Italy · VENICE TOURS
The city itself is free to wander, so the money goes on getting inside things and out onto the water. These 15 sort the Doge’s Palace, the basilica, the gondola and the lagoon islands by price, timing and how much walking each one hides.
Enter Venice’s Doge’s Palace with a reserved ticket, cross the Bridge of Sighs, and explore Correr Museum and St. Mark’s historic rooms.
“I chose this option for the wider entrance time window, 12-6pm and it worked perfectly. The palace has so much to see that you could be overwhelmed, it might have worth researching the must see things prior to the visit. That said, it is excellent.”
Ride Venice’s Grand Canal and quiet side canals, hear app commentary, visit the Gondola Gallery, and see La Fenice, Salute, and St. Mark’s Basin.

“Mirko was AMAZING guide, loved his charming personality and stories! The only downside was the big line to enter the Dodge’s palace so once inside we basically had to run trough it quickly because the excursion time was going to an end. It’s nice we were able to come back again to the palace and walk trough it by ourselves without a rush.”
Review of Venice’s Murano, Burano, and Torcello boat tour, with glassblowing, lagoon views, practical tips, timing, and value advice.
“This trip was one of my best decisions to book via a trip on line tool. This operator was fantastic from start when you meet at the desk to the the landing back in Venice. The boat was clean and the crew and guide were great. well organised and well worth the day with a full 6 hours with plenty of time to visit the islands. Morano glass factory was a walk of the desk straight into the factory glass blowing display. highly recommend.”

“Doing this tour is a great way to get a view of the lagoon and closer look at some of the islands that are part of Venice. But it’s difficult to hear the guide on the microphone and the stops are touristy. Recommend taking the vaporetto on your own and exploring on your own.”
