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.

We bought an ACTV pass each for our stay in Venice. It proved to be very convenient for getting around, both on the island and in the surrounding area. We were able to use the buses and vaporetto to get where we wanted to go using a card that the distributors give you on site after ordering online. I recommend it, it's more economical.

These tickets granted us fast and easy access that made entering the palace a smooth journey. We had direct entry through a separate entrance that was conveniently located next to Ponte della Paglia. Definitely a great and worthwhile visit to understand the history behind the Most Serene Republic of Venice!

What a magical experience. you have the whole basilica to yourselves ( there were fewer than 20 of us) and got to see corners of the building you I would never see as an ordinary visitor. Phillipo, our guide, was absolutely superb-the most incredibly succinct and funny explanation of St Marco's place in history but also how the building worked. But the greatest coup de theatre was the start, when the lights inside were slowly turned on and we saw the full extraordinary beauty of the space. The fastest and most incredible hour I've spent in years, and couldn't recommend it highly enough.
