Venice: Doge's Palace Skip-the-Line Entry + Audioguide App
Overview
Discover Venice’s iconic landmarks with an experience combining the Doge’s Palace, St. Mark’s Basilica, and, depending on your selected option, St. Mark’s Campanile.
Explore the Doge’s Palace at your own pace with a multilingual digital audioguide. Discover its grand chambers, masterpieces, the Bridge of Sighs, and historic prisons while learning about the Venetian Republic.
Options including St. Mark’s Basilica feature a live guide in your selected language for the Basilica portion of the visit. Admire its golden mosaics, domes, marble details, and rich history with live explanations inside.
