  • Find out legends and anecdotes behind the many biblical scenes painted inside!
  • Experience one of the most breathtaking and holy sights in Venice

During your Venetian vacation, you can't miss one of the most majestic cathedrals in the world, Saint Mark's Basilica! Discover the iconic building located in Saint Mark's Square, where the church's interior is just as beautiful as its exterior.

Your last-minute ticket includes an audio guide so you can start enjoying commentary that delves into the five-domed cathedral and its uncountable artworks. Don't worry about a dodgy audio device, this guide plays straight from your smartphone.

Discover masterpieces of Byzantine art, the floor's marble inlays, and incredible gold mosaics - the Basilica has 43,000 square feet of mosaic alone! The Basilica's mosaics are composed of small golden tesserae, placed irregularly to result in a shiny, vibrant effect.

Prepare to be dazzled as you step inside.

Collect your ticket, the code for your audio guide and the guidebook at the meeting point.

While it is pretty to look at inside it was hard to walk around. It seemed you had to pay extra to see other parts of the Basilica which was off putting. Honestly, if it is too busy, I would say...
