Description

For many centuries, the Doge's Palace was the seat of Venetian power. Legislative, executive and judicial administration were all centralized here under the supervision of the Doge.

With your fast-track tickets, you can skip the line and go directly to the entrance of the Doge's Palace. Inside, you'll learn about the history and the secrets of this unique building, as well as the politics implemented by the palace during the Middle Ages.

Your guide will tell you how parallel worlds intertwined inside this institution and will show you the galleries known as the "Alleys of Power". As you explore the palace you'll be able to admire its luxuriant interiors, adorned with gold and sumptuously decorated by the best artists of the time. Throughout your tour, your guide will reveal the secrets behind the Doge's Palace, from its design to its construction.

You will then pass outside the solid walls to cross the famous "Bridge of Sighs" and visit the palace's sinister prisons and torture chambers.

Save time waiting in line and get priority access to this must-see historic monument for a memorable tour of its stately rooms, gilded ceilings and prison cells!
