Pass By: Piazza San Marco, 31024 Venice Italy
We start in the world-famous St. Mark’s Square, taking a moment to appreciate the space before diving into St. Mark’s Cathedral. Here you will get a deep look at the way that Venice built a mercantile empire that once spanned the entire Mediterranean.
Stop At: Ponte dei Sospiri, Piazza San Marco, 1, 31024 Venice Italy
Finally, you’ll wander over the Bridge of Sighs and learn why this romantic icon is a little more grim than you have probably been taught.

Get special access to the terraces of St. Mark’s Basilica with spectacular views over Venice.

Next it’s off to the Doge’s Palace, where pre-reserved tickets once again get us past the lines and inside what was the political heart of the empire for hundreds of years.
