The Experience

Your experience Unlock Venice’s top landmarks with skip-the-line entry to St. Mark’s Basilica, Doge’s Palace, and three museums, all with one cost-saving combo. Getting started Begin at St. Mark’s Basilica or Doge’s Palace by simply showing your mobile ticket at the designated entrance. Security checks and ticket validation are required before you enter; staff will guide you to your audio guide and provide a digital map for self-paced exploration. What to expect St. Mark’s Basilica Known as the ‘Golden Basilica’ for its 43,000 square feet of gold mosaics, St. Mark’s is a masterpiece of Byzantine art and Venice’s most iconic church. The basilica’s exterior features arches and turrets, while inside, biblical scenes and marble inlays tell centuries-old stories. Golden mosaics: Admire intricate panels crafted from pure gold, depicting episodes from Saint Mark’s life and biblical events. Ceiling and floor artistry: Look up to see the gold and blue mosaic ceilings, and down for detailed marble inlays and pillars. Audio guide insights: Listen to stories and legends behind the mosaics, statues, and animal motifs as you explore at your own pace. Byzantine treasury: Discover a collection of metalwork, enamel, and hardstone carvings in the basilica’s treasury. Doge’s Palace & Three St. Mark’s Museums Once the seat of Venice’s political power, the Doge’s Palace (Palazzo Ducale) is famed for its Renaissance masterpieces, grand staircases, and opulent rooms. Your pass also includes entry to the Museo Correr, Archaeological Museum, and monumental rooms of the Marciana Library, all located in St. Mark’s Square. Doge’s Palace: Explore lavish halls, monumental entryways, and relics from Venice’s days as a maritime republic. Museo Correr: Trace Venice’s history through art, artifacts, and historical exhibits. Archaeological Museum: View ancient sculptures, coins, and classical antiquities. Marciana Library: Step into the monumental rooms of one of Italy’s oldest public libraries, renowned for its Renaissance architecture.
