Great experience beyond my expectation. Magnificent ceiling pictures in the Marcus duomo and great rooms in the Doge palace. Preparing with the tickets before the visit was the right thing to do.
Saint Marks Basilica is absolutely stunning. I have been to Venice a few times but only for the Benalli and have never made it into this church. This time I brought my parents and we did the main sights. It was incredibly busy though, I think the guided tour groups, should be limited to small grouos once in the church. There is just not the room for them. Apart from them, it is absolutely breathtaking, the amount of workmanship and Craft that has gone into this building. Goodness knows how they keep it safe with that level of tourists every day. We did book early, which is advisable as there were no tickets available once you had arrived in Venice. The Doges Palace, had an untied ticket so we could make our own way there when we were ready which I thought was excellent. Once again, such a beautiful building, and very much worth a visit.
By booking the events in Venice in advance, we saved a lot of time to experience other beautiful things in Venice.

Everything went very well. I was a little worried because I was not familiar with this site and had read in a review that the tickets sold were not valid. Actually just follow the directions and go to pick up the physical tickets at a store near St. Mark's where they give out tickets with a QR code that is then scanned at the turnstiles and works perfectly. The audio guide must be downloaded to your phone. The advice is to download it outside St. Mark's because inside it does not pick up and you cannot use it. Tickets are purchased for a specific time but you can actually get in the entire hour before: our tickets for example were for 10:30 and we were able to validate them as early as 9:45, unexpectedly making up some time

We did "skip the line" tickets for St Mark's Basilica and the Doges Palace in Venice. All very quick, efficient and easy and saving us lots of time.
I would have given "Awesome" as our trip to The Doges Palace was indeed that but we were less impressed by St Mark's Basilica.
The wire cutter saves an enormous amount of time.

The Basilica was amazing. Beautiful, the view from the terrace is beautiful. If you have the Basilica and Doge tour together, you are no able to visit the terrace.
All tickets were skip-the-line and saved a lot of time for us, we did not wait anywhere on queues and inside all went perfect. Great experience, very easy to use.
The basilica was beautiful and worth it but wish I would have known we had to go to an entirely different location to get our actual tickets, about 5 minutes past the basilica after already walking 25 minutes to get there with 2 teen daughters
The basic audioguide is not worth the price of 20.euros vs. 6 for buying just.the.row saver which, however, is impossible to find because all slots are bought from agencies :( And the on-site audioguide costs much.less

Booking online and getting straight in without having to queue was wonderful. It was not too busy so aibwas able to view the rooms and art easily. I was able to stroll through the beautiful palace and enjoy the wonderful rooms and exhibits.
I would have given "Awesome" as our trip to The Doges Palace was indeed that but we were less impressed by St Mark's Basilica.
I was particularly impressed by the prison wing and the passage over the Bridge of Sighs, which you normally only see from the outside. Of course, the palace is magnificent and impressive. There are great frescoes and lovely details to discover.

What I loved the most about this experience was the history of Venice over 1000 years of power. I also never saw so much waeponry in my life and so well preserved. The sizes of the different halls are beyond what anyone could expect. Amazingly well preserved and or restored. Amazing preservation of the prison cells. Really enjoyed the visit.
The broad times available [12 - 6] was excellent as opposed to being strictly timed. We also visited the Correr gallery - which was extremely good - to fill in time before we visited the Palace. The Palace itself was extraordinary. So vast as to be overwhelming, so varied as to be challenging.
it is worth to book the skip the line entrance to St. Mark's Basilica in Venice. Direct entry without waiting in long lines. The price of 6 € per person is worth it. I recommend it. Simple.

We booked the queue-cutting tickets on the direct site, which saved us money compared with other sites. The wait was 10 minutes maximum for the visits. No regrets.

Our guide was absolutely wonderful, incredibly knowledgeable about the history of Venetian art, architecture, politics, and commerce. Tickets to both the Doge's Palace and St Mark's Basilica had already sold out by the time I thought to check, so I'm really glad I was able to see them this way. One tiny little thing - the meet up instructions said that the guide would be holding a particular sign, which they weren't, so I hung back for ages cause I couldn't tell which tour group was mine.
The experience was great, although finding the meeting location was a bit of a challenge ...our guide was very good...spent a good deal of time explaining and answering questions. She was very knowledgeable and threw in lots of stories and theories and susperstitions about the legends. Both St Marks and Doges Palace were worth the tour!
I like very much the tour guide. She was fantastic!
Our tour guide, Lorenzo, was fantastic! Extremely knowledgeable and created a setting where the history came back to life. I HIGHLY recommend booking the early morning tour before everything gets busy.
The highlight of my visit was the very informative guide, easy to understand , the tour flowed nicely and we were given plenty of time to take pictures
Lorenzo our tour guide was excellent and so knowledgeable, with humour thrown in, the early beat the line and the crowds made this an excellent experience
A bellisima experience in addition to what we visited, the guide was very knowledgeable, capturing our attention even in the moments of stalling in the short lines at the entrance.

Great tour guide, she was very informative and funny as well. It was very busy so a great move to pre book and miss the queues
Gina was an amazing tour guide! She was very knowledgeable and gave a little extra detail we loved her and felt very fortunate to have her as our guide! I have a way better understanding and appreciation for Venice after experiencing this tour.
The tour was very well documented and explained by the local guide. The skip-the-line entry worked perfectly, but inside you cannot avoid the huge crowd of people. At the meeting point please look for the local partner ¨flag¨, that is shown at the bottom of your reservation.
While we managed to ovetcome issues with finding the tour operator- it wasn't through headout as oer instructions, it was with a different local partner. Once we got this out of the way our guide Cristina was absolutely amazing. Very knowledgeable, beyond expectations. It was delivered in a interesting, full of exciting & details . Highly recommend if you lucky to have Cristina ad your guide.
We had a very nice guided tour through the Doge's Palace and then through the San Marco Basilica. The guide explained all the details and provided us with lots of information. A tip was to attend mass on Sunday morning at 10am or 12pm. A really special experience.
View original review in German
We were shown very little of San Marco. Other guided tours could be seen going up to the gallery level and doing a much more thorough tour of the church. Rather than one hour, we spent only about 20 minutes in the church. In the Doge's Palace, our guide did not give us much information on the art in each room. For instance, she did not mention names of artists, many of whom are quite famous. She gave us anecdotal stories, intended to be entertaining, but, on the whole, her information was quite superficial.
A little problem at the meeting point no Headour banner but was overcome Although we were given digital listening devices because U am slightly deaf found it difficult at times to understand guide. However. Both basilica and palace were extraordinary great experiance
Our guide was really passionate about the subject matter. Her story telling was very captivating and interesting. Thumbs up !!!
We devoted almost an hour to get into the Doge's House, another half hour to use the toilets. The tour was interesting but we felt we could have used more time and get more information at the Basílica. Needs improving.

Easy to book and then collect the tickets in Venice. St Mark's Basilica and Doge's Palace were really worth the visit Just make sure the audio guides are working whilst you are collecting tickets as ours for Doge's Palace didn't work and we had to purchase one inside the palace
It wasn't made clear when we booked that we'd have to treck to pick tickets up from the office before the tours and also we'd have to download an app to hear the tour. We thought the tickets would be emailed to us and we'd be given an audio set when we were there. We also didn't have any earpods with us. We enjoyed the tour nonetheless but it's just hassle when you're on holiday in a foreign country and have to run around picking tickets up.
Basilica and Doge's palace were good. Audio guide was easy to use and follow.

The guide was dificult to keep up with and quite difficult to understand. The guide had no interest in assisting us with the next part of our booking - the Gondola ride. THe booking dstated that we had a 2.5 hour experience. It actually turned out to be about one hour in the Basicila follwed by a 3.5 hour gap before a 20 minute gondola ride. Nowhere were we informed that this gap existed - I had to ring hte service number to speak to a representative who informed me tha thte gondola ride was taking place miud afternoon. This required us to rearrange our plans for our group of 10 people for hte remainder of the day.
our guide speaks English but it was so hard for our party of 7 to understand him, he speaks so fast and his accent is strong, we were not able to ubderstand most if what he was saying. the head phones they provided are not the best either. for the price we paid, would be nice if we get our money's worth but did not.

It was amazing seeing St. Mark. Headout was great. Suggest making it clearer as to how to contact ticket transfer person. Very unclear.
We would have been very happy if we had been clearly pointed out to the local organizer, and the address Colonna 5 could have used an explanation that it is located exactly between the 2 beksnnten columns....that was really unnecessary search! The local organizer (Crown Tours) does a great job! You also don't get the audio guide immediately after booking..as described....but only when you get your ticket....then you have to rush to the entrance....15 minutes is definitely too short! There is still room for improvement in the information content#

Ticketing was not complicated, at the venue getting in was straight forward. The Basilica was gorgeous, a real treasure.

The Triumphal Quadriga, or the Four Horses of St. Mark, stands imposingly against the Basilica's backdrop. Originating from 4th-century Greek art, their true origins spark debate, linked to both Rome and Constantinople. While primarily copper (about 96%), they're often called bronze statues. To protect the original from pollution, it's been moved inside the Basilica, with a replica now outside, still stunning.
As you ascend the stairs to St. Mark's Museum, you'll find the Sala dei Banchetti, or Banquet Hall. The room houses the intriguing red velvet throne of Doge's Chapel, embellished with various fabrics and tapestries. Conveniently, restroom facilities, a vending machine, and access to refreshing water bottles are available nearby, making it a perfect spot for a break.
The Basilica boasts a rich display of silk and silver tapestries dedicated to the life of St. Mark, a Christian missionary and gospel author. The museum also features woolen tapestries depicting episodes from the Passion of Christ, focusing on the events leading up to His death. Valuable for history enthusiasts, they offer a captivating glimpse into this pivotal Christian chapter.
The Museum hosts a vast collection of artifacts depicting pivotal moments from Christianity's history. It also displays architectural remnants from Italy, Greece, and Constantinople. Alongside the renowned Quadriga of St. Mark, there are exquisite mosaic sculptures with intricate paintings and floral designs on grand panels. Do admire the stunning 14th-century wood-based painting by Venetian artist Paolo Veneziano, illustrating the life story of St. Mark.
