Overview

Skip the line and step straight into one of Venice’s most iconic landmarks: St. Mark’s Basilica. With your priority ticket and included audio guide, you’ll discover the incredible stories behind over 8,000 square metres of golden mosaics, marble columns, and centuries of sacred history.

Unlike standard entry, this ticket offers the freedom to explore at your own pace and the option to upgrade your visit with access to the Pala d’Oro, a stunning golden altarpiece encrusted with gems, and the Terrace and Loggia dei Cavalli, where you’ll enjoy breathtaking views over St. Mark’s Square and see replicas of the famous bronze horses up close.

This experience is perfect for travellers who want cultural depth without time constraints. No rushing, no waiting—just art, history, and the magic of Venice.
