★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 50 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $300Top rated

Review of a private Venice family tour covering St. Mark’s Basilica and Doge’s Palace with skip-the-line entry and a treasure hunt.

“Excellent tour of St. Mark's and Doge's Palace. Our tour guide Valentina was very engaged with our 9 and 11-yr old kids. She had a "Mary Poppins" bag with so much of wonderful surprises.

All in all very satisfied.”
