for 30 minutes. As the gondolier takes you through the canals and small waterways, see the city from a viewpoint you can only get from the water.
