The experience started on a great note by being able to skip the long line and just go in and start going through the different rooms in the Palace. The explanations of the use of each rooms and of the art in them was also very helpful. Even though it was in July, it was not too crowded. I also enjoyed the views to the city from opened windows and the view from the Bridge of sighs was a highlight. Highly recommended visit when in Venice.

Doge’s Palace is an essential destination for visitors to Venice—melding drama, history, and visual splendor. The grandeur of its architecture and the emotional contrast between gilded state rooms and somber prisons craft a compelling narrative of power and justice. Guided tours bring hidden areas to life; self-led visits still impress, though reservation is recommended to avoid long waits.

The ticket is good for traveling and you can ride everything. Simply check in. However, the purchase is cumbersome, buy online, go to some vending machine I know where and then print out the ticket. I understand that it has to be printed out, otherwise you can't ride the water bus, the barrier to the ride only opens when you put on the ticket

    Carefree use of the water bus all day long without having to buy tickets all the time. It's a very convenient way to explore the city. The ticket worked perfectly at every station. The first time we received the tickets via the code at the machine also went smoothly

    Enjoyed the ease of getting on and off when needed and not having to worry about getting a separate ticket at each time we wanted to go somewhere. If in doubt about which taxi to get on, there was always somebody around to answer a question..
