VIVE OTRA EXPERIENCIA
Visit one of the most impressive monuments in Venice, the St. Mark's Basilica. Built in the 9th century to house the body of St. Mark, it was rebuilt in Byzantine style a century later after a fire.
On this tour, you will have skip-the-line access to St. Mark's Basilica, where an expert guide will accompany you to explore all its corners. Inside, thanks to the guide, you will discover the history of the monument and understand why Byzantine art intertwines with Romanesque style. Its majestic gold mosaics and the Golden Altarpiece, its main altar decorated with precious stones, showcase the clear influence of the Byzantine style on this building. Additionally, you will visit the Treasury, a collection of religious art and liturgical objects from the time of the Republic of Venice.
