St. Mark’s Square

Meet your guide in the beautiful St. Mark’s Square, where you’ll get your introduction to this vast piazza’s significance to the city and Venetian Republic. Within the square, you’ll recognize the Doge’s Palace, Grand Canal and of course, the gilded wonder of St. Mark’s Basilica. Just staring at the Basilica’s façade will enamor you, enchanting you to explore more on your exclusive visit.

Privileged Evening Access to St. Mark’s Basilica

Yes, we said it. You would be the ONLY group inside of St. Mark’s Basilica during your tour, which makes you a VIP. As you make your way inside the tranquil and empty Basilica, you’ll notice byzantine mosaics lining the entryway. Your expert guide will shed light on the frescoes inside, illuminating the stories behind Mark the Evangelist.

Underground Crypts

Balanced with the palatial gold adorning the walls, ceilings and frescoes within the Basilica, the crypts offer a more eerie aesthetic. Descend underground to find the crypt that’s said to be the burial place of St. Mark himself. 

Golden Altarpiece

Commonly nicknamed the Church of Gold or Chiesa d’Oro, St. Mark’s Basilica is home to countless golden artifacts, from its façade to the altar. Covered in precious gems, this altarpiece is a spectacle to see up close, which the daytime crowds struggle to see. Your guide will explain the piece’s significance and walk you through its depictions of the lives of Christ and St. Mark.
