Highlights

Add the St. Mark's Basilica, the Golden Cathedral of faith and power
Explore halls, courts, prisons and cross the Bridge of Sighs
Start with a VR journey showing Doge's Palace as a medieval fortress
Itinerary
Unveil the Code of Doge's Palace, the true heart of Venetian power, on a guided tour led with passion and intrigue.

Your experience begins in the History Gallery, where historical images and an immersive VR journey visually recreate Venice through the centuries when Doge's Palace still stood as a medieval fortress dominating St. Mark's Square.

Step inside the palace to explore its magnificent halls of government, secret courts and historic prisons, uncovering how Venice ruled through law, control and secrecy. Cross the Bridge of Sighs, the final passage between judgment and imprisonment, and hear the dramatic story of Giacomo Casanova, whose legendary escape from these very prisons remains one of Venice's most thrilling tales.

Enhance your journey with a guided visit to St. Mark's Basilica, the spiritual symbol of the Republic. Known as the Golden Basilica, its breathtaking mosaics shimmer with pure gold, revealing how faith and political power were inseparably linked in Venetian history.

Complete the journey with the exclusive Gondola Experience™. Begin in the Gondola Gallery, where the history and symbolism of Venice's most iconic boat come to life, then glide onto the water for a unique perspective of the city. Discover Venice as it was meant to be seen from its canals floating past elegant palaces, hidden waterways, and the open views of the Grand Canal for an unforgettable finale.
