Meeting Point : Venice - St. Mark's Square, Piazza San Marco, 30124 Venice, Italy

If you are looking for the perfect start to your time in Venice, this is the tour for you. Engage the services of a private guide for a three-hour private or semi-private walking tour of one of Italy's most famous cities.

Meet your professionally licensed guide at St. Mark's Square, next to the column with the lion, for either a morning or afternoon tour. This tour focuses on the main points of interest in and around St. Mark's Square, most notably St. Mark's Cathedral. Admire the Italo-Byzantine architecture of this structure, originally constructed in the 11th century. It came to be known as the city's cathedral only recently, in 1807. After your time in Chiesa d'Oro, you will continue on to Doge's Palace. Please note that entrance to this site is tourist volume-dependent.

Founded in 1340, it was the residence of the Doge of Venice (the Duke), who was the highest authority of the former Venetian Republic. It was transformed into a museum in 1923 and remains one of the main landmarks in present-day Venice.

After this richly informative tour, you will be ready to continue exploring the amazing City of Canals!
