This tour takes you back to the golden age of the city, passing through the living rooms of the Doge's Palace, the residence of the Duke of the Venetian Republic and the seat of Venetian political power for centuries.
Tour Details
At the specified time, we will meet in the center of Venice to explore one of its most famous monuments. During this guided tour of the Doge's Palace, we will visit the art-filled rooms where the Doge and his advisors controlled the republic for over 1,000 years.
We will explore various halls, ascend the golden stairs, and appreciate the grand paintings of the era, immersing ourselves in the atmosphere of the Middle Ages.
