Explore St Mark’s Basilica without the crowds on an after-hours tour, and enjoy an optional visit to Doge's Palace (if selected at the time of booking). Inside St Mark’s Basilica, admire treasured mosaics and a Byzantine altarpiece, and then follow your guide into the crypt where St Mark himself is believed to rest.
Upgrade for late access to the Doge’s Palace by selecting the upgrade option at time of booking. With this option learn about the Higher Council Hall, the Doge's apartments, and the Bridge of Sighs as you explore.
Please note that there may be a break of up to 1 hour between your Doge’s Palace tour and your exclusive After Hour Visit, due to temporary earlier closing time at the Doge’s Palace. Your guide in this case will provide bar/restaurant recommendations

Really unique experience seeing the Basilica at night without the crowds. Julia was a great guide. You get to spend a lot more time inside than on a regular tour.

This tour took us to fabulous parts of Venice, without the crowds. Tour guide Nicco brought together huge knowledge, a passion for the places and a sense of humour. The effect was sensational, a tour we will remember for the rest of our lives.

Fun tour with Marco. He was very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor adding cheer to the evening. Sitting in the dimly lit basilica in anticipation and having the evening lights turned on to reveal the mosaics left us in awe. Beautiful works, interesting history, well organized and executed tour. Highly recommend.

Our guide was a formally trained art historian from Venice and was incredible. We learned so much during the tour and were able to truly enjoy the experience as there were no crowds. Exceptional tour!

Grazia was very informative. Great personality and very friendly. Took time to answer all our questions. The San Marco and Doge palace after dark tour was well worthwhile.

We had a great tour. Our guide, Pamela, was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of information. Her English was good! Being able to see both places after hours, fewer people, and more time to browse was worth every penny spent.
