Skip the line was quicker although there weren't long lines in the other cue on my day . Everything was signposted well with arrows to follows the direction to go through the rooms . Was very interesting , definitely do when in Venice . There are a second lot of toilets when you begin just up the stairs , otherwise the line at the ground level ones The only problem I had was the audio guide through Headout would not download so that was a waste of $ . .

Ticket sent by WhatsApp and on the app easy to retrieve. No problem for the entry cut wire . Interesting audio guide and practical tips for getting around the site. The only drawback is the audio guide app, which often has to be restarted because it stops during the explanation. but the visit was very good despite this technical problem 🤗

The art in the palace was amazing. My only criticism was that the website said small backpacks were allowed. Mine, however, was not allowed so it had to be stored. Other people were, however, allowed to take theirs. My tickets were in mine and we hadn't realised we'd need to show them again. Fortunately we had them on one of our phones.

    The tickets took us straight in, avoiding the queues (you have to check in any backpacks past security but it's free to do so). We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the Doges Palace. A great mixture of opulence in the Palace itself, compared to the Bridge of Sighs and dungeons which we found really interesting. Spent around 2hours there. We paid a little bit extra for the audio tour which was really in depth- we would have been ok just looking at the information boards in each room!

    On October 6, 2025, I loved visiting the Doge's Palace, and the entire entry process was greatly facilitated with the ticket I purchased, without having to wait a single minute in any line. The audio guide was very informative and full of information. Congratulations on the excellent service you provide.

    The Doge's Palace was a highlight of our trip to Venice. Having skip the line tickets made entry to the site a breeze and we were happy to avoid the long line waiting to purchase tickets on-site. We added the audio guide to the palace, which I would highly recommend.

    Renting the headset tour was well worth the money. Excellent guide and explanation of all the aspects of the Diges palace along with details of the sumptuous art. Well worth the visit.
