Pro tips to help you make a pick

Doge’s Palace is included in a combo ticket that offers priority access, optional entry to Museo Correr, the Archaeological Museum, and the Biblioteca Marciana, plus an English audio guide. Peak season crowds can be intense, but skip-the-line tickets save you 30 minutes to an hour.

Opt for a guided tour to gain insights into the palace's exciting history, art, and architecture - an excellent last-minute option if standard tickets are sold out. Audio guides are also available for a more flexible exploration.

Venice Museum Pass gives access to St. Mark’s Square museums and several others across Venice, offering flexibility and savings. It’s valid for 6 months once activated and can be used within 24 months of purchase. Show your emailed pass (printed or digital) for easy entry.

Unlike standard Doge’s Palace Secret Itineraries Tour dives into dark side of Venetian justice and politics with fascinating legends and anecdotes. These tours are highly sought-after, so book early!

Did you know?

The Scala d'Oro, or Golden Staircase was used as an exclusive route for esteemed guests and dignitaries to access the Doge's apartments and state rooms. It was named for its lavish gold stucco decorations.

The palace's infamous "Bridge of Sighs" earned its name as it connected the interrogation rooms to the New Prisons, and prisoners would reportedly sigh at their final view of Venice.

The Doge's Palace is home to the largest canvas in Venice, titled Il Paradiso by Jacopo Tintoretto. It depicts over 500 figures, ready to ascend Heaven, with Jesus and Mary in the middle.

An ancient (and strange!) ritual known as the "Wedding of the Sea" took place at The Doge's Palace every year, where the Doge would get 'married' to the sea. This was used to symbolize Venice's maritime power.

The Sala del Maggior Consiglio (Grand Council Chamber) in Doge's Palace was one of the largest rooms in Europe at the time it was built. It could hold up to 2,000 members of the Venetian nobility, who gathered to discuss and vote on important matters of state.

Why visit The Doge's Palace?

Spectacular. We'd never seen a palace this big before. We loved every single room. With your ticket, you need to go to the entrance of line 4 to exchange it for a physical ticket, and then you can go right in.

We managed to get last minute tickets thrrough Headout as our usual route for booking kept saying fully booked. It was fairly easy to get the vouchers when we arrived at the Doge's Palace and the visit did not dissapoint. So much opulence and history of how venice was run. Wall to wall gold and art history, the Venitians way of telling the story of Venice. We are lucky enough to photograph everything we see in this day and age. An amazing experience.

The guide Alessia spoke very clear English and what she told us was very interesting. It was easy to find the group at the beginning and we were informed in time of all the necessary changes. The basilica is unique and beautiful... you have to see it! The cathedral too... It contains many masterpieces by famous Venetian artists...

Easy to follow instructions, found our guide easily. The earphone and speaker we were each given was amazing. My husband wears hearing aids and worried he might not be able to hear, but even if a way away from your tourguide you don't miss anything with the earpiece. Our guide was fantastic, hearing bits from someone born and raised lin Venice was great! Basilica, Douges Palace, bit of the dungeons and glass demo! Highly recommend, well worth the price.
