Your Experience

The Doge’s Palace in Venice presents itself majestically when arriving from the sea. Known also as Palazzo Ducale, it served as a political and administrative hub for the Venice Republic—from its inception until its fall—symbolizing La Serenissima's grandeur. The palace fulfilled three essential roles: government seat, justice house, and Doge’s residence. A tour of this historic site reveals an abundance of Renaissance artistry, elaborate staircases, luxurious chambers, and impressive entrances that captivate visitors with Venice's opulent past.

Your visit is enhanced by the Skip-the-line access to the Palace, allowing you more time exploring its treasures rather than waiting in queues. Next, explore the Royal Palace, now known as Museo Correr, which once housed Venice’s esteemed Procurators. This museum stands out among those on St. Mark's Square for being constructed during Napoleon's reign over Venice.

Enclosed by the Procuratie Nuove and Vechie buildings—originally part of Napoleon’s royal residence—the building served Empress Elisabeth of Austria until 1946, after which it continued as a museum. Visitors to these Royal Palaces can delve into the cultural tapestry, history, and contemporary lifestyle of Venice with insights provided by your multilingual guidebook.

Wear comfortable shoes as there will be a fair bit of walking involved during this tour.
