Our family of four (two teenage boys) thoroughly enjoyed both attractions. Not having to queue and getting onto the terrace of St. Mark's Basilica was a massive bonus especially with two teenage boys! Our wonderful guide (Laura) was so passionate and knowledgeable and the use of the headphones made it very easy to hear her as there was so much information being passed on. Three hours is plenty to see both attractions and then to finish up going through the Bridge of Sighs was such a magical experience. Would highly recommend this tour!

Our guide was extremely knowledgeable, understandable, and personal. The tour was packed with information and history. Having been to Venice once before, I can say that this tour really made all the difference in the world as I now have a much better understanding of the rich history of Venice.

A must see tour. We have the first tour in the morning, and the place to ourselves for the first hour. Denise was absolutely fantastic! She was well informed, and we felt like we knew her for years.

Our tour guide Iole is very knowlegeable about St. Mark Basilica and Doge's Palace. She is also very considerate to take care of all of us, to make sure we have fast entry to Doge's Palace, photo-taking opportunities, timely toilet break and short sitting rest so we were all comfortable while following her tour.
