What you can expect

Discover the magnificent Saint Mark's Basilica in Venice accompanied by a knowledgeable and passionate guide, explore a masterpiece where art, history, and spirituality blend into a truly unique experience. Avoid the long entrance line with your ticket and spend more time with the uncountable artworks that await you inside. The golden, shining, and noble views of the Basilica will leave you speechless!

Admire the incredible gold mosaics and marble inlays on the floors of this masterpiece of Byzantine art. The mosaics are composed of small golden tesserae covering an area of 43,000 square feet. These are not all the same size and have been intentionally arranged in irregular patterns in order to create a shiny, vibrant effect.

Continue your journey with an exciting virtual reality experience. With the VR headset on, time peels away, revealing Piazza San Marco and its iconic monuments as they once were. Picture the Basilica transformed into the Doge's private chapel and the Doge's Palace into a medieval fortress!
